| Abstract |
ICT governance in smart cities refers to efficient ICT public investment to guide cities in the achievement of their strategic goals so that cities would be able to provide a better quality of life for citizens. Thus, ICT governance in smart cities comes to be a relevant domain of study to increase public value for the local community. Nevertheless, few studies focused on ICT governance in smart cities, especially in the Brazilian context, which evidenced a gap research in this domain. Empirical studies developed in Brazilian smart cities revealed lack of an ICT governance approach in the municipalities. Therefore, in this work, by applying a survey conducted with Brazilian professionals involved with smart city projects, governance, and information technology in the public sector, we introduce a set of challenges, lessons learned, and recommendations concerning ICT governance in smart city projects. The findings are of great importance for academics and practitioners involved with cities' public management concerning ICT-enabled governance. |
