Smart City Implementation in Boyolali Regency

In order to accelerate the development of smart cities in Indonesia, the government launched a program called "100 Smart Cities Movement". This program was implemented from 2017 to 2019 by guiding 100 selected cities/regencies in stages. In 2018 (2nd year), Boyolali Regency has become one of the regencies selected to receive technical guidance regarding smart cities. This research aims to identify and analyze the implementation of smart city in Boyolali Regency, especially the priority programs for each dimension. This research uses a qualitative descriptive analysis method using data in the form of in-depth interviews with key figures and documentation results. Boyolali Smart City has six priority programs, including: SIPAD, SIPP, SIMAPI, Indrokilo Botanical Garden, Si Teri Lapar, and i-Boyolali. Each of the priority programs has been running well and has had a positive impact on the community, especially the people of Boyolali Regency. However, in the implementation of the smart city programs there are still several obstacles and shortcomings, so evaluation and improvement is still needed so that the Boyolali smart city can be more optimal.
