On the occasion of the presentation of the Architectural Guide Book Helsinki (DOM Publishers 2012)

Date: Monday, 1 October 2012
Introduction
The City of Helsinki is engaged in a number of Smart City projects that explore the use of open data and digital technologies in urban development. One such project, the 2011 IBM Smarter Cities Challenge, responded to the occasion of Helsinki as Word Capital of Design by expanding the engagement of design in this Smart City approach. Taking this question further, this public debate will offer perspectives on the scope and implications for architecture and urban design of the growing trend towards Smart Cities.
