City – Czech Smart City Cluster

Municipality partnership

Each city is unique, shaped by its history and location, and the citizens who live in it. In order to develop successfully, it must create modern strategies for the development of public spaces, which address a number of challenges and ensure the long-term sustainability of the city.

We strive to develop a unique partnership between companies, government, cities, knowledge institutions and residents. We strive to build smart cities in which social and technological infrastructures and solutions make life easier for people and support sustainable economic growth. We believe these trends improve the quality of life in cities for all their inhabitants and cities, thus becoming a pleasant environment for living and working.

Thanks to this cooperation, cities can share technical know-how, learn from good examples in the Czech Republic and abroad, and they can use some of our tools for methodological support and analysis.

We invite all cities to cooperate, which is implemented on the basis of a memorandum of cooperation, which is concluded according to the current needs and interests of the city.
