Cairo is the leading African city on the 2023 Smart City Index (SCI) as it ranked no 108 among 141 cities worldwide. The index offers a balanced focus on economic and technological aspects of smart cities on the one hand, and “humane dimensions” of smart cities (quality of life, environment, inclusiveness) on the other.

The coverage of the SCI and SCI Report has increased by 20 percent to include 141 cities (previously 118 were measured), distributed across the world. This reflects the SCI’s ongoing efforts to be a global index, and to facilitate the benchmarking of all kinds of cities, whatever their size or level of development.

The Index, produced by The Smart City Observatory, part of the IMD World Competitiveness Center, differs from others by being citizen-centric. It combines hard data and survey responses to show the extent to which technology is enabling cities to address the challenges they face to achieve a higher quality of life for their inhabitants.
