The mega trend of SMART communities is set to drive urban
development for the next decade. SMART growth will drive
demand for SMART growth economic development, SMART
workforce development & training, SMART education,
SMART community development, SMART concepts, and new
business models. North America will continue to dominate the
global market for SMART city technologies.
Investment rate in North America will increase from $118.5
billion in 2016 to $244.5 billion in 2021. Technology ubiquity,
advanced investment, and organizational models in U.S.
cities will drive investment. There are currently over 100
hundred SMART community projects in the U.S., and more

years. In addition, U.S. affiliates may have an opportunity to
