It seeks to reach consensus, identify and recognise those communities around the world who are successfully engaging in formal and systematic development processes under the flag of Knowledge Cities.

Identity Capital in the MAKCi Framework refers to all formal and informal capital elements in the city that have contributed and/or are contributing to determine the city’s identity, its clarity and differentiation (i.e., historic profile, city characterization, belonginess etc).
2. Intelligence capital
Intelligence Capital refers to the city’s systems capacity to sense, make sense of, and respond to external agents and events which are significant to the city’s welfare (i.e. city’s strategic planning agencies, city public/private Future Centres, prospective studies etc).

6. Human Collective capital
Human Capital in its collective base refers to the collective cultural fitness and team-based value-generating capacities of all citizens that contribute to the city’s system of capitals (i.e. demographic structure, public health, social welfare, intellectual heritage, civic culture, innovation and entrepreneurial capacities etc).
