Abstract Smart city policy has been employed through the last two decades to accommodate the urban modifications, which utilize information technology, innovation, and smart management for urban governance. The study aims to discuss the case study for the Egyptian condition's smart city model and policy, using policy narrative analysis for the fourth-generation cities and the pioneer model. From a policy perspective, the Egyptian smart city model's contribution has received little attention from previous studies dealing with the smart city in the Egyptian context. Therefore, the present research explores presenting and discuss the Egyptian smart city model as an innovation development policy perspective. The analysis employs The new administrative capital as a case study. The policy documents and the online interview with Administrative Capital for Urban Development Company officials have been used. Our findings found that the NAC might be the successful path for the smart city model inside the Egyptian context, considering some implementation policy recommendations. The NAC's innovative components deem a prompt to invigorate the regional and national levels' innovation process. The Egyptian case study's smart city model uses a holistic strategy with a quadruple helix to develop the urban system to attract knowledge and innovation. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
