The most developed cities in Romania have less than 10 smart solution implemented, according to an analysis of the Romanian Association for Smart City and Mobility (ARSCM). While Alba Iulia leads with 96 apps implemented three of the most developed cities, Bucharest, Constanta and Brasov, have less than 10. For the Capital city this could change with the support of the Netcity network that is rapidly developing, says Business-Review.eu.
Paradoxically, economic development does not guarantee investment in Smart City solutions that can significantly improve the lives of large metropolitan residents. The ARSCM has identified large differences between communities with similar development. Alba Iulia leads detached in the rankings of implemented smart projects with 96 applications, while three of the top five developed cities – Bucharest, Constanta and Brasov, have less than 10 projects implemented, and Craiova has no such solution, ARSCM shows. Timisoara and Cluj-Napoca are the only cities except Alba Iulia, which have more than 10 Smart City projects in progress – Timisoara – 19 projects, and Cluj-Napoca – 11.
