Purpose and goal
Smart City Transformation Lab builds on results and experiences from Smart City Lab with a particular focus on organizational development and transformation linked to (IoT) data management. The main goal is to achieve an actual transition of “joint (IoT) data management capabilities” in participating municipalities, to leverage the potential of IoT as a tool for sustainable and smart societies. This requires an extensive organizational transformation, across the municipality´s operations.
Expected effects and result
By developing and packaging the IoT journey, the project contributes a concept, method and tools for moving towards joint municipal (IoT) data management. The municipalities and project partners hereby increase their ability to transform and utilize data. The project continues the SCL network, hereby ensuring knowledge sharing and joint learning. The long-term effect is that the project partners increase their ability to use data to address local and global challenges.
