The aim of the pilot projects is to demonstrate how the wider deployment of Internet-based technologies and services can be enhanced through co-production and, in turn, provide new and more innovative approaches to bring together both the e-government and e-inclusion agendas with the Future Internet agenda to tackle these inter-connected policy agendas in a more holistic way. The added value for the users is that they have a real incentive to become more involved as co-producers, as well as users, of the content and services available in the emerging smart cities through having access to new skills, employment possibilities and quality of life. It is this which can then make these approaches more sustainable, by embedding the pro-active involvement of citizens in all aspects of designing and delivering services and thus providing both citizens and the public authorities responsible for providing these services with a new rationale to make the PPPP Public-Private-People Partnership approach viable and desirable. The relationship between the concept of co-production and the thematic focus of the project is illustrated below.
Promoting reciprocity
Developing new social capital New collaborative approaches to holistic planning including a citizens data aggregator resource management
People engaged in environmental improvements on a equal basis with professionals Citizens being resourced to improved the quality of life Identifying and activating citizens capacity
People maps as a tool in improving mobility planning and delivery Incentivising greener and more effective ways of improving mobility Creating innovative new mobility possibilities

Each pilot project will focus on combining existing prototypes, using available Internet-based technologies, e.g. mobile and location based services, next generation access (NGA) service networks and applications based on the emerging Internet of Things, including RFID, sensors and networks, and describing the adaptation work required to develop these into the four targeted service areas outlined above. This will include the development of business plans not only for the proposed thematic services specifically but also more generally for the new business models which will be proposed to take forward all such services as the basis of replicating, scaling up and sustaining their development on a more holistic basis.

These will be used to evaluate project progress and to feedback into future iterations of the Smart City Vision, not only for the project but also for the wider collaborative networks being developed through the Smart Cities Portfolio Working Group, Eurocities and ENoLL and the Future Internet for Smart Cities Roadmap being developed through the FIREBALL Coordination Action. In conclusion, therefore, the SMARTiP project offers the following vision as the starting point for Smart Citizens in Smart Cities: Smart Cities will have smart citizens at their heart, enabling them to have the capacity and confidence to use state-of-the-art future internet technologies to transform the way they live and work and their quality of life. Future internet-enabled smart citizens will collaborate in new and dynamic ways, co-owning new ways of planning and delivering services and co-producing services both for themselves and for those that they live with, care for and work with. Smart citizens in smart cities will be part of new cross-border collaborations across Europe and globally, using future-internet technologies to create new economic and social opportunities for working and for living. Smart cities will enable smart citizens to make their environments greener, cleaner and healthier as well as more open and inclusive. Smart citizens in smart cities will ensure that smart cities are more democratic, resilient and attractive, using future internet-enabled services to generate and celebrate creativity, innovation and diversity.
