What is a smart city?
A smart city is a framework, predominantly composed of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), to develop, deploy, and promote sustainable development practices to address growing urbanization challenges. 
Why do we need smart cities?

Urbanization is a non-ending phenomenon. 
Today, 54% of people worldwide live in cities, a proportion that’s expected to reach 66% by 2050
With the overall population growth, urbanization will add another 2.5 billion people to cities over the next three decades.
Environmental, social, and economic sustainability is a must to keep pace with this rapid expansion taxing our cities’ resources.
One hundred ninety-three countries agreed upon the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda in September 2015 at the United Nations.
