Why attend Smart City Expo World Congress?

Smart City Expo World Congress is one of the world’s leading meeting places for cities and urban innovation, bringing together 27,000+ participants, 1,100+ exhibitors and 600+ speakers from across the public and private sectors.

Under the 2026 theme Urban Solutions, Real Impact, the focus is increasingly on moving from ambition to implementation – and on the technologies, partnerships, business models and financing needed to make that happen.

The Expo is particularly relevant for companies, cities and organisations working within AI and digitalisation, energy and climate, circularity, mobility, housing and buildings, urban infrastructure and the blue economy.

For Nordic Edge participants, Barcelona is an opportunity to:

LEARN – Discover international trends, technologies and new approaches to urban transformation.

CONNECT – Meet cities, companies, investors, EU networks and potential partners from across Europe and beyond.

EXPLORE MARKETS – Understand where Nordic solutions can solve real needs and connect with potential customers and partners in new markets.
