Territorial aspects • What can we learn by looking at the territorial
dimension?ESPON: European Spatial Planning Observatory Network
• Do different qualities of Territorial Capital lead to different potentials for «humanness»?
• How should this potential be used to steer funding strategies for Human Smart Cities?Place-based Smart Specialisation
