Indonesia is making a bold move, leaving behind the congested, environmentally strained Jakarta as the capital city for a fresh start in the east coast of Kalimantan (Borneo) island. Named Nusantara, which means ‘archipelago’, the project aims to be a sustainable, smart city. Construction began in 2022, prioritizing green spaces and renewable energy, aiming for inauguration during Indonesia's Independence Day on August 17th, 2024, marking a symbolic new chapter for the nation. From contributing expertise in sustainable infrastructure up to pioneering smart city solutions, this project present sizeable business opportunities for Swiss companies.
