European cities face significant forces for change such as increasing demand for mobility, seamlessness of service delivery, and the democratization of public services. In response, cities are becoming increasingly smart; they are adopting innovative technology solutions and redesigning business and service delivery models to take a more user-centric approach, while allowing users to have greater input into how their city works.

With European smart city initiatives going beyond early stage and isolated pilots, IDC expects spending to accelerate over the 2017–2021 forecast period, growing to $31 billion in 2021.
