The former TeleCities sub-network of EUROCITIES is chaired by the City of Bologna and has about 120 members, also including small and medium-sized cities.

The network cooperates with European business partners on issues relating to the Information Society.

The EUROCITIES Knowledge Society Forum’s political profile is based on a combination of networking activities, research and high-level strategic work which targets the definition of Information Society initiatives, and resulting policies of European cities.
It provides cities and business partners with a platform for exchanges of good practice and for cooperation on relevant policy issues in a European Framework.

Currently, the forum consists of the following working groups:

• Broadband
  
• eCare
  
• eGovernment Bench-learning
  
• eGov 2.0
  
• eInclusion
