Abstract The increase of urban population raises high challenges to city management policies because of agglomeration, pollution, heritage endangerment and overall welfare of inhabitants. In the same time, urban population is more educated and more prone to using and responding to new technologies; hence Smart solutions may be prove to be efficient means of addressing negative issues of urban living. The paper presents the challenges of adopting Smart technologies, with special focus on Bucharest - one of the most crowded and polluted capitals in Europe. A thorough analysis of Smart projects developed in this capital reveals that some steps in the right direction for a Smart city have been taken. Recommendations for future Smart city development are made after a thorough analyse of the already implemented Smart solutions and their overall effect on the population.
