Abstract With the continuous growth of the world's population, increased pollution levels, global warming, resource scarcity, lack of physical and social infrastructure, hyper-urbanization as well as changes driven by the fast-advancing technology sector, there is a need for fresh input to the strategic development of cities. In the battle for cost-effectiveness and ensuring environmental stability, it is of utmost importance that cities alter their strategies and approaches to achieve higher efficiency in all domains. This study includes the identification of a smart city's application areas and will investigate whether they work in practice in a cross-country comparison of smart cities. A best practice framework that includes successful smart city application areas and their potential including a holistic strategy is provided based on a solid literature foundation and validated by empirical research. The findings of this research suggest that a holistic strategic approach of a smart city's application areas contributes to achieving its maximum potential through a government that not only makes data publicly available, but also sets the right framework for modern business models, and thinks comprehensively to deploy resources where they are most needed.
