"This is how the quadruple helix should always work."Tom Creemers (Municipel advisor)
Tom Creemers (Municipel advisor)
"In the near future I expect a lot of requests for new EV charging stations and antenna installation points from mobile network operators. This conflicts directly with our city’s ambition of decluttering the streets. To go from seven separate objects in the public space to just one, while honoring requests for new applications, is truly amazing. This is how the quadruple helix should always work."

"We consider NextPole a solid asset with a 40 year investment horizon."Amina Ziani (Asset manager)

"Making profitable long-term investments is especially hard when it comes to smart urban development. Nobody knows what innovations lie ahead. With NextPole we don’t have to bet on the most future proof systems. I can offer my clients the highest service level according to the current state of technology. When anything changes, we simply add or replace an application. We consider NextPole a solid asset with a 40 year investment horizon."
"The lowest total cost of ownership in an adaptive, future-ready solution."Vanessa Kalloe (tender writer)
Vanessa Kalloe (tender writer)
"As a tender coordinator I’m balancing out the lowest total cost of ownership with adaptive, future-ready solutions. A steel pole might not sound sexy, but it’s a lot more durable. This enables me to change configurations for the next 40 years, without ever replacing the NextPole. I love the natural feel of the wooden design. But hey, if these poles will grace our city all the way up until 2065, they better look good."
The NextPole.
