Abstract :
This master's thesis, entitled "Smart Cities:
Boosting Economic Growth through Innovation and
Efficiency," embarks on an exploration of the
transformative potential of smart urbanization in the
face of global challenges. Envisioning cities as dynamic
ecosystems fueled by technology, sustainability, and
effective governance, the research delves into historical
roots and theoretical frameworks across urban planning,
technology, economics, and governance. The thesis
invites readers on a journey through smart
infrastructure, digital connectivity, and data-driven
governance, illustrating how smart cities function as
both innovation hubs and catalysts for economic
dynamism. The conclusion draws insights from a
comprehensive exploration spanning six countries from
2000 to 2021, interpreting data as a narrative that
unveils the complexity of economic relationships.
Emphasizing the multifaceted nature of these
connections, the conclusion provides guidance to
policymakers and researchers, urging a focus on
theoretical implications, diagnostic test results, and a
holistic perspective on the transformative potential of
technological infrastructure, particularly smart cities, in
fostering economic development.
