This book provides information and resources to city planners and
other public policy officials on the importance of smart
sustainable cities and their relationship with urban
knowledge-based economy. It answers important topical questions
relating to urban sustainable development and human well-being,
namely, how can we implement policies and programs that can make
cities “smart” and boost their knowledge-based development? How
can such programs reduce inequalities and enhance the environment
where people live and work? The authors suggest a new approach to
the creation of sustainable smart cities, not only in metropolises
but also in smaller urban spaces. They advance the body of
knowledge in entrepreneurship literature by examining both the
European regional understanding of entrepreneurship and the quality
of life and well-being at city levels. They also provide synthetic
indexes to assess the relationship between perceived quality of
life and entrepreneurship. This book stimulates the debate
on the role of smart cities in promoting entrepreneurship, which is
a currently under-investigated topic in Europe, and is of interest
to a wide range of practitioners, professionals and academics in
the area of well-being and quality of life research, urban studies,
public policy, and sustainable development.
