Netmore Group, a network operator and platform provider for Massive IoT, has announced that Flashnet, a Lucy Group company and provider of intelligent street lighting solutions, has joined Netmore’s Pulse Partner Program. The partnership marks another milestone in Netmore’s growing ecosystem, combining connectivity with smart infrastructure solutions to accelerate the digital transformation of cities and utilities around the world.
Driven by rapid urbanisation, government sustainability mandates, and the accelerating rollout of smart city programmes worldwide, smart street lighting is increasingly recognised as the entry point for smart city transformation and one of the fastest-growing segments of the global IoT infrastructure market. As municipalities and utilities continue to modernise critical infrastructure, this partnership provides a scalable and reliable framework for implementing intelligent street lighting systems that reduce energy consumption, optimise maintenance operations, and improve public safety, all with a clear and rapid return on investment. At the same time, it establishes an interoperable digital foundation upon which municipalities can build broader smart city applications, extending far beyond lighting and supporting the next generation of smart city services, innovation, and long-term urban digital transformation.
As a Pulse Program member, Flashnet gains access to Netmore’s technical enablement services, partner management and operations support, and co-marketing programmes. Together, the companies will jointly pursue go-to-market initiatives focused on customer education, regional business development, and migration support for cities, utilities, and solution providers seeking to modernise existing street lighting infrastructure.
Alexandru Buzatu, the CCO at Flashnet, said: “Joining the Netmore Pulse Partner Program gives us access to one of the world’s most extensive carrier-grade LoRaWAN networks and a partner who shares our commitment to delivering real, lasting value for cities and utilities. By combining inteliLIGHT’s intelligence with Netmore’s connectivity infrastructure, we can offer customers a faster, lower-risk path to smart street lighting and a foundation they can build on as their smart city ambitions grow. We’re excited about what we can achieve together.”
With more than two decades of experience developing IoT-based smart city technologies, Flashnet has focused on innovation in smart street lighting. In 2015, the company introduced the world’s first LoRaWAN street lighting controller, helping accelerate the adoption of large-scale connected lighting networks and paving the way for a new generation of smart city infrastructure. Its inteliLIGHT platform currently manages more than 1.5 million connected streetlights worldwide, deployed in over 150 cities across more than 60 countries on six continents, delivering lamp-level control, real-time monitoring, adaptive lighting, predictive maintenance, and advanced analytics that help customers improve operational efficiency while supporting sustainability objectives. Landmark projects include Washington D.C. (USA), Brussels (Belgium), Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), Athens (Greece), Reykjavik (Iceland) and many others.
Frederik Oliver, the VP growth at Netmore, added: “Having Flashnet join the Pulse Program is a strong signal of the smart lighting market continuing to move towards open, interoperable solutions that deliver measurable outcomes for municipalities and utilities. Together, we’re making it significantly easier for cities around the world to modernise their lighting infrastructure and use it as a springboard for broader smart city ambitions. The inteliLIGHT platform is exactly the kind of proven, scalable technology our programme is built to support.”
The addition of Flashnet further expands the Netmore Pulse Partner Program, an ecosystem of technology providers committed to delivering interoperable, standards-based IoT solutions over carrier-grade LoRaWAN networks. By bringing together connectivity, devices, applications, and implementation expertise, the programme helps customers accelerate digital transformation while reducing deployment risk and simplifying procurement, helping municipalities avoid vendor lock-in while building future-ready urban infrastructure.
