LIC Sustainable Solutions is a multinational enterprise with offices in Europe and Latin America. The company develops, designs, produces, and executes energy efficiency projects, primarily focusing on smart cities and intelligent street lighting.
LIC is supplying LED luminaires for a public lighting modernization project in Sincelejo, Colombia.
This is LIC's ninth Goparity campaign, and the goal is to raise 350.000€ to supply the companies hired by the municipality to install and maintain public lighting. The contractual agreement includes 7,500 LED luminaire units. Approximately 2,500 units will be delivered in this first phase, with an estimated retail value of $750.000$.
The promotor first successfully raised 500.000€ in Smart City Lighting I and II, for a similar project in the municipality of Villavicencio, where 6.000+ LED luminaires were successfully installed improving the quality of lighting of a large part of this municipality.
LIC then raised 1.425.000€ in five Goparity campaigns (Smart City Lighting III, IV, V, VI, VII, and VIII) to fund a similar project in Cali, supplying sustainable and efficient LED street lighting luminaires to replace the old, polluting, and inefficient sodium system. The project included the installation of 21.000 smart LED luminaires.
The luminaires are ready to be integrated into a smart city, working as a wireless communication base. In the last three years, the company supplied more than 20,000 luminaires to different municipalities in Colombia.

Capital at risk - investing involves the risk of losing part or all of the money you invest. Although Goparity implements risk-mitigation measures, to further reduce the risk of capital loss, please remember to diversify your portfolio to limit your exposure to specific projects. Learn more about risk mitigation here.
The payment plan for this project may take longer than usual to start: Following Goparity's risk mitigation procedures, once the project is successfully funded the guarantee contracts will have to be signed in a notary. The process may take from one week to up to six weeks, depending on local procedures. To protect your investment, only after the guarantees have been officiated will the funds be made available to the Promoter, and your loan agreement and payment plan will start.
