The Bootcamp Accelerator for Mayor Offices (BAMO) program provided virtual reality and digital skills training to 81 participants from 31 Indonesian city governments over 10 hours of sessions. The training covered topics like smart city planning, design, policy innovation, and digital tools from organizations like the World Bank, World Economic Forum, and Urbanetic. Selected cities will showcase their smart city projects and receive support through partnerships like the G20 Global Smart Cities Alliance. Participant surveys found that the virtual reality elements improved understanding of concepts, networking experiences, and confidence in applying digital technologies to their city projects. The program identified 7 potential city projects across 4 cities for further collaboration and support.

SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT
With the technology partnership of virtual reality system brand HTC VIVE
and strategic funding by the family office Tsangs Group and Indonesia
Creative Cities Network (ICCN), Good City Foundation launches the
Bootcamp Accelerator for Mayor Offices (the “BAMO”) to empower the
public sectors with stronger policy and governance capacity and future
technological skills in smart city design and planning.
Endorsed by the World Bank IFC, the BAMO program has recruited up to
81 participants from over 31 city governments in Indonesia to conduct
over 10 hours of urban planning and development training (planning,
design and policy innovation) with consultants from the World Bank IFC
(EDGE Team Indonesia), the World Economic Forum (IoT and Urban
Transformation), Indonesia Creative Cities Network and Singapore-based
digital twin company, Urbanetic. The BAMO program is strategically
positioned with the ICCN as part of Indonesia's national development goal
on the 2nd wave of digitalisation in the country.

Selection of Smart City Plannings In Indonesia
With the BAMO program being conducted in a hybrid environment of Zoom and
HTC VIVE through application ENGAGE (with the provision of locally manufactured
VR Headsets), the urban planners would be incubated with the latest digital twin
modeling tool and energy and carbon emission optimisation platform with the
global standard of smart city governance and planning management. Equipped
urban planners and the other participants would be continued following up with
their submitted smart city government project through Smart City Working Group
pipelines in the IoT and Urban Transformation of the World Economic Forum with
the outputs of ESG benchmarking assessment and digital twin modeling.
Selected city(s) and their smart city plannings in Indonesia, upon the evaluation of
the BAMO program, would be invited to conduct demonstrations in the Planning for
Good Cities Roadshow session during the 6th Annual Conference of Future City
Summit, in partnership with the G20 Global Smart Cities Alliance (GSCA). The
nominated city(s) would be invited to the Alliance for further smart city governance
policy incubation and implementation, as a global case study in the World
Economic Forum.

This experimental phase is also where we are able to
identify points of improvement and requirements for
this method to work better. It is such a great pleasure
for Indonesia Creative Cities Network (ICCN) to
collaborate with Good City Foundation (GCF) in BAMO.
We are looking forward to exploring more possibilities
of joint projects towards our common goals and hopes
for liveable and resilient future cities.
Involving many stakeholders from different places
through VR is a brilliant idea to break the usual
silence in conventional video conference meetings, it
helps us to accidentally bounce to other participants
which forces us to communicate and engage like in
the offline meeting, where usually these kinds of
scenarios give the most effective networking.

BAMO provides a
great opportunity
for us to experience
a different way of
communicating and
idea sharing, using
high-end technology
and devices.
It was very helpful to understand smart city
governance with future technological skills
better. Also, this training helped me to
connect with other inspiring stakeholders
and identify clear, do-able next steps
toward resolving my own workplace issues.
Thank you!

BAMO is a new
experience on how the
government can seek
opportunities on policy
through interactive
digital platforms which
is a much needed skill in
the modern world.
Bamo is a program that accelerates our innovation this
program also helps us to get to know the digital
innovations we make, test their feasibility, and ensure the
collaboration that will occur for urban development. The
best part is that bamo brings us to adapt to the metaverse
! then driving our innovation can go that far. I hope that
the connections and chemistry of the entire committee
and participants at Bamo that have been established can
develop more sustainably.

I got a lot of information, knowledge, and experience
