Smart cities are the result of the increasingly urgent need to orient our lives towards sustainability. Therefore, these cities use infrastructure, innovation, and technology to improve the quality of life of their citizens. Being a strategic issue that brings new challenges, the organizers invite the academic community to participate in the VIII Ibero-American Congress of Smart Cities (ICSC-CITIES 2025). The congress will be a discussion forum to create synergies among different research groups to favor the development of Smart Cities. Authors are invited to register and submit manuscripts and contribute to knowledge development and integration in different scenarios.

ICSC-CITIES 2025 will take place on November 10-12, 2025 in Capital de la Tecnología y Sostenibilidad, Puebla, Mexico, organized by Centro de Innovación e Integración de Tecnologías Avanzadas and the Centro de Investigación en Computación of the Instituto Politécnico Nacional.
