The article is inspired by the project Skills4Cities that the cluster is implementing in partnership with five other European organizations. It concerns the smart city platform of Burgas that represents a good practice for creating smart cities and is a case study for smart city projects. The case of Burgas, the second largest city on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast, is based on more than 8 years of history, when it was the beginning of the adoption and development of this concept in the seaside city.
