| Abstract |
This research pinpoints key drivers of smart governance in Prishtina, Kosovo, using a quantitative approach. A self-report survey with 1,536 respondents, selected through stratified probability sampling, provided the necessary data. Principal component analysis was ap-plied to assess the questionnaire's internal structure, and regression analysis helped reveal smart governance predic-tors. Two pivotal findings emerged concerning Prishtina's smart governance. Smart city management and smart col-laboration were the most significant determinants, with the former demonstrating a slightly stronger correlation. These results underscore the role of effective city man-agement practices and stakeholder collaboration in di-recting governance outcomes in smart cities. In light of this, policymakers are advised to emphasize stakeholder collaboration in smart city initiatives. For Prishtina, this translates into increased cooperation, transparency, acces-sibility to data in management practices, and a focus on infrastructure and public services to enhance smart city governance. |
