Smart world: An online platform for international dissemination of Amsterdam's smart solutions

Amsterdam Smart City is a collaboration effort between industry, academia and municipality of Amsterdam. Their core function is facilitation of pilot project throughout the city for their partners, to test smart solutions which can solve urban issues. This organisation receives a lot of attention from international cities to see successes from these projects with their own eyes. These visits are a large opportunity for their partners to market their successes to international cities. However, these opportunities for international collaboration cannot be identified by the organisation, given its large amount of partners. This results in partners not being involved in these visits from international organisations. An answer to this problem is Smart world. This platform gives international organisations interested in ASC’s partners the ability to submit a request, which is reviewed by its partners to give a clear ‘yes or no’ to host this organisation in Amsterdam or not. Connecting these international organisations and partners in an early stages enables identification of opportunities for city collaboration to tackle urban issues together. In addition, partners are able to spot their own international opportunities abroad to expand their market. Lastly, given the input that is required from these international organisations, a database is built with valuable data about international urban development. This is highly valuable for the municipality of Amsterdam. This not only gives them the ability to compare its city’s development stage with other cities, but also gives all Amsterdam the ability to help create a smarter world.
