PARIS SMAR T AND SUSTAINABLE - LOOKING AHEAD TO 2020 AND BEYOND
Since we believe that
     each city has its own context
 and that there are no urban models,
   but rather sources of inspiration,
        Paris’s urban intelligence
  is reflected in a unique approach.
   Paris is carving out its own path,
at a time when the world is becoming
          massively urbanized,
       global cities are becoming
         increasingly influential
 and our lives are being transformed
   by digital technologies as well as
major climate and energy imperatives.
         Like many other cities,
      Paris must strive to become
     more connected, sustainable,
   attractive, inclusive and resilient.

The challenges:
Urbanization, resource scarcity
and climate change
Paris, a vibrant city, is reinventing itself through its demographic energy and
remarkable economic potential. The city must capitalize on this vitality to tackle the
challenges it currently faces at the beginning of the 21st century. In today’s rapidly
urbanizing world, climate change is speeding up, biodiversity is deteriorating and
natural resources are becoming scarce. This unprecedented pressure must shake
our collective conscience, leading us to improve and reduce resource use and limit
our impact on our surrounding environment.

The opportunities:
Digital transformation
The 21st-century convergence of a global shift towards an urbanized world
where people and objects are always connected has completely changed the way
we live in cities.
No aspect of urban life has escaped this transformation. Housing, the environment,
education, culture, transportation, health care, safety, energy, water, waste, as well as
governance and citizen life have all been affected by this dual revolution of uses and
digital technologies.
A strong link has materialized between the multiplicity of smart devices, geolocation
and connected citizens on the go. In this century of cities, our physical world has
become a generator of real-time data. This production is ubiquitous, massive,
decentralized and highly autonomous. It has profoundly changed models of uses and
services as well as economic ones. New life experiences emerge through
groundbreaking uses and services and the intensive use of platforms and data.
Data is at the center of this phenomenon and has become a key resource because it is
accessible to everyone. The spread of open data and coding for all also makes it
possible for non-specialists to imagine new applications. An infinite world of urban
services is now at our fingertips.

– Urban life and the digital
                       economy
                       Urban life has been the catalyst of new paradigms in
                       recent years: anticipating and understanding
                       interactions between the systems that make up our
                       cities with a view to cross-referencing data and
                       exploiting this information when developing new
                       applications to facilitate urbanites’ lives. The
                       importance of data resides in its ability to move
                       beyond physical objects and systems, instead

                        artificial intelligence, self-driving cars are now a

                        transportation services, logistics and insurance.
                        The spread of self-driving cars will make
                        aboveground parking lots and spaces obsolete,

Reinventing the city for all citizens

support technological advances.

Combining collective human intelligence with
     technology gives us the means to create a city of
    tomorrow and rise to the challenges that we face
    in 2020 and beyond. The year 2020 is an essential
  milestone that marks a turning point in the industrial
 and energy transition that is transforming the city and
surrounding area. Paris has all the resources it needs to
    support this transition. Therefore, our wish is that
  everyone – residents, families, students, employees,
      entrepreneurs, innovators, researchers, artisans,
          business owners and corporate groups –
 participates in a shared project with a collective vision
           into which we can pour all our energy.
 Our vision of Smart and Sustainable Paris is based on
  three major pillars: the open city, the connected city
and the sustainable city. Each one of these brings value
   and resources to the comprehensive approach that
        will help develop the new trajectory of this
   21st-century metropolis. Data use and governance
       will also influence these three dimensions for
                     the city of tomorrow.

                           25
One city, three pillars,
one goal
A new urban world has emerged at the crossroads of societal needs, urbanism
and ambient intelligence, with technological revolutions already in full swing.
A smart and sustainable Paris embodies social, ecological, cultural, economic
and technological convergences with the citizen at its center. It works and
is interconnected with projects in other cities in France, Europe and the world.

Paris’s intelligence comes first and foremost from Parisians’
intelligence, and it is the city’s method of open innovation
that sets it apart from other global metropolises. This
principle shapes the strategy and actions Paris adopted for
2020 and beyond that encourage citizen participation, open
data and project co-creation. Open innovation is based on
the belief that the solutions of tomorrow will emerge through
collective intelligence and the collaboration between public
stakeholders, businesses, researchers and citizens. It places

Digital technologies have become a source of inspiration for
many uses within a reality that will be changed by these
technologies. In the connected city, networks,
hyper-connectivity and the Internet of Things form a network
through which information becomes instantly accessible and
citizen initiatives are able to emerge, which alter their
relationships with the city and its governance.

These interdependent objectives are reflected in a number of major actions and
projects. A few key examples are described below and will be further developed
by 2020 and beyond.
                                                                27
The Open City
An approach that places people at the center of our process. It is founded on
collaborative methods and relies on the collective intelligence of its residents,
users, municipal officials and socioeconomic stakeholders. It ensures
information sharing and implements constant interaction in order to maintain
a collaborative process:

——Stimulating citizen participation
                               and collaborative projects
                               Involving Parisians in designing and implementing public policies in urban projects is a
                               key priority. Smart and Sustainable Paris considers systematic and thorough cooperation
                               with residents on all projects to be one of its core values. It achieves this through
                               measures that encourage strong citizen participation and collaboration. In its approach
                               as an open, participative, vibrant and creative city, Paris strives to promote citizen
                               initiatives and the expression of city life in all its forms. The co-creation of urban projects
                               also depends on the development of dynamic ecosystems. By ensuring their long-term

                               success, we will be able to see the transformative potential of everyone’s contributions
                               so that the city and all urban spaces become an open-air platform for transformation.

                            Paris welcomes students, academics and scientists from around the world. It is simply
                            part of its DNA. Paris’s intelligence is also forged by looking beyond its borders to
                            attract the best and brightest, which is essential in order to continue to enhance
                            creativity, ingenuity and the ability of each of us to continually be better.
