Tehomet pioneering Smart City Solutions in Indonesia

In a landmark collaboration between Finnish and Indonesian technology leaders, the Smart City Innovation Cluster (SCIC) has successfully facilitated a Smart Pole Proof of Concept in Indonesia. This initiative represents a major step forward in the development of next-generation urban infrastructure, laying the groundwork for the large-scale deployment of smart city solutions in Nusantara, Indonesia’s new capital city.

This project demonstrates the power of global partnerships, bringing together Finnish expertise in smart infrastructure and Indonesian capabilities in implementation and urban development.

“This collaboration showcases how Finnish smart infrastructure can support cities worldwide in their digital transformation. We are proud to see our multi-functional Smart Poles deployed in Indonesia as part of this pioneering initiative.”– Mr. Sami Huuskonen, Smart Solutions Product Manager, Tehomet

The successful deployment of the project marks the beginning of broader smart city integrations across Indonesia. With a proven reference case now in place, Tehomet and its partners are well-positioned to expand smart infrastructure solutions, ensuring long-term benefits for urban communities, policymakers, and businesses.

Creating Local Impact and Enabling Sustainable Growth

Beyond its technological significance, this initiative is about empowering people and fostering knowledge exchange. By introducing Finnish smart city innovations to Indonesia, the project supports workforce development, enhances local technical expertise, and contributes to Nusantara’s vision as a future-ready smart city.

“This is just the beginning. Through continued innovation, collaboration, and localized engagement, we are shaping the future of smart cities in Indonesia—one intelligent solution at a time.” – Mr. Huuskonen continues.
