It highlights the economic effects of broadband, community-based best practices, and annual Intelligent Community Awards. MissionThe Intelligent Community Forum is a think tank that studies the economic and social development of the 21st-century community. Whether in industrialized or developing nations, communities are challenged to create prosperity, stability and cultural meaning in a world where jobs, investment and knowledge increasingly depend on advances in communications. For the 21st-century community, connectivity is a double-edge sword: threatening established ways of life on the one hand, and offering powerful new tools to build prosperous, inclusive and environmentally sustainable economies on the other. ICF seeks to share the best practices of the world's Intelligent Communities in adapting to the demands of the Broadband Economy, in order to help communities everywhere find sustainable renewal and growth.

For ICF, a "community" is a town, village, city or metropolitan area – or occasionally a state, province or other larger region – that has a distinct identity and the ability to act in a unified manner as a single entity. Its citizens and businesses identify themselves with that community enough to set aside small-scale differences and cooperate for the good of the whole. AwardsSince 1999, ICF has presented annual awards to the Intelligent Community, Intelligent Building, Intelligent Community Technology and Intelligent Community Visionary of the Year. Winners receive an award, a presentation photograph and assistance with promoting the award to their customers, constituents and stakeholders. The Intelligent Community Awards are presented at ICF's annual Summit conference in New York City, produced in association with Polytechnic Institute of New York University. Intelligent Community of the YearThe Intelligent Community of the Year is selected in the final stage of a 10-month award process that begins with selection of the Smart 21 Communities in November of the prior year. Selection of the Intelligent Community of the Year is based on research by Montreal-based E&B Data, developer of innovative information products for decisionmakers in the institutional, corporate and financial sectors.
