Question: Challanges of Smart City?

Answer: The smart city concept is closely related to digital technology. Several aspects of digital technology
use in smart cities raise concerns. One is the lack of adaptation of city structures to the potential of new
technologies. Another is the lack of general restructuring of the city before the implementation of smart
city solutions. Applying IoT and other advanced digital technology solutions to old, not updated, urban
structures reduces the efficiency of smart city implementations. Non-Internet technologies coexist with
Internet technologies in smart cities. Many people do not yet have access to digital technologies.
