The Transformation of Commerce and Urban Living

CITYNEXT brings together smart technologies, digital services, vending, and self-service systems that make urban life more efficient and sustainable—all on a single platform.
As a powerful hub at the forefront of urban transformation, CITYNEXT creates new business opportunities and drives the future of city ecosystems.

Not just smart—designed for living cities: CITYNEXT.

Expanding our vision of technological urbanism, we have transformed our vending-focused exhibition—successfully organized for over six years—into a broader, integrated platform for smart city solutions, elevating it to a new dimension under the CITYNEXT brand.

Today’s cities are no longer just places to live; they are dynamic ecosystems shaped by automation, connected systems, and intelligent service infrastructures. CITYNEXT serves as a next-generation meeting point where vending, self-service, and automation technologies converge with urban services—bringing together commerce and digital transformation on a single platform.

Through smart micro-service points integrated into everyday urban life, CITYNEXT introduces a new service model defined by speed, accessibility, efficiency, and user-centric design. Because the cities of the future will operate through automated, intelligent, and uninterrupted services.

Take your place at CITYNEXT—the global meeting point for automated commerce and smart city solutions.

CITYNEXT 2027 Theme: SMART SERVICE ERA

Cities are no longer defined by physical space alone; they are evolving into intelligent systems that operate on data, analyze user needs in real time, and deliver seamless services.

SMART SERVICE ERA defines both the name and the new standard of this transformation. Powered by automation, artificial intelligence, and integrated digital infrastructures, cities become faster, more accessible, and more efficient in the way they serve.

This new era encompasses a broad ecosystem—from smart city technologies to vending and self-service solutions. Integrated into every aspect of daily life, these systems create intelligent micro-service networks that respond instantly to user needs, placing experience at the center.

SMART SERVICE ERA is not only about growth, but about redefining how cities operate. By merging physical infrastructure with digital services, it introduces a sustainable, data-driven, and continuously functioning urban model.

Throughout 2027, conferences and events within CITYNEXT will explore the technologies, business models, and real-world applications shaping this new era—driving the industry forward.

In this new era, cities do not simply exist;they continuously operate, deliver services, and enhance everyday life.
