What do we understand by Smart Cities? • Smart cities should be regarded as systems of people interacting with and using flows of energy, materials, services and financing to catalyse sustainable economic development, resilience, and high quality of life; these flows and interactions become smart through making strategic use of information and communication infrastructure and services in a process of transparent urban planning and management that is responsive to the social and economic needs of society.

EU Urban Agenda Why is the urban dimension so important? • 70% EU citizens live in cities • 85% EU GDP generated in cities • 70% EU legislation implemented in cities • 55% EU funds spent in cities • 7/10 Juncker priorities have urban dimension
EU Urban Agenda The EU Urban Agenda should help cities to improve the implementation of EU and national policies on the ground, by strengthening cooperation between Commission services and by planning and implementing concrete actions at EU, national, regional and city level.

13Open Urban Platform – Berlin May 2015
The Urban Platform Initiative within the
overall EIP Context
Urban Platform
• Core building block by which cities: (i) better manage the current
explosion in volume of city data, and (ii) more easily share data
between city services, to improve outcomes for the society
1. 2. Bring together EU Industry to
Demand- Supply- adopt common open solutions
Side Side
Define common requirements
and speed adoption
3.
Standards Formalise the capture of the core
content as international standards
By 2018, create a strong EU city market for Urban Platforms
By 2025, ensure that 300 mil. residents of EU cities are supported by Urban Platform(s) to manage their
business with a city and that the city in turn drives efficiencies, insight and local innovation through the
platform(s)
15Demand side
A practical example
Key Performance Indicators ( KPIs) - The goal of CITYkeys is to provide a validated, holistic performance measurement framework for monitoring and comparing the implementation of Smart City solutions, with the objective of speeding up the transition to low carbon, resource-efficient cities. - Selection of indicators made by European cities , to fit the needs of European cities and being tested by European Cities with actual datasets.

27Things to know about combining EFSI with ESIF
• Respective eligibility criteria must be adhered to and there must be no
double financing of the same expenditure items
• Separate records have to be maintained between the support from an ESIF
programme and from EFSI
• State aid rules will apply to the ESIF contribution but State aid
considerations do not apply to the EFSI backed EIB intervention
• EFSI support to a project cannot count as national co-financing for ESIF
• Combining EFSI with ESIF is possible:
• at project level
• for individual financial instruments
• through investment platforms
