Abstract A great number of implications may be associated with the progressive adoption of information and communication technology (ICT) and related tools and applications in the city space. Notably, ICT-enabled solutions, in such domains as connectivity, safety, and mobility, have pervasive impact on how market agents construe of economic opportunities in a given (smart) city as well as on features of economic exchange. Increased velocity of transactions, geographical distribution of contracting parties, spread of cues about the market etc. seem to confirm it. This notwithstanding, the debate exploring the connection between smart city and business activity remains nascent. By means of delineating some aspects of this debate, this chapter makes a case for three complementary approaches to the business-smart city nexus. By applying it to the case of selected (smart) cities in Poland, it is then argued that a positive relationship exists between ICT-enabled infrastructure, considered as an aspect of those cities locational attractiveness, and business activity taking place there. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Anna Visvizi, Orlando Troisi, and Mara Grimaldi; individual chapters, the contributors.
