Thanks to an integrated approach combining strategic consulting, IoT platforms, and digital infrastructure, the collaboration offers a scalable model for creating smarter, more sustainable, and more competitive buildings.
Milan, September 24, 2025 – Italtel, a multinational ICT company specializing in digital transformation operating in Europe and Latin America, JLL, a leader in professional services and investment management for the real estate sector, and Molex Connected Enterprise Solutions, an international player in connectivity technologies, sign a strategic partnership to accelerate the evolution of buildings towards the Smart Building model.
The goal is to combine technological innovation, sustainability, and real estate enhancement through an integrated approach that combines strategic consulting, IoT platforms, and digital infrastructure. This alliance, which involves three companies with an international presence in many countries, opens up new perspectives in a rapidly expanding and highly innovative sector.
There are three key elements to the partnership. An ecosystem-based approach which integrates real estate consulting, hardware technology, and software implementation, with a value proposition that covers the entire digital transformation chain for buildings; the focus on tangible ROI, which clearly shows how technological investment translates into certification upgrades and greater attractiveness for tenants; and the operational sustainability of the solution, which, through integration with existing infrastructure, avoids waste and maximizes return on investment.
The collaboration involves the adoption of intelligent systems such as Smart Light over PoE, environmental sensors, and smart plugs, which collect data on brightness, air quality, and energy consumption, integrating it into centralized monitoring platforms.
“A Smart Building project is not just about systems: it means rethinking the value of the property through a data-driven strategy that optimizes ESG performance and user experience. Positioning the asset on the market in line with ESG criteria is no longer optional, but essential to meet investor expectations and prepare for future regulations.”, comments Simona D’Oca, Head of Sustainability at JLL Italy.
“The ability to offer continuous monitoring IoT platforms allows us to manage the spaces we occupy in a simple and immediate way. Digital convergence allows us to guarantee, on the one hand, more efficient and sustainable spaces in an integrated way, with a reduced CO2 footprint, and, on the other hand, to achieve high levels of comfort and well-being for people”, says Alberto Biundo, Business Development Manager at Molex.
“This partnership is of strategic importance to us. Our mission is to design intelligent, secure, and sustainable networks, the true nervous system of the building. With partners such as Molex and JLL, Italtel brings innovation to life, offering end-to-end solutions that integrate IT infrastructure, networking, and consulting, leveraging existing investments.”, says Dario Giuseppe Lucatti, Chief Business Development Officer at Italtel.
With JLL’s real estate expertise, Molex’s technology, and Italtel’s integration skills, the partnership offers a scalable model for creating smarter, more sustainable, and globally competitive buildings.
