Abstract

POCITYF - a H2020 smart-city project - supports cities with historical and cultural heritage districts, by developing innovative solutions and technologies to be applicable in cities with an architecture characterized by historic and/or cultural protected buildings and districts. To harmonise the innovative solutions with cultural heritage, the inclusion of relevant stakeholders’ opinions in decision-making and implementation of the project is crucial, as stakeholders are not only affected by the solutions, but also influence their successful implementation. To identify their needs and interests in relation with the list of innovations proposed, three (3) types of surveys were carried out among different stakeholder groups: Impact & Readiness of the solutions; Power & Interest of the local Stakeholders; Citizens’ Knowledge & Acceptance of the solutions. These surveys facilitate the selection, deployment and replication of the smart city solutions as well as strategies for social engagement, ensuring they are appropriate for the cultural heritage of cities and its citizens’ requirements.
