4 Cities of 21 st century: New type of urban space Two driving forces: (1) Innovation economy + (2) Digital spatiality 1. The contemporary urban economy and society are dependent on innovation ecosystems: knowledge driven localities, innovation clusters, global hubs, creative cities. R&D, knowledge, innovation, learning and training have become main drivers of cities growth and prosperity A new spatiality (digital) has been added on the physical and institutional space of cities, the urban agglomeration, city activities, infrastructures, regulation and planning. It is composed of broadband networks, user interfaces, internet applications, and e-services. Un umbrella of digital communication and cooperation over the cities.
