The secondary market is vital for scaling the innovation ecosystem as it provides liquidity to early investors, allowing them to sell shares before an IPO or acquisition. Despite its importance, it is relatively small. How can we increase awareness and trust in secondary market opportunities? What steps are needed? By addressing these challenges, could we unlock greater potential for scaling innovation globally?

Decades of government and philanthropic policies have facilitated economically stagnant zones where people measure their success by how far they get away. This talent-extraction paradigm makes them far more vulnerable to real estate speculation and displacement, and removes individuals with spending power, day to day examples of success, and the investment and financial acumen needed to build local economies.

It has been established that “smartness” is a form of branding to market cities as modern, innovative, and efficient. Submerged under these overarching values are several others that depend on who is wielding the terminology, ranging from sustainability to entrepreneurship. Smartness rarely centers low-tech common-sense solutions or meeting the demands of those most vulnerable in society. This talk unearths what we mean by smartness and considers the inherent challenges of making smart city technology “ethical.” Finally, it addresses initial steps to make “doing ethics” easier.

By drawing on examples from a number of cities across the continent, this presentation will explore the extent to which place and space matter, in the age of platforms, social media and digital tools, and essentially offers an alternative conception of smart cities. Rather than seeing the smart city as an ideal to be achieved and yet to be implemented, the argument here is that technology infused livelihoods and everyday innovations are what define the digital age. The smart city exists, in the urban everyday, and is continuously being reinvented.

In 2019, 2020, and 2021, 73 pilot projects were selected for funding from the German Smart Cities program, encompassing small towns to large cities. A key requirement for receiving up to 15 million euros was the implementation of digital solutions to promote sustainable urban development. These digital solutions had to be open source, scalable, and transferable, ensuring that outcomes would enhance dissemination and scaling throughout Germany and Europe. As most selected projects are still in the implementation phase, this session presents the first prototypical solutions and achievements of the national program. Additionally, within the “Smarte.Land.Regionen” initiative, an online marketplace has been established to offer solutions for digital public services.

Supply chains have proven vulnerable, as evidenced by events such as the extreme drought in the Panama Canal early this year, the COVID-19 pandemic, the crisis in the Red Sea, and more. With extreme weather patterns and rising sea levels increasingly linked to climate change, alongside political crises and geopolitical conflicts, there is a growing concern over how these issues will impact international maritime transit. In light of these challenges, what tools can we leverage to mitigate these effects? What best practices should be embraced? Are there disruptive solutions on the horizon to minimize disturbances?

This keynote addresses the need to move beyond traditional top-down and bottom-up approaches in smart city development, advocating for a hybrid model that integrates both. By balancing technological innovations with community-driven initiatives, hybrid smartness creates more equitable and sustainable urban environments. Drawing from the evolution of smart city discourse, this talk highlights how hybrid smartness can solve urban challenges more effectively by intertwining top-down infrastructure with bottom-up citizen engagement. The keynote will explore how this socio-technical integration can reshape cities to be inclusive and responsive to both human and environmental needs.

Given the growing impact of climate change on cities and citizens, there is a critical need to accelerate the implementation of climate action plans, particularly in small and medium-sized cities that have fewer resources. This session will showcase examples of how private sector collaboration with cities can support the implementation of these plans. The examples include smart parking and kerb management pilot project in India, preparation of an application form for circular economy and waste management project in Argentina, collaboration on plastic extraction from canal tributaries in Thailand and climate mitigating measures with floating infrastructure in Belize. The session will also offer insights into how cities can align their local needs with business expertise and showcase GCoM’s initiative that supports cities in fast-tracking projects at the pre-feasibility stage of development.

Melati will share a fresh perspective from the young changemakers who are already reshaping communities through their actions. They envision cities that aim at cleaner air, creating less plastic waste, greener streets and cities that embrace the circular economy. The change needed to make such cities possible starts with education, and Melati will share the inspiring story of how, at the age of 12, she started Bye Bye Plastic Bags at her home island, Bali. Years later, she started the social enterprise Mountain Mamas, creating bags from donated and pre-loved materials. More recently, she has kicked of an e-learning platform with educational program from youth for youth called Youthtopia. Melati is the living proof that true change begins when one turns their passion into their purpose, and ideas into action. As the cities of tomorrow demand the courage to act today, youth should be a crucial part of leading the way.

In this talk, Ruha Benjamin takes us into the liberating power of the imagination. Deadly systems all emerged from the human imagination, and have real-world, often deadly impacts. To fight harmful systems and create a world in which everyone can thrive, we will have to imagine things differently. Drawing on work that critically examines “smart” technologies that perpetuate inequities and engaging with grassroots approaches to community building, she offers a pragmatic and poetic approach to worldbuilding that invites each of us to consider the role we play in maintaining or transforming the oppressive status quo.

The incorporation of new technologies, particularly AI, in defining public policy implementation and decision-making processes represents a paradigm shift that brings evident advantages. However, at the same time, privacy risks substantially increase. For this reason, the design of public policies in environments like smart cities cannot be done independently of data protection regulations. It must be considered from the beginning.

Livable cities entail full participation in all areas of life for people with disabilities. In spite of the many efforts that have been made in this regard, ableism is still pervasive in areas such as higher education and the arts, with students and academics facing attitudinal barriers, invisible work and a lack of accessibility literacy. A number of solutions for these mostly easy to overcome barriers are put forward.

AI's huge energy and water requirements have caused some of the biggest technology companies in the world to miss their climate targets, a problem that will likely only worsen in the near to medium term. Yet AI is also helping to improve productivity, identify efficiencies, and support innovation, all of which we need to achieve our net zero targets.
