As reflected in the document \u201cSmart Cities \u2013 Documento de Visi\u00f3n a 2030\u201d, from the Smart Cities Interplatform Group (GICI), Smart City is one that guarantees its sustainability from energetic, environmental, economic and social standpoints through the incorporation of technologies, processes and innovative services, improving life standards and favour\u00a0business and work activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

To MATERPLAT, Smart Cities, in their purpose of being sustainable, efficient (or super-efficient) and ensure high life standards to their citizens, \u201cintelligent materials\u201d and materials with \u201csuper-properties\u201d of high added value are going to play a prominent role as a complement to other technologies or by providing a benefit derived from its direct use in the improvement of infrastructures and services. Predictably, the mayor impact of these new materials on smart cities will be achieved in fields related to health, security, comfort and resources and infrastructures optimization.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Smart Cities Interplatform Group (GICI) was born at the end of 2013 upon the initiative of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness \u00a0in order to give a coordinated response from the different techonological platforms to the specific challenges posed by\u00a0a\u00a0\u2018Smart City\u2019.<\/p>\n

Currently, GICI is composed of 19 platforms and counts on the support of the public administrations (MEIC and CDTI), the Normalization and Certification Spanish Association (AENOR) and the Energy Saving and Diversification Institute (IDAE):\"plataformas-gici\"<\/p>\n

Since it is considered that a Smart City<\/strong> is one that\u00a0ensures its energetic, environmental and social sustainibility through the incorporation of innovative technologies, products and services in order to improve\u00a0life standards and favour\u00a0business and work activities, this platform looks forward to give a response to the challenges posed by cities<\/strong> from the perspective of technological development:<\/p>\n
