Planet Idea Launches In India To Redefine Smart Living
Planet Idea, an international smart solutions advisory company, has just launched in India with the purpose of transforming and redefining community living in the country. The company’s unique proposition which entails the integration of smart solutions, a district app and community management services into residential projects has already been implemented in Europe and South America with great success. A partnership between Planet Smart City, the global leader in smart affordable housing, and the family office of the promoters of Kolte-Patil Developers Ltd, one of India’s leading real estate groups, Planet Idea India provides a perfect blend of international experience and local understanding to transform smart living in urban India. As the country experiences rapid urbanisation and is recognised as a centre for technological advancement, the company’s innovative services aim to improve quality of life for residents and foster communities by providing technological and environmentally sustainable solutions, as well as digital services and social innovation programmes. The first project in the country is underway and it is set to provide smart solutions to over 5,000 homes at a 390 acre iconic township in Pune, Life Republic.
