A technopolis is the product of the metamorphosis of a residential or industrial city that chooses to transform itself from a community primarily funded by retail-or industry-driven revenue, to one where commerce evolves from knowledge.

A technopolis combines technology (knowledge, art, creativity) and Polis (city). A technopolis includes homes, businesses, schools, banks, and all entities that frame a city. As a result, a technopolis is a knowledge-driven, revenue-producing community. The technopolis city is dynamic, intellectually attuned to the fabric of change, actively committed to improving its educational inventory, offering its citizens the highest quality of life. When a community earns its revenues--public and private--from diversified intellectual products, a technopolis emerges.
