Como é viver nas cidades com tecnologia mais avançada do mundo


A inteligência artificial (IA), os carros autônomos e as fontes de energia verde deixam de ser exceções para se tornarem o padrão em escala global. A inovação avança em ritmo sem precedentes, e novas invenções, registradas em patentes, surgem continuamente em países e cidades de todos os continentes. Ainda assim, alguns centros urbanos se destacam por promoverem um progresso mais intenso e integrado.

O Índice de Inovação Global 2025 (GII, na sigla em inglês), publicado anualmente pela Organização Mundial da Propriedade Intelectual (OMPI), identifica os principais polos e países inovadores com base em critérios como investimento, desenvolvimento tecnológico, adoção de inovações e impacto socioeconômico. Segundo o relatório, os cem maiores polos de inovação do planeta — que vão de São Francisco, nos Estados Unidos, até Shenzhen, na China — respondem juntos por mais de 70% do capital de risco e das patentes mundiais.

Para compreender como a tecnologia influencia a vida cotidiana, a BBC conversou com moradores dos cinco principais polos de inovação do mundo, explorando de que forma esses ambientes transformam o cotidiano de quem vive neles e oferecem aos visitantes experiências futurísticas antes mesmo que elas cheguem a outras regiões.

O polo formado por Shenzhen, Hong Kong e Guangzhou, no sul da China, ocupa o primeiro lugar no ranking. Em 2025, a China aparece pela primeira vez entre os dez primeiros países mais inovadores, resultado do aumento de patentes, do avanço científico e do investimento em capital de risco. Nessa região, a inovação é parte inseparável da vida diária.

O britânico Jamie River, residente em Hong Kong há três anos, relata que é possível visitar mercados de rua e encontrar vendedores aceitando pagamentos via QR code ao lado de placas com preços escritos à mão. Pequenos lojistas usam vários aplicativos para gerenciar pedidos de entrega. "A combinação do novo com o antigo cria uma energia peculiar. Ninguém tem medo de testar coisas novas", comenta.

O cartão Octopus, lançado em 1997 para o transporte público, transformou-se em ferramenta de pagamento para compras cotidianas, de máquinas automáticas a parquímetros. River recomenda aos visitantes o passeio de barca Star Ferry à noite, quando ocorre o espetáculo Sinfonia das Luzes, que sincroniza música, lasers e telas de LED em quarenta e três edifícios. Outro ponto de visita é a antiga delegacia PMQ, hoje ocupada por escritórios, lojas e cafés, onde convivem ateliês de caligrafia tradicional e oficinas de impressão 3D.

Sede de gigantes como Huawei e Tencent, Shenzhen evoluiu de uma vila de pescadores para um centro global de tecnologia. A cidade foi escolhida em 1980 como a primeira Zona Econômica Especial da China, recebendo incentivos para impulsionar a inovação. Desde 2008, quando foi nomeada Cidade Criativa da Unesco, passou a abrigar espaços como o Laboratório Aberto de Inovação e o OCT Loft, que oferecem infraestrutura tecnológica acessível.

O morador Leon Huang destaca que esses locais reúnem estudantes, profissionais e entusiastas em um ambiente colaborativo e inclusivo. Entre as atrações, estão os espetáculos de drones na Baía do Parque de Talentos, que chegaram a reunir doze mil aparelhos, estabelecendo recorde mundial.

Em segundo lugar está o polo Tóquio−Yokohama, no Japão, responsável por mais de 10% das patentes internacionais. Para a moradora Dana Yao, o avanço tecnológico japonês é discreto, prático e profundamente humano. Sensores de IA em lojas de conveniência, cartões integrados de transporte e máquinas automáticas são parte do cotidiano.

Entre as experiências recomendadas estão o Henn Na Hotel, em que o check-in é automatizado e o serviço é realizado por robôs, o trem autônomo da linha Yurikamome, com vista panorâmica da baía, e o museu interativo teamLab Planets, que oferece salas imersivas de luz e cor que reagem ao movimento dos visitantes.

Em terceiro lugar, o polo San José−São Francisco, nos Estados Unidos, conhecido como Vale do Silício, concentra a maior quantidade de capital de risco do planeta, gerando 7% de todos os negócios globais e atraindo empreendedores de diversas áreas.

O empresário Ritesh Patel, fundador da Ticket Fairy, afirma que a cidade vive um renascimento tecnológico impulsionado pela inteligência artificial. "Você conversa em um jantar sobre o desafio da sua start-up, e alguém já conhece a pessoa certa para ajudar", diz. Para ele, é possível testar tecnologias que o resto do mundo só conhecerá meses depois — como os carros autônomos Waymo, amplamente usados na região.

A quarta posição pertence a Pequim, que lidera em número de publicações científicas e se destaca por combinar alta tecnologia e tradição. A futurista Elle Farrell-Kingsley descreve a cidade como um ambiente em que inovação, cultura e qualidade de vida coexistem. Aplicativos como Alipay e WeChat concentram pagamentos, tradução e entrega de alimentos. Ela cita o robotáxi Apollo, da Baidu, como símbolo dessa modernidade: "É um carro sem volante e completamente seguro."

Em quinto lugar, Seul, na Coreia do Sul, responde por 5,4% dos pedidos de patentes globais e é líder asiática em investimentos de capital de risco. O morador Chris Oberman afirma que a busca pela inovação vem da escassez de recursos naturais: "Há um impulso coletivo para crescer e não ficar para trás."

Na capital sul-coreana, portas digitais, pagamentos sem dinheiro e lojas automatizadas abertas 24 horas fazem parte da rotina. O rio Cheongyecheon, no centro, é exemplo do planejamento sustentável: mistura natureza, transporte autônomo e design urbano inteligente.

Entre as cidades latino-americanas, São Paulo aparece em quadragésimo nono lugar, e Cidade do México, pela primeira vez no ranking, em septuagésimo nono. Ambas representam o esforço da região em acompanhar o avanço tecnológico global, reforçando a presença latino-americana entre os cem principais polos de inovação do mundo, segundo o relatório da OMPI.

Italians


The peak period of Italian immigration to the United States occurred between 1880 and 1921, when approximately 4.2 million Italians came to America. The vast majority of these immigrants, about 80 percent, hailed from the Mezzogiorno in southern Italy, a region in the midst of great tumult and hardship. Having only been officially unified in 1860, political tension between the government in the north and the rural peasants in the south increased in the 1870s, when the government placed an onerous tax on wheat and salt, which were necessities for southern farmers and fishermen. In the 1880s, disease ravaged both staple and cash crops; malaria and other epidemics also devastated southern Italy during this period. Additionally, a series of earthquakes and the eruptions of Mount Etna and Mount Vesuvius in the early 1900s destroyed cities and killed tens of thousands of people.

Conditions in the United States during this era appeared to be very favorable to many in southern Italy. Wages for both skilled and unskilled laborers in the industrialized US could be three times greater than wages for the same work in the depressed Italian economy. Even illiterate day laborers could find better paying jobs with better working conditions in cities like Boston. In the late nineteenth century, Italian immigrants were often referred to as "birds of passage"−young men who migrated alone, earning money to buy land and support their families at home and eventually returning to Italy. After World War I, however, immigration patterns changed and more Italian immigrants began to bring their families over and put down permanent roots in the region.

Patterns of Settlement

Boston's North End neighborhood became the locus of Italian settlement in eastern New England. Once the home of English colonists and revolutionaries like Paul Revere, Irish and Jewish immigrants settled in the North End before the wave of Italian immigration in the late 1800s. By the early 20th century, the North End was densely filled with tenements, in which tens of thousands of Italians lived. Much of the appeal of the North End for immigrant groups was its proximity to work opportunities on the waterfront and in downtown Boston. By 1920, over 50 percent of Italian immigrants in Boston lived in the North End. Those who could afford more spacious dwellings moved across the harbor to East Boston, which by the mid-twentieth century became the city's largest Italian-American community. Others moved to nearby suburbs such as Somerville, Revere and Saugus, especially after World War II. But even as immigrants and their children moved to these areas, many Italian small businesses and restaurants remained in the North End, and it is still an important center of Italian culture in New England.

Workforce Participation

Most Italian immigrants in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries worked menial, unskilled jobs upon their arrival in Boston, as day laborers, dockworkers, or fruit sellers. Others opened shops and small businesses, and some skilled workers (like tailors) found higher-paying jobs. In neighborhoods like the North End and East Boston, immigrants operated Italian restaurants that attracted a growing clientele from across the city. For the earlier "birds of passage," though, assimilating into the wider American culture was not a priority; for more permanent Italian settlers, cultural obstacles such as the language barrier and lower levels of education made upward mobility difficult. Within a few generations, however, Italian Americans in Boston became better educated and were able to move into middle-class and professional occupations, including some of the highest echelons of business and politics.

Others opened shops and small businesses, and some skilled workers (like tailors) found higher-paying jobs. In neighborhoods like the North End and East Boston, immigrants operated Italian restaurants that attracted a growing clientele from across the city. For the earlier "birds of passage," though, assimilating into the wider American culture was not a priority; for more permanent Italian settlers, cultural obstacles such as the language barrier and lower levels of education made upward mobility difficult. Within a few generations, however, Italian Americans in Boston became better educated and were able to move into middle-class and professional occupations, including some of the highest echelons of business and politics.

Italians


The peak period of Italian immigration to the United States occurred between 1880 and 1921, when approximately 4.2 million Italians came to America. The vast majority of these immigrants, about 80 percent, hailed from the Mezzogiorno in southern Italy, a region in the midst of great tumult and hardship. Having only been officially unified in 1860, political tension between the government in the north and the rural peasants in the south increased in the 1870s, when the government placed an onerous tax on wheat and salt, which were necessities for southern farmers and fishermen. In the 1880s, disease ravaged both staple and cash crops; malaria and other epidemics also devastated southern Italy during this period. Additionally, a series of earthquakes and the eruptions of Mount Etna and Mount Vesuvius in the early 1900s destroyed cities and killed tens of thousands of people.

Conditions in the United States during this era appeared to be very favorable to many in southern Italy. Wages for both skilled and unskilled laborers in the industrialized US could be three times greater than wages for the same work in the depressed Italian economy. Even illiterate day laborers could find better paying jobs with better working conditions in cities like Boston. In the late nineteenth century, Italian immigrants were often referred to as "birds of passage"−young men who migrated alone, earning money to buy land and support their families at home and eventually returning to Italy. After World War I, however, immigration patterns changed and more Italian immigrants began to bring their families over and put down permanent roots in the region.

Patterns of Settlement

Boston's North End neighborhood became the locus of Italian settlement in eastern New England. Once the home of English colonists and revolutionaries like Paul Revere, Irish and Jewish immigrants settled in the North End before the wave of Italian immigration in the late 1800s. By the early 20th century, the North End was densely filled with tenements, in which tens of thousands of Italians lived. Much of the appeal of the North End for immigrant groups was its proximity to work opportunities on the waterfront and in downtown Boston. By 1920, over 50 percent of Italian immigrants in Boston lived in the North End. Those who could afford more spacious dwellings moved across the harbor to East Boston, which by the mid-twentieth century became the city's largest Italian-American community. Others moved to nearby suburbs such as Somerville, Revere and Saugus, especially after World War II. But even as immigrants and their children moved to these areas, many Italian small businesses and restaurants remained in the North End, and it is still an important center of Italian culture in New England.
