Cities and regions are entering a new area of transformation: a digital transformation which embraces social, economic, urban, mobility, educational, technological and cultural changes.
A blueprint, conceived as a smart guidebook for local stakeholders will be presented, and two cities or regions, subjects of the comparative analysis of the blueprint, will present their challenges and achievements.
The European Commission will also present support actions related to this topic.
