It answers important topical questions relating to urban sustainable development and human well-being, namely, how can we implement policies and programs that can make cities ?smart? and boost their knowledge-based development? How can such programs reduce inequalities and enhance the environment where people live and work? The authors suggest a new approach to the creation of sustainable smart cities, not only in metropolises but also in smaller urban spaces. They advance the body of knowledge in entrepreneurship literature by examining both the European regional understanding of entrepreneurship and the quality of life and well-being at city levels. They also provide synthetic indexes to assess the relationship between perceived quality of life and entrepreneurship. This book stimulates the debate on the role of smart cities in promoting entrepreneurship, which is a currently under-investigated topic in Europe, and is of interest to a wide range of practitioners, professionals and academics in the area of well-being and quality of life research, urban studies, public policy, and sustainable development. . 410 0$aHuman Well-Being Research and Policy Making,$x2522-5375 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aSustainability 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aQuality of Life Research 606 $aSustainability 606 $aUrban Sociology 606 $aSocio-Economic Policy 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 14$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aUrban Sociology. 615 24$aSocio-Economic Policy. 676 $a307.1216 700 $aIvaldi$b Enrico$0799896 702 $aCiacci$b Andrea 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910734824003321 996 $aSmart Sustainable Cities and Knowledge-Based Economy$93404557 997 $aUNINA
