Diantara banyak kota di dunia, ada beberapa yang masuk dalam daftar Kota Terpintar, yang kebanyakan berada di Eropa. Bahkan, dari daftar 10 besar kota pintar teratas, tujuh diantaranya berada di benua tersebut.

Indeks tahun ini dibuat oleh IMD World Competitiveness Center's Smart City Observatory bekerja sama dengan World Smart Sustainable Cities Organization (WeGO) yang berbasis di Seoul, Korea Selatan.

Menurut IMD, kota pintar didefinisikan sebagai “sebuah lingkungan perkotaan yang menerapkan teknologi untuk meningkatkan manfaat dan mengurangi kekurangan urbanisasi bagi warganya.”

Kota-kota yang berkinerja baik dalam daftar ini juga telah mengembangkan inisiatif yang memenuhi kualitas hidup warganya secara keseluruhan.

“Inisiatif-inisiatif tersebut berfokus pada pengembangan ruang hijau dan memperluas kesempatan untuk acara-acara budaya dan ikatan sosial, misalnya,” menurut laporan tersebut.

Selain itu, sebagian besar kota-kota terkemuka tersebut juga telah memiliki upaya yang dikombinasikan dengan strategi inovatif untuk menarik dan mempertahankan talenta, mendorong investasi dengan cara yang selektif, serta mengatasi masalah-masalah yang telah lama ada terkait ketidaksetaraan dan inklusi geografis.

Berikut adalah 10 kota pintar teratas, menurut Indeks Kota Cerdas 2024.
