If we want to implement Smart City solutions in Slovakia - we need inevitably a farsighted view and a new approach in the development of municipalities, cities and regions, their management and planning that use innovationand as well as a new approach by the state, companies and the academic community. In this regard, the Ministry of Economy of the Slovak Republic prepared the first document of its kind in Slovakia "Supporting Innovative Solutions in Slovak Towns". The Ministry has also developed a financial scheme that will support pilot testing of innovative solutions in practice directly in the city. At the same time, we are preparing the Smart City Portal, which will provide the most information about the project and at the same time serve as an inspiration by providing practical results of the project implementation.
