In so doing, we derive two different processes that could be reused as templates for many other cities in both Switzerland, China or elsewhere. Moreover, to address the far-end goal of actually reaching Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within cities, we propose the vision of a sharable platform as a Smart City Brain for Sustainable Development that will allow the collection of data from individual projects, share them within a community and create re-usable visualisations of important KPIs and other indicators. We also extend the existing concept of technological connectivity to include product material data as well in order to support circularity.Keyphrases: business process management, cirular economy, knime, public transportation wit e vehicles, smart city brain, sustainable development In: Aurona Gerber and Knut Hinkelmann (editors).
