SMIT
INTERNAL ORGANISATION OF
A SMART CITY
08.03.2018 14h-17h
During this master class, we took a look at the organisation of smart cities. How can they be managed and coordinated? What are tools that can help us? What are the implications of smart city technology and networks for governance? The presentations revealed opportunities for cities to take up a leading role with a smart city ecosystem, but also that the need to grasp these opportunities becomes ever more urgent.

LOCAL ECONOMY
07.06.2018 9h - 18h
Full day
XL master class
Factors such as mobility issues and online consumption affect the vitality of our city centers and the local economy. In this master class we sought to explore these factors and identify opportunities for supporting the local economy from a smart cities perspective: (1) through technological applications & data analytics, (2) smart governance & collaboration, and (3) by involving citizens. At the end of the master class, participants were involved to discuss possible recommendations for local politics who seek to grasp these opportunities. These recommendations are summarized here (in Dutch, translation to follow). We concluded the event with a closing talk by Gert Bergen (Adjunct-kabinetschef Philippe Muyters).

SMART CITY DATA AND PRIVACY
06.09.2018
Cities and municipalities have access about a variety of data concerning their buildings, budgets, citizens, etc. Moreover, new possibilities to gather data emerge within a smart city context. How can cities and municipalities transparently gather, process, visualize and report these data in line with relevant privacy principles and regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation.
During the master class, Rob Heyman and Nils Walravens discussed what the possibilities are for those who want to set up city campaigns or technological solutions that involve data collection and how they can consider privacy from the very beginning. Bart Rosseau (Head of Data & Information, Ghent) and Bart Van den Brande (Sirius Legal) provided us with, respectively, a practical and legal perspective on privacy in a smart city context.

ENVISIONING AND MONITORING SMART CITIES
06.12.2018
Like Rome, smart cities are not built overnight. The transition towards a smart city requires a combination of innovative thinking, sensible use of technology, various smart city actors shaping meaningful application with and for the city and its citizens, embedded in a long term strategic policy.
In our last master class of 2018, we focused on the transition towards Smart Cities.
During the first part of this master class (on smart city strategies and implementation), newly elected mayor of Leuven, Mohamed Ridouani, presented his vision for Leuven as a smart city. Following this keynote, Smart city representatives Filis Zumbultas (Brussels) and Gino Dehullu (Roeselare) shared their strategy, actions and projects for their city to become smart(er) in the coming years. Here, you can also consult the presentation of Zoé Lejeune (AREBS, Seraing) who could not make it.
​
The second part of our master class (on monitoring smart cities as they progress) was kicked off by Bernard Gindroz (Chairman TC ISO standard for Sustainable Cities and Communities). Then, researchers Jan Waeben (imec-SMIT), Jonas Van Bockhaven (Smart City Institute, HEC Liège) and Nikolaos Kontinakis (Eurocities) presented different approaches to monitoring smart cities.
