Core Views/Main Achievements
First Topic: Global Smart City Development
In the global urbanization process, Europe and the United States have first-mover advantages, so they are at the forefront of urbanization in the world. In Asia, especially China, under the strong promotion of the government's systematic urbanization strategy for many years, it has caught up quickly and become the country with the highest urbanization rate in the world, with broad room for subsequent growth.
The gap between China and the United States in urbanization ratio is constantly
narrowing, and there is broad room for subsequent development brought by urbanization.
Driven by the national new urbanization strategy, China's urbanization has grown at an
annual compound growth rate of more than 1% in the past 10 years, and the urbanization
process has accelerated.
The urbanization rate growth rate in various countries and regions in Asia is higher
than that in the Americas, and there is great growth potential.
Also driven by urbanization, the infrastructure investment gap in Asia reaches more than
2 trillion US dollars each year.
Second Topic: Future Super Smart Cities
The report believes that traditional "smart cities" will develop in the direction of "super smart cities" in the future. Super smart cities are enhanced versions of traditional smart cities, with six key elements covering six major areas, making cities more integrated and integrated, better integrated and collaborative, and maximizing value.
The third major topic: China Super Smart City Index
The report believes that super smart cities can be evaluated from four aspects: first, whether there is a long-term strategic plan; second, whether there is sufficient technical infrastructure support; third, whether the smart fields covered are wide and deep enough; fourth, whether the city has an endless and lasting innovation capability. Under the four dimensions, we conduct a systematic analysis of the current 25 key cities in order to identify the current status of smart city development and how far these cities are from the ideal super smart city.
The purpose of constructing the super smart city evaluation index system is to
understand the current smart city construction content and future development plans from
an overall perspective, and to guide cities to shift their focus on smart cities from
hardware facilities construction to the level of application through Deloitte's global
perspective;
The report believes that the construction of smart cities does not necessarily have to
be all-round. Local governments need to combine their actual needs during the
construction process, develop local characteristics, and make smart city construction
projects play their role in economic and social activities to create a higher quality
and happy society;
Most cities have a fast pace of smart city infrastructure construction, but there is
still much room for improvement in in-depth application;
It is worth noting that the development of domestic smart city technology infrastructure
is relatively mature, with a higher score than the average, but it lags behind in
innovation and strategic planning.
The fourth major issue: Reflecting on past experience and building a super smart city
Faced with many challenges, today's city managers must break through the constraints of
traditional smart cities and gradually transform and upgrade to "super smart cities".
The report finally reflected on the construction of smart cities from seven aspects:
Super smart cities cannot lack effective overall strategic planning from top to bottom;
Super smart cities are not large-scale replicas;
Super smart cities cannot be limited to certain models;
Super smart city platforms cannot cause data isolation;
Super smart cities cannot passively respond to data security;
Super smart cities cannot lack the joint participation and cooperation of the
government, enterprises and the public;
Super smart cities cannot lack continuous innovation.
