The Barcelona municipality is a driving force in the creation of
city employment, well-being and opportunity. What can the world
learn from the Barcelona model? What should municipal governments
priorities be when committing to this development model? What are

lecturer to cities across the world (Singapore, Ho Chi Minh City,
Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Doha, Dubai, Oslo, Prague, Moscow and Bogota,
to name a few), SMART CITY Barcelona presents twelve theoretical
and practical lessons for all citizens, civil servants,

that makes best use of the resources and human assets peculiar to a
city has attracted popular attention and social media comment as
people view this new vision as the promotion of the artistic,
spiritual and political life of the city they live in.
