Choose affordable digital tools the municipality can encourage or develop

Communication interfaces (exchanging and sharing data)

Municipal connectivity infrastructure (support network and connectivity)

• Municipal telecommunication networks: fibre optics

Define positioning depending on technical, human and financial resources

• Data availability: how can data be made accessible to the municipality, how can third party stakeholders be given access to data to develop new services? How can some data be made open?
• Innovation agenda: how to target, depending on resources, actions supporting digital innovation? Towards which co-funders should we turn?
• Presence of a municipal team or small in-house group, familiar with and interested in digital innovation?
• Possibilities of releasing municipal funds to finance open innovation partnership events and subsidise start-ups for developing a prototype?
• Possibilities of municipal financing to undertake investments in local infrastructure (Wi-Fi terminals, for example, GIS GIS Geographic information system: system designed to gather, store, process, analyse, manage and display all types of spatial and geographic data , servers to host production)?
