This article is the result of an action-research carried out on the territory of the Rennes metropolis (SmartRennes project). We propose a description and analysis of the governance of the smart city based on qualitative approach. Contrary to the idea of a centralised smart city strongly managed by one public actor, we note that the Rennes-style Smart city is the result of governance distributed between different poles. We provide complementary methods of description of this governance: a historical vision of smart city’s actions and measures, an analysis of the values and issues raised by the stakeholders and a network analysis of governance. Based on qualitative surveys, these results demonstrate the value of a monographic approach in the study of urban innovation and smart city.
