Building on the success of the Digital Cities Challenge (DCC), the ICC is the latest of the initiatives of the European Commission to promote technological transformation, build a green Europe and foster intelligent and sustainable growth across European cities. This 2.5 year programme will help 100 cities across the EU with the uptake of advanced technologies by providing world-class support in person, online, and as a community.
WHAT IS THE ICC?
The ICC seeks to help 100 small and medium-sized EU cities to support green, climate-neutral, sustainable growth; tackle the biggest urban challenges; and improve the quality of life. Building on the success of the Digital Cities Challenge, which helped 41 EU cities to create a strategic vision and roadmaps for digital transformation, the ICC focuses on implementation of strategies, a common platform for open data, a marketplace for intelligent city solutions, joint investments, new support mechanisms and a new international dimension.
This programme seeks to unite EU cities in seizing the opportunity for green intelligent sustainable growth, improving the quality of life and fostering new opportunities for citizens. To this end, 100 cities will be selected for the ICC to receive support through various measures including advisory services for cities and local stakeholders, field visits by experts, access to online tools and a marketplace for intelligent city solutions.
