The research is based on current literature overview regarding city management and smart city strategy. The main goal of this research is to detect which aspects of city management support and smart city strategy are crucial for big data technology adoption in cities. Furthermore, a case study of an adopter city of big data technologies will be described to investigate some of the good practices regarding smart city projects. The Importance-Performance Map Analysis is applied to fulfil the goals of the research. Based on the Importance-Performance Map Analysis, the existence of smart city strategy that targets efficiency and technological advancements of the city's soft infrastructure is recognized as most important for technology adoption initiatives. In addition, the readiness of municipalities, city council and city administration to accept the financial and organizational risks relating to the adoption of technology is important.
