“…In fact, developing countries have been categorised into five major groupings based on their respective socio-political and macroeconomic indicators such as poverty, income inequality, productivity, innovation, GDP, political freedom, overall governance, carbon emission, and external flow. These are important factors to be accounted for when ascertaining the developmental needs for smart city development in developing countries [86]. Some challenges may be more prominent in one context than in another, implying that priorities in addressing these challenges should be based on their respective salience and urgency to the local governments in different cities.…”

Smart cities that make broad use of digital technologies have been touted as possible solutions for the population pressures faced by many cities in developing countries and may help meet the rising demand for services and infrastructure. Nevertheless, the high financial cost involved in infrastructure maintenance, the substantial size of the informal economies, and various governance challenges are curtailing government idealism regarding smart cities. This review examines the state of smart city development in developing countries, which includes understanding the conceptualisations, motivations, and unique drivers behind (and barriers to) smarty city development. A total of 56 studies were identified from a systematic literature review from an initial pool of 3928 social sciences literature identified from two academic databases. Data were analysed using thematic synthesis and thematic analysis. The review found that technologyenabled smart cities in developing countries can only be realised when concurrent socioeconomic, human, legal, and regulatory reforms are instituted. Governments need to step up their efforts to fulfil the basic infrastructure needs of citizens, raise more revenue, construct clear regulatory frameworks to mitigate the technological risks involved, develop human capital, ensure digital inclusivity, and promote environmental sustainability. A supportive ecosystem that encourages citizen participation, nurtures start-ups, and promotes public-private partnerships needs to be created to realise their smart city vision.

“…Furthermore, informational privacy in AVs is crucial to building consumer trust, which is crucial for economic sustainability. This is especially so in the sharing economy, where consumers act as "prosumers" who are "offering mobility services themselves" [54,77]. Only where there is consumer trust can there be sufficient market uptake of AVs, which is crucial if further improvements are to be made to the technology in terms of safety, efficiency, traffic flow, and other benefits to achieve a smarter and more sustainable society [77].…”

Amidst rapid urban development, sustainable transportation solutions are required to meet the increasing demands for mobility whilst mitigating the potentially negative social, economic, and environmental impacts. This study analyses autonomous vehicles (AVs) as a potential transportation solution for smart and sustainable development. We identified privacy and cybersecurity risks of AVs as crucial to the development of smart and sustainable cities and examined the steps taken by governments around the world to address these risks. We highlight the literature that supports why AVs are essential for smart and sustainable development. We then identify the aspects of privacy and cybersecurity in AVs that are important for smart and sustainable development. Lastly, we review the efforts taken by federal governments in the US, the UK, China, Australia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Germany, France, and the EU, and by US state governments to address AV-related privacy and cybersecurity risks in-depth. Overall, the actions taken by governments to address privacy risks are mainly in the form of regulations or voluntary guidelines. To address cybersecurity risks, governments have mostly resorted to regulations that are not specific to AVs and are conducting research and fostering research collaborations with the private sector.

“…Crowdsourcing is also defined as informational engagement of the crowd in order to solve problems, complete tasks, create ideas and production, in which the scattered knowledge of individuals and groups is used by a combination of innovative processes coming out of the crowd to reach effectively the goals set and initiated by the organization [11][12].…”

Abstract. In modern conditions of management it is important for enterprises to carry out effective innovative activity to provide the necessary level of competitiveness. This activity involves the formation of the necessary amount of intellectual capital. Most domestic enterprises do not pay enough attention to this issue. That is why it is very important to determine the directions of its growth. The issue of intellectual capital management, its influence on innovation activity has been considered in the works of L. Antonyuk, S. V. Zakharinko, A. Kendiukhov, G. R. Natroshvili, V. Tsipurindy, L. Fedulova. At the same time, it is important to study the issue of using crowdsourcing by domestic enterprises as a way to increase intellectual capital.The purpose of this work is to investigate the possibility and efficiency of using crowdsourcing as a source of growth of intellectual capital of an enterprise.Research methodology. In order to achieve the goal with the help of system and comparative methods, it is necessary to assess the factors influencing the intellectual capital of industrial enterprises, to determine the possibility of increasing the efficiency of using intellectual capital with the help of crowdsourcing.The results of the study have shown that in today's conditions, the intellectual component of innovation activity becomes an important factor. The components of intellectual capital have been investigated. The indexes of knowledge economy of Ukraine and developed countries have analyzed. It has been determined that one of the directions of increasing the index of knowledge economy is the active stimulation of growth of intellectual capital of enterprises. The essence of crowdsourcing and its components have been defined; the modern examples of its application in the world and in Ukraine have been researched. It has been determined that this tool is used mainly in the social sphere in Ukraine. The importance of its use in raising the intellectual component of innovation activity of domestic enterprises has been substantiated.It has been established that active involvement of students in the activity of the enterprise can be very promising for domestic enterprises. For this purpose, enterprises can provide their production facilities for individual practical tasks and students' experimental-design developments, and students will be able to get real practical skills. As a result of such cooperation, the enterprise can use the development and experience of students in their production activities and see potential employees.The practical significance of the carried out research is to develop recommendations for industrial enterprises to increase attention to crowdsourcing as an important source of intellectual capital growth.Consequently, increasing the competitiveness of enterprises is reached by increasing the intellectual component in innovation activity.
