Abstract	The rising growth of the urban population has triggered various social, economic, and environmental problems worldwide. The current challenge is to create sustainable cities "without leaving anyone behind" within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), more specifically ODS#11. In this context, the proposal is to design Smart Cities using interconnected Smart Systems to make the urban ecosystem more efficient and transform and improve citizens' quality of life and environment. The digitization of all services and processes with high technology increases the digital divide and puts at risk the inclusion of some groups, including the elderly and immigrants. The objective of this work is to analyze the integration of immigrants in "Madrid Smart." This research has a qualitative-interpretative approach based on documentary reviews. The implementation of Madrid Smart City runs the risk of promoting inequality among the most vulnerable groups, including some groups of immigrants. The inclusion of all people in this new city model is essential for social cohesion and sustainability. Among the main challenges that Madrid Smart City has for immigrants' inclusion are closing gaps in advanced access to ICT, education, and citizen participation.
