Abstract

The concept of smart cities has gained increasing interest from both academia and industry since its inception in the 1990s, with local governments and city councils worldwide engaging in smart city development programs. However, transitioning from a traditional city to a smart city is a complex process that involves various risks, which can be categorised into technical, organisational, and social risks. Smart city transition programs not only transform service delivery modes but also profoundly impact residents' daily lives. These programs can lead to significant social risks, such as digital divide, social isolation, and discrimination. Furthermore, transitioning to a smart city involves complex and transformative changes, requiring significant alterations in individual behaviours, cultural norms, and established social patterns.
