Abstract

Dördüncü Sanayi Devriminin temel unsurlarından en önemlileri olarak kabul edilen bilgi, değişim, hız ve inovasyon girişimciler için yeni iş fırsatlarının önünü açmaktadır. Yaratıcılık, inovasyon, iş birliği ve problem çözme yetkinlikleri girişimcileri fırsatları belirlemede ve hayata geçirmede ise bir adım ileriye taşımaktadır. İş fikri geliştirme fırsatı arayan girişimciler için dijitalleşme, günümüzde en önemli iş sahalarını açan bir anahtar olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Girişimcilerin, hayata geçirdikleri dijitalleşme tabanlı Ar-Ge ve teknoloji içeren iş fikirlerinin şehirlerin kalkınmasına fayda sağladığı görülmektedir. Akıllı şehirlerde bulunan birçok farklı alandaki avantajlı uygulamaların bireyler tarafından yaygın olarak kullanılması ile şehirlerdeki yaşam kalitesinin arttığı bilinmektedir. Çalışmada teknoloji tabanlı inovatif çözümlerin hayata geçirildiği akıllı şehir uygulamaları incelenmektedir. Hem ulusal hem de uluslararası başarılı akıllı şehir uygulamalarına yer verilmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı; Türkiye’de akıllı şehirlerin yaygınlaştırılmasında ve bu şehirlerde yaşayan bireylerin elde edeceği faydaların artırılmasında girişimcilerin geliştirebileceği dijitalleşme tabanlı fırsat alanlarının neler olabileceğine yönelik öneriler verilmesidir.
