This open access book introduces H-UTokyo Lab’s ideas about the architecture for Society 5.0, including the process and organizational infrastructure for building smart cities that embody the Society 5.0 vision. It introduces six factors critical to the success of efforts to build people-centric sustainable smart cities. Each factor represents something needed to enable a local government to build a smart city, address the local issues, and ensure that these efforts contribute toward a people-centric sustainable society. The book is not only focused on initiatives that use digital innovation but extends beyond technological aspects, it also emphasizes the overall architecture—the general structures and organizational designs that encompass digital initiatives among other things. Through this book, readers get a better understanding of the current status of the smart-city agenda and its future path. The book is designed to serve as a handbook for public officials in national and local government, for businesspeople, for academics, for those in the third sector, and for any other actor involved in this undertaking.
