Abstract The transformation of the built environment requires more and more frequently the use of an intelligent management system that is able to offer multiple and simultaneous responses on the issues about the quality life of modern citizens : Economy, People, Mobility, Governance, Environment and Living. This paper pointes out some results of a research aimed to highlight, through the comparison of international experiences, the adaptability of smartness concept to a Mediterranean context area characterized by a great cultural value. There are several models of reference : some examples of sustainable neighborhoods in Europe, the smart street and the smart building in Northern Europe and the Action Plan of Copenhagen, Vancouver and London. The results achieved from the systematizing of these different study cases shows how the concept of smartness applied to the urban context isn't inclined to assert itself as a template to be replicated in a serial manner in all geographic areas. However, it is possible in every urban reality read the specifics of the area in terms of strengths and weaknesses; aim at the creation of networked integrative superstructures; focus the propulsion nodal centers of growth and ensure the continuity of the system through the collection of data and information used in short, medium and long term. In this sense Smart City is an opportunity for the city as a whole. Besides the tantalizing prospect of the access to funding available for the public authorities, it represents a real opportunity to open up to international experiences becoming the protagonist of the transformation.
