Open & Agile Smart Cities (OASC) is a non-profit organization whose members are cities and communities around the world. Its ambition is to leverage technology to improve the quality of life of citizens. Currently, 155 cities are members, in 31 countries from Argentina to Finland and Japan.
“Openness, interoperability and transparency are key to the successful digital transformation of the public sector. OASC and its member and partner organizations are one step away from a global market where urban digital solutions can scale up for the benefit of the economy, cities and their citizens.”
DAVOR MEERMAN, CEO, OPEN & AGILE SMART CITIES

It promotes use of open and minimal mechanisms to achieve digital interoperability at scale and replicates digital solutions for the benefit of cities and local innovation ecosystems.
