中国国际服务贸易交易会由中华人民共和国商务部和北京市人民政府共同主办，是全球服务贸易领域规模最大的综合型展会。本次专题论坛汇聚了全球顶级专家学者共议全球发展核心体验，以智慧城市全球话语权丰富中国式现代化内涵为引导，探讨了智慧城市与区域融合、国际关系、全球治理的前沿话题，旨在共同推动智慧城市的国际化发展。
《2024阿盟智慧城市排名》是本次论坛的核心成果。报告显示，阿联酋的阿布扎比、迪拜、沙迦，卡塔尔的多哈，以及沙特的利雅得、麦加位居总分排名前10%。在分项排名上，这三国的城市也占据显著优势。在总分第二档（即10%-30%），阿联酋、卡塔尔和沙特阿拉伯的阿尔艾因、阿尔赖扬、达曼、吉达、麦地那、塔布克等城市表现抢眼。但北非埃及的开罗、苏伊士、新开罗，以及阿尔及利亚的阿尔及尔、摩洛哥的卡萨布兰卡等城市也成功跻身第二档。在传统基础设施、数字基础设施和制度基础设施等分项的第二档排名中（即10%-30%），北非城市依然取得不错成绩，例如摩洛哥的卡萨布兰卡、拉巴特，埃及的塞得港、亚历山大，以及突尼斯首都突尼斯城都出现在这一档。
本次论坛设置三个讨论议题，即区域融合为导向的智慧城市、国际关系，国际金融与全球治理，它覆盖了全球可持续发展所面临的核心挑战。朱旭峰教授主持了“全球治理、国际金融与区域融合”的主题。埃及国际合作部Ashraf Momtaz就智慧城市的海量投资或融资表示担忧。北京市商务局对外经济合作处处长庄建蓉女士认为，较大的基础设施项目应由政府主导，效率优先的项目应由市场作为主要投资方，项目来源可是国内外基金。尼日利亚驻华大使馆临时代办巴巴加纳·瓦基勒（Babagana Wakil）大使阁下和清华公管学院卓越访问教授、中国人民银行金融研究所研究总监钱美君均认为仍然应该重视国际货币基金组织和联合国等在全球发展和地区融合的金融及治理中可以发挥的重要作用，深圳高等金融研究院实践教授及政策与实践研究所所长、香港特别行政区特首政策组专家组成员肖耿教授则认为不应对其抱有过高期待。进一步的，巴巴加纳·瓦基勒大使阁下认为智慧城市建设应更有包容性，让更多人受益以脱贫减贫。朱旭峰教授认为数字鸿沟并非是智慧城市发展的负面影响，而是后者发展不充分的结果。
