Smart City Expo World Congress 2025: Shaping the Cities of Tomorrow

The Smart City Expo World Congress (SCEWC) returns for its 14th edition from 4 to 6 November 2025 in Barcelona, reaffirming its place as the world’s leading event for urban innovation and sustainable development.

This year’s theme, “The Time for Cities,” highlights the role of urban centres in addressing global challenges—from the energy transition and mobility shifts to digitalisation and social equity. With over 25,000 attendees, 1,100+ exhibitors, and 600+ speakers, SCEWC brings together governments, companies, startups, academia, and civil society to foster dialogue, partnerships and practical solutions.

The 2025 programme covers:

  • Energy & Environment: Smart grids, decarbonisation, and circular infrastructure;
  • Mobility: Clean transport, MaaS, connected infrastructure;
  • Governance & Economy: Digital transformation of the public sector and multilevel governance;
  • Living & Inclusion: Affordable housing, health tech, and accessible digital services;
  • Infrastructure & Building: Sustainable urban design and net-zero construction.

FEDARENE members involved in urban climate neutrality, regional digital strategies, or citizen-centred planning will benefit from high-level exchanges, best practices, and opportunities to connect with key stakeholders. The event also hosts the World Smart City Awards, spotlighting impactful urban projects worldwide.
