Abstract
Organising cities around innovative ways of using digital technologies has become one of the most challenging aspects of today’s globalised world, where creating value for citizens and the community is among the priorities of urban governance. This article departs from the study of the European ‘smart cities’ project, to observe how middlesized cities could develop, empowered by the spread of networked information and communication technologies. In particular, smart healthcare is recognized as one of the main dimensions that contribute to make a city smart. The article explores the use of smart card, by considering a case study and its implications will be discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
