Smart Cities are those using information and communication technologies based on a multipurpose network structure. This kind of technology is available through patent information. Thus, this paper aims to characterize Smart City technologies. The results pointed to wireless communication network technologies and traffic control systems as the most recurrent technologies. A small group of companies is responsible for a significant part of patent fillings, and the fields analyzed have different levels of attractiveness, with a predominance of technologies based on wireless communication networks. These results allowed us to evaluate potential threats and opportunities for Brazilian organizations that develop technologies in the technological fields analyzed. The study results also allowed comparative analyzes between institutions and countries, thus generating subsidies to improve industrial property management and investment decisions in Research and Development.
