WHY SMART CITY AFRICA?SMART CITIES are growing in popularity all over the world as more connected technologies emerge. In developed countries, it has become synonymous with high-tech urban innovation where technology-based solutions leverage existing infrastructure to solve the daily challenges of city life.

Since 5 billion people are expected to live in urban settings by 2030, smart cities are projected to drive sus-tainable economic growth, competitiveness, prosperity and a better life for citizens - thanks to new urban technologies and their potential to deliver multiple benefits, within their environment, in real time, and with a high-level of accuracy.

With this new landscape, African cities are positioned to advance the development of global smart cities. Many African leaders and multinational companies are starting to recognize the potential for African smart cities to join the top rank global technology centers. Furthermore, most African cities do not suffer from the crippling costs associated with the maintenance of legacy infrastructures and systems.

As an example, Africa has jumped directly to mobile and wireless services, rather than fixed-line options. The continent already boasts the fastest mobile subscriber growth in the world—with the average subscription rate at 72% and expected to reach 97% by 2017—mobile surge is one of the key factors affecting the growth of smart cities.

Additionally, given that 62% of the continent’s population is under 25 years of age, many international brands will be attracted to an African market of young consumers. These young Africans—with the mindset that any-thing and everything is possible—stimulates entrepreneurship and the spirit of innovation; providing Africa the opportunity for smart cities.

To accompany the growth of smart cities across Africa, BASIC LEAD, a Los Angeles and Abidjan-based trade show organizer, has developed SMART CITY AFRICA, a country-centric, B2B, forum and program promot-ing innovative urban technologies that can accelerate the development of smart cities.

The 3-day event is tailored for corporate sponsors, suppliers of urban technologies, civil servants, entrepre-neurs, investors and start-ups.

Due to the dramatic migration shift from rural to urban areas, the SMART CITY AFRICA program will deliver premium networking, informative and project acceleration opportunities critical to the economic development and sustainability goals of the hosting country.

WHY CÔTE D’IVOIRE?Well-managed urbanization can progress Côte d’Ivoire’s national growth and its middle class. The urban population of Côte d'Ivoire amounts to 54.2% (2015) and boasts an annual growth rate of 3.69%. Small cities with low urbanization levels facilitate internal scale economies by unleashing the agricultural potential of its region. Secondary cities generate localization economies through efficient regional trade and transport, while large cities stimulate urbanization economies for innovation and global competitiveness. Major urban areas include Yamoussoukro (capital) 259,000, Abidjan (seat of government) 4.86 million and Bouake 762,000. The country is well connected with over 22 million mobile users and close to 6 million internet aficionados. In terms of population, the city of Abidjan comes second in West Africa, outnumbered only by Lagos. It's status confirms that a fast-growing number of international events and summits are based there. In 2017 for instance, Abidjan will host the 8th edition of the “Games of La Francophonie”, a sporting event for French speaking nations held every four years. From Abidjan airport's packed arrival halls to the hotels and plush villas mushrooming across the city, Côte d’Ivoire—an economy of 25 million people with some of West Africa’s best infrastructure and the world's biggest cocoa producer—is booming, after years of turmoil and civil war. Côte d’Ivoire ranked second behind Nigeria this year on Nielsen's African Prospects Indicator, an index com-bining macro-economic, business, retail and consumer outlooks. The government is predicting growth of 9.6% this year, making the country a standout performer on a continent, considering commodity prices, capital outflows and tumbling currencies. Côte d’Ivoire is the largest marketplace in Francophone Africa with a denser road network than in most African countries. Robust growth is driven by public and private infrastructure investment, household consumption and higher prices for coffee, cocoa beans, and other food products in big demand worldwide. Since the business environment earned IMF praise, Côte d’Ivoire is also becoming very attractive for foreign direct investment. The airport of Abidjan specifically had 1.3 million passengers in 2014, double the tally from four years ago. Furthermore, as a member of the West African franc zone, whose currency is pegged to the Euro, Côte d’Ivoire offers investors protection from inflation and the rate of exchange fluctua-tions. Additionally, the African Development Bank started moving its headquarters back to Abidjan last year.

Côte d’Ivoire is not only dealing with France exclusively, it has flung the doors wide open to new partners. China is financing and carrying out the crucial expansion of Abidjan’s port. Korea is a partner in a light rail project. A Tunisian company led a major highway expansion. A Turkish company is launching water taxis while a Kuwait firm got the contract for airport logistics. Governmental assistance to upgrade long-neglected infrastructure is gaining momentum. New bridges and highways have eased traffic congestion, and a revamping of the power grid has ensured that manufacturing and industrial sectors don’t face the extended blackouts that plague other neighboring coun-tries. As cities continue to grow across the country, looking at ways in which science, technology and innovation can bolster sustainable urbanization and speed up access to good public services has become a strategic priority for Côte d’Ivoire’s new administration.
