MABU Concepts: Empowering Smart Cities and Saving Lives with IoT Monitoring on Datacake
In Luxembourg, MABU Concepts S.A. stands as a beacon of technological advancement. Founded by Steven Macedo in 2020, this forward-thinking company, alongside its IoT division Sensora, has revolutionized data collection and utilization. Through projects powered by Datacake, MABU Concepts has driven progress in smart cities, sustainability, and life-saving technologies.
Exploring New Possibilities
Steven Macedo’s journey began with an insatiable curiosity for understanding systems. Today, that passion fuels MABU Concepts’ mission to address challenges before they even arise. Guided by the motto, “We create solutions for problems that are not yet known,” Sensora has become a vital player in Luxembourg’s smart city initiatives, enhancing safety, efficiency, and connectivity.
Safeguarding Communities with IoT Water Monitoring
One of Sensora’s key projects involves deploying a nationwide IoT-based water monitoring network. Starting in Hesperange with a single sensor monitoring the Alzette River, the system has expanded to 20 stations across Luxembourg. Using LoRaWAN technology and Datacake’s platform, the system provides real-time water level data.
In May 2024, this system’s alerts helped authorities respond quickly to a late-night storm, preventing severe flood damage. Steven explains:
“Our platform is crucial for national security and evacuation decisions, which is why these initiatives receive government backing.”
Centralized IoT Management for Smarter Cities with Datacake
This centralized approach streamlines decision-making, enabling faster responses to emergencies and optimized resource management.
“They go to one domain, and they see everything. That’s the big plus,” Steven explains.
Innovative Solutions for Energy and Road Safety
MABU Concepts consistently pushes boundaries. Their custom-designed meteorological stations, installed on streetlights, measure road surface temperatures. This data allows municipalities to preemptively treat roads during icy conditions, ensuring safety and efficiency.

Their advancements in smart buildings further demonstrate IoT’s potential. By visualizing energy usage and integrating smart meters with Datacake, MABU Concepts has helped reduce energy waste and improve resource management. For example, a project employing 3D digital building twins provided actionable insights for heating system optimization.
Overcoming Barriers to IoT Adoption
Educating stakeholders about LoRaWAN’s capabilities was initially challenging, particularly when competing with traditional technologies. However, persistence and demonstrated reliability—even during power outages—secured trust in their solutions.
“The biggest challenge was explaining LoRaWAN’s unique frequency modulation benefits,” Steven recalls.
