| dc.description.abstract | While smart cities offer promising new opportunities for governments, their citizens and industries, finding the investments and knowledge to support such opportunities can be a complex business. One strategy of public bodies to generate investments and knowledge, involves bringing the private sector into the fold. However, bringing these two different elements together can also prove to be challenging in practice. One predominant challenge that has been noticed has to do with achieving a strategic alignment between the key actors of smart city development in public-private partnerships like the municipalities and the industry. Over the past decades, a new approach of governance called ‘collaborative governance’ has emerged. This strategy of governance focuses on bringing multiple stakeholders together in order to engage in consensus-oriented decision making and planning. The underlying dynamics of collaboration play a role in the multiple layers of collaboration in practice that starts at the very beginning but should constantly be considered as the dynamics at the beginning also influence the collaboration at the end. Without proper attention and understanding of the collaboration dynamics, public-private collaboration within smart city development will remain on weak pillars which will result in stumbling blocks and limitations on multiple domains in practice. | en_US |
