Abstract

European integration is a multidimensional process, which can be seen both in economic and innovations aspects. The growth of importance of digitalization and smart cities development can be analyzed as a factor of European integration. A significant number of smart cities, which may be connected in a network, is located in Western Europe. This article reflects on searching for European Integration conditions as was as for turning points in digitalization process. It is intended to draw attention to several issues related to European Integration, which are crucial from the vantage point of Europe’s prospective development. Location of smart cities and their networks indicates on weak innovation capacity and development disparities in some member countries of European Union. Therefore, smart cities can be also an indicator of European integration process but their wider cooperation can create new solutions for developing regions of European Union.
