Smart cities are places where services and networks are made more efficient with use of different types of electronic methods and digital solutions for the advantage of its locals and businesses. The gathered information and big data are then used to manage assets, resources, and services efficiently to improve the operations across the city. Smartness is about networks of interconnected entities that collaborate to develop the collective competitiveness of the ecosystem.\u00a0Smart Cities and Tourism: Co-creating experiences, challenges and opportunities<\/b>\u00a0provides new insights into the current issues, opportunities, and concepts for the next generation of urban evolution.<\/p>\n

The smart cities of tomorrow engage locals, visitors, governments and businesses in an intelligent, collaborative and connected ecosystem. Smart tourism integrates the entire tourism ecosystem and supports the value cocreation for all stakeholders.
