Beskrivning
This book presents a comprehensive framework for Smart Regions—an innovative concept that transcends traditional Smart City and Smart Village approaches by integrating them within a cohesive regional development strategy. Moving beyond fragmented urban-suburban-rural divisions, the chapters in the book argue that regions must be managed holistically to achieve competitive advantage in the 21st century. They propose that central to this vision is the concept of Smart Relations: diverse economic, social, political, cultural, and ecological channels connecting urban innovation centres with surrounding communities. These dynamic linkages create synergies that amplify sustainable development across entire regions. Drawing on global examples, the book provides regional managers with practical insights into implementing intelligent development solutions. It addresses critical questions: What defines a smart region? Which channels most effectively transmit innovation throughout regional networks? How can regional intelligence be measured and enhanced?By demonstrating how coordinated smart strategies can leverage existing regional advantages while fostering new connections, this work offers an essential roadmap for policymakers, planners, and researchers committed to building resilient, competitive, and sustainable regional economies in an increasingly interconnected world.
