SMART CITY EXPO 2025

A graphic with text reading "THE TIME FOR CITIES".

Twenty-five years into this millennium, our cities are becoming living, breathing testaments to human ingenuity and hope. Innovation is the lifeblood of our neighborhoods, with technology woven seamlessly into the fabric of urban living. The first quarter of this century –the Century of Cities– has shown us what’s possible when vision meets action.

Yet our greatest chapters remain unwritten. Since 2011, Smart City Expo World Congress has been a catalyst for this historic transformation. As we help cities rise to meet global challenges, they’re stepping into their role as influential actors on the world stage. Here, international pioneers and passionate innovators come together to craft our urban legacy.

We’re not just discussing the future – we’re creating it.
