“…Singapore, London, Barcelona, New York, London, Paris, Seoul, Tokyo, Amsterdam, Chicago, and Vienna) at above both types of studies, there is some confusion about what is understood by the "smart city" concept. Accordingly, "smart city" can be defined as city where innovation in technology, telecommunication, networking, computation, sustainability and ecological design come together and create a responsible, intuitive, social, high quality, clean and advanced experience for its citizens and visitors while establishing a wise management of natural resources (Abdoullaev, 2011;Colldahl, Sonya, & Kelemen, 2013;Couzineau-Zegwaard, Barabel, & Meier, 2013;Merli & Bonollo, 2014;Nijman, 2011;Vaquero & Saiz-Alvarez, 2016). The concept of a smart city often highlights the advantages of generating greater economic, energy, governance and mobility efficiency.…”

Cities have become the engines of economic development more than ever before. Nowadays, numerous cities have been using technological and innovative service delivery tools called "smart city technologies and applications" to affect living conditions of their residents and visitors positively. These technologies and applications can be seen at government and private buildings, city facilities and management, informational and communicational technology infrastructure and personal services. They have a net-positive impact on the environment and natural resources by reducing harmful emissions, excessive and unnecessary use of energy, water, gas, public and private transport vehicles etc. On the city branding side, efficient, sustainable and powerful city economy, security, tidiness, regularity in urban facilities, enhanced civic imagery and a decent quality of life have made a city attractive to its target audiences. In this paper, smart city technologies and applications in the world's leading smart cities were examined. Thereafter, common and/or city-specific applications were listed. Finally, in the light of these findings, some suggestions were put forward for tourism cities which aim to realize sustainable economic development by means of tourism and be an attractive city/destination for their existing and prospective visitors.

In the evolving landscape of electromobility, the logistics domain is undergoing significant transformations, reflecting broader changes in both the transport and energy sectors. This study aims to present an exploration of the scientific literature indexed in Scopus dedicated to electromobility logistics and the business ecosystem. The methods used in this article include a classical literature review and a systematic literature review, combined with bibliometric analysis in VOSviewer software (version 1.6.19). These methods allowed for the analysis of keywords and research motifs related directly to the development of electromobility from a business ecosystem perspective. Results of this study indicate that while technological innovations play a significant role, the success of electromobility is also highly dependent on its efficient and collaborative business ecosystem of entities involved in transportation and energy sectors. This ecosystem, defined by mutual value creation and strategic collaboration along with infrastructure and logistics, has the potential to drive economic growth and create new green jobs in the energy and transport sectors. In conclusion, the study underscores the importance of a sustainable and balanced approach, emphasizing both technological advancements and the significance of a robust business ecosystem for the future of the electromobility business ecosystem.

“…It is the "Smart City" technology and applications which makes a destination "smart". The concept of "smart city" is the responsible, intuitive, social, high-quality, clean; formed by bringing together the internet, communication systems and networks, technological innovations, data management and processing systems and environmental management systems; defines a city capable of providing advanced experiences for their countrymen, visitors and tourists by providing wise management of natural resources (Nijman, 2011;Colldahl, Sonya, & Kelemen, 2013;Vaquero & Saiz-Alvarez, 2016;Merli & Bonollo, 2014;Couzineau-Zegwaard, Barabel, & Meier, 2013). Today, the concept of a smart city is often characterized by higher economic benefits, better management, more efficient energy usage, natural resources, and space utilization.…”

Tourism is a sector that fundamentally produces "experience". Tourism is affected by advancement in the market and its environment. In recent years, innovation and new entrepreneurship in tourism are shifting to technology-intensive ones. The main aim of this study is to show the impact of technology on the areas of innovation and entrepreneurship in tourism destinations through examples. The study has shown that smart technologies have affected various tourism subcomponents for a long time. The destination has turned into "smart destination", as a result of using technology and applications in city infrastructure. Smart destination applications are expected to extend in usage due to their increasing effect on productivity and experience quality. Investigating case studies and successful world examples have been the main method followed in the current research for examining challenges in technological transformation in tourism destinations. The results of the study are expected to support an increase in tourism productivity and experience quality by also paying sufficient attention to facilitating the daily life of local people.
