Definition:

Smart Cities term refers to usage of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in order to improve the quality of life for its citizens, enhance sustainability, and optimize urban services. In a smart city, various devices and sensors are installed throughout the urban landscape to create the intelligent transportation systems, smart grids and public safety systems.

Additional information:

The Internet of Things market compromise of revenue and revenue growth as the key performance indicators. The market consists of pure IoT revenues generated through the sale of hardware (such as sensors, chips, and other hardware), platforms (IoT platforms, security software and other software), connectivity (cellular, LoRa, SigFox and other connectivity) and services (integration &maintenance of equipment & systems). As an example, the pure IoT revenue for a smart security camera is only the component that makes the camera "smart" and connected, not the full product price. Reported market revenues include spending by consumers (B2C), enterprises (B2B) as well as governments (B2G). Revenues are allocated to the country where the money is spent.

Some of the key players include Alphabet, Huawei and Cisco.

As the world population continues to grow, cities are especially becoming more crowded and in need of more efficient infrastructure and service offerings. Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are improving efficiency, sustainability and livability.

Environmental concerns have been gaining traction in recent years and the citizens are demanding sustainable solutions. Smart energy systems and waste management solutions are adopting IoT technologies and benefiting from the data collected via the connected devices. Smart grids are especially important in increasing reliability and security in the times of outages, security threats and other unexpected occurrences. IoT sensors are used in smart waste management to monitor the garbage cans and optimize waste collection schedules and reduce litter.

The Smart Cities market is expected to continue seeing a fast growth, as governments are seeing the potential they can bring for both sustainable and economic growth. China has made “Smart Cities Development Plan” part of their Made in China 2025, while Germany invested over EUR 1 billion for development and investment of urban technologies.

Data coverage

The data encompasses B2B, B2C and B2G revenues. The revenue only refers to the spending share of the Internet of Things components.

In the realm of technology, few concepts have captured imaginations quite like the Internet of Things (IoT). Coined in 1999 by British technologist Kevin Ashton, IoT envisioned a future where a vast network of interconnected objects would collect and analyze data, enabling them to perform tasks autonomously. While the idea seemed more like science fiction at the time, today, IoT is no longer a hypothetical concept but a rapidly unfolding reality. Thanks to the development of communication technologies such as 5G and data analytics using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, IoT has applications varying from smartwatches to city infrastructure (smart cities).
