In the future, according to Society 5.0, human-centered design and technology will come together to build peaceful and sustainable societies. Smart cities are one of the key factors, which improve living conditions, boost the economy, and reduce their negative environmental impact by using IoT, AI, and big data (Society 5.0 – ASCA Tech Lab, n.d.; Deguchi et al., 2020).

In Society 5.0, digital and physical spaces are integrated to create smart cities, including smart grids to optimize energy use, reduce emissions, and ease congestion through intelligent transportation systems, and connected public services for better health, safety, and educational services. Real-time data collection and city performance analysis are infrastructures in Society 5.0 that help planners and residents make informed decisions to improve their way of living (Society 5.0 – ASCA Tech Lab, n.d.; Deguchi et al., 2020).

For example, traffic can be managed and adjusted based on real-time traffic flow provided by smart traffic management systems, which reduce travel time and pollution. Healthcare can be improved in many ways, such as monitoring patients' health remotely, delivering quick interventions, and reducing the burden on hospitals. Moreover, supporting green energy and an eco-friendly environment is one of the goals that Society 5.0 should achieve by using green building technologies and smart urban planning (Hitachi, Ltd., 2019).

In short, Society 5.0 cities are meant to be sustainable, resilient, and citizen-centric.

Sustainable Development in Society 5.0

Sustainable development is one of the essential concepts that defines the vision of Society 5.0, one of its critical goals is to always approach environmental problems with effective green solutions, as well as proper utilization of resources. It aligns and develops mechanical expertise that complements sustainable development to foster a sustainable and healthy civilization.

Renewable systems such as solar, wind, and bioenergy, along with smart grids and energy-efficient devices, are instrumental. These technologies work to minimize the consequences of climate change, decrease emissions of greenhouse gases, and popularize the use of clean energy. For example, smart grids used in managing electricity usage and distribution ensure proper usage without wastage (Global e-Sustainability Initiative, 2015).

Another area of great importance is the proper utilization of resources. This involves the application of IoT and AI in sensing, controlling, and optimizing resources such as water, waste, and raw materials. For instance, smart water management systems can recognize leaks in the water supply and improve water consumption, while an AI-driven waste management system can enhance recycling and reduce the use of dump sites (International Energy Agency, 2019).

With the help of such integration, it is possible to provide a transition to the next stage of society’s development – Society 5.0. The reason behind this is to establish a sustainable development context that fosters economic development without exhausting Earth’s resources. To facilitate this transformation, entrepreneurs need to come up with and introduce various solutions that address the sustainability goals (Fukuyama, 2018).

society 5.0 Integration of technologies:

The smooth blending of disparate technical platforms or systems to improve efficacy, efficiency, and functionality in a variety of fields is referred to as technology integration. Numerous industries, including automation, telecommunications, and information technology, may be involved in this combination (Balasubramanian et al., 2020)​.

Integration is essential for creating synergy and optimizing the potential of individual technologies in today's interconnected society. For example, combining cloud computing and IoT (Internet of Things) devices allows real-time monitoring and control of interconnected equipment (Raptis et al., 2019)​​.

The integration of IoT with big data analytics enables organizations to process vast amounts of data generated by IoT devices, leading to predictive maintenance and enhanced operational efficiency (Chen et al., 2020)​.

Moreover, integration fosters innovation by enabling cross-disciplinary collaboration and the development of comprehensive solutions that address multifaceted challenges. It also streamlines operations, reduces redundancies, and improves communication by creating interconnected ecosystems (Luckin & Cukurova, 2019)​.

However, successful integration requires careful planning, compatibility assessments, and robust cybersecurity measures to safeguard data and systems from potential vulnerabilities. Despite the challenges, the integration of technologies continues to drive advancements, transform industries, and shape the future of innovation and progress (International Energy Agency, 2019)​.

Effectuation

 OSAMAH AHMED AL-NAGGAR(TP078781) (University of Virginia, 2019) Effectuation is considered a framework of entrepreneurship designed for decision-making that focuses on taking advantage of accessible resources and adaptation to changing circumstances. It was developed by Saras Sarasvathy in a way that focuses on setting specific goals and systematically planning to achieve them, which is contrasted with the traditional causation approaches. Instead, effectuation starts with the available tools, letting objectives develop naturally through recurrent processes of engagement with stakeholders and the environment. (What Is Effectuation? Effectuation 101, n.d.) Central to effectuation is the "Bird-in-Hand Principle," which encourages entrepreneurs to begin with what they know, who they are, and whom they know. This principle highlights the importance of using existing resources and capabilities to take initial steps and shows how crucial it is. The "Affordable Loss Principle...

Generating Good Ideas

OSAMAH AHMED AL-NAGGAR(TP078781) Good Ideas (Petch, 2016) A good idea results from three factors: innovation, practicality, and market demand. At its core, a good idea fulfills a need or solves a specific problem. Inventing new technologies or things is not the determinant of how good an idea is; rather, creating things that add value to people's lives or improve existing innovations does (SmartStorming, n.d.). A good idea is also a feasible idea. It means it should be implementable with resources and technology that are available, ensuring it's not just a theoretical concept but can become a viable product or service for customers (Forbes Business Council, 2023). Marketing is also crucial. Even the smartest, most realistic idea will struggle or even fail to gain traction if it has poor marketing. Understanding the target audience helps in grasping the needs and desires of potential customers (Emeritus, n.d.). Another distinguishing factor of a good idea is scalability. An idea...
