Perhaps the most important lesson of recent years of crisis is the inconsistency of short-term choices with limited geographic horizons, and therefore the need to develop a vision capable of addressing a complex and long-term scenario, restoring the central role of new generations—not only during their education phase but as essential elements for the growth of civil society and entrepreneurship.
The desire to propose an ambitious vision for the city, able to stimulate the great potential of a unique territory, was the origin of “Bergamo 2.035”: an interdisciplinary project led by the University of Bergamo, in collaboration with Harvard University. The work aims to develop a detailed plan based on the analysis of the most impactful trends that will soon affect cities, citizens, and their respective territories, and to promote the concrete development of the “Bergamo case.”
This book intends to share the ambition of presenting Bergamo as an international case study to develop strategies, models, and solutions with the goal of creating a “prototype of an intelligent reality” that could serve as a reference for other urban contexts.
“Bergamo 2.035” aims to expand the current concept of smart cities, defining a context where technologies and innovative solutions evolve in parallel with new models of social inclusivity, where citizens—smarter citizens—become active agents of change for the improvement of the urban environment.
