Abstract

The implementation of the Smart City concept in Indonesia is growing, focusing on the use of information and communication technology to improve the efficiency of public services and the quality of life of urban communities. Positive trends can be seen from the various projects that have been launched in major cities such as Jakarta, Surabaya, and Bandung, as well as government support and private sector involvement. However, Smart City development in Indonesia still faces a number of challenges such as the digital divide, uneven infrastructure, and regulations that are not yet fully supportive. Nevertheless, the opportunity to scale up Smart City implementation remains great, especially with multi-stakeholder collaboration and increased public awareness. By overcoming these challenges, Indonesia has the potential to successfully transform its cities into more efficient, safe and sustainable Smart Cities.
