Jakarta, INTI - The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) is accelerating across industries, transforming the way organizations operate, innovate, and compete in the digital economy. However, successful AI implementation depends on far more than advanced computing power. It also requires robust digital infrastructure, cybersecurity, high-speed connectivity, skilled talent, and a collaborative ecosystem capable of supporting sustainable innovation.
Recognizing these opportunities and challenges, Lintasarta has reinforced its commitment to advancing Indonesia’s national AI ecosystem through a new strategic approach known as Beyond AI Factory. The initiative is designed to deliver integrated AI solutions across the entire value chain, from infrastructure and platforms to security and application development. The strategy also reflects the company’s ambition to strengthen Indonesia’s position as a key player in the Asia-Pacific AI industry.
AI Emerges as a Key Driver of Digital Growth
“AI is no longer merely a supporting technology. It has become one of the primary drivers of business transformation and digital economic growth,” said Hariyadi Ramelan during the international TMT Finance APAC 2026 forum.
Speaking in a session titled “What’s the Real Investment Case for AI Data Center Models?”, Hariyadi highlighted that AI is increasingly shaping business competitiveness and accelerating digital transformation across sectors. He emphasized that the development of AI must be supported by strong infrastructure, collaborative ecosystems, and sustainable strategies capable of creating long-term value.
According to Hariyadi, customer requirements are becoming increasingly complex as organizations seek not only AI computing capabilities but also cloud services, high-speed connectivity, cybersecurity protection, and ecosystem support that can accelerate AI deployment across their operations.
Beyond AI Factory Strategy to Accelerate AI Adoption
To address these evolving demands, Lintasarta has expanded its role beyond being solely an AI infrastructure provider. Through the Beyond AI Factory strategy, the company aims to deliver a fully integrated AI ecosystem that enables customers to access the infrastructure, platforms, security capabilities, and partnerships needed to accelerate their AI transformation journey.
As the AI Factory partner of the Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison Group, Lintasarta has built its ecosystem around four strategic pillars: connectivity, cloud, cybersecurity, and collaboration through AI application solutions. This approach allows businesses to access end-to-end AI services within a unified environment, covering everything from connectivity and computing resources to security and application development.
Supporting Sovereign AI and Developing Local Talent
Beyond infrastructure investment, Lintasarta is also focused on strengthening Indonesia’s AI ecosystem through the development of sovereign AI capabilities. The company believes that building national AI capacity is essential for ensuring technological independence and long-term competitiveness in the digital economy.
One of its key initiatives is AI Merdeka, a program designed to improve AI literacy, develop digital talent, and foster collaboration with global partners to accelerate AI adoption across the country. The initiative comes as demand for AI-skilled professionals continues to rise alongside rapid digital transformation in multiple industries.
By combining infrastructure development, ecosystem collaboration, and talent cultivation, Lintasarta is positioning itself to play a central role in Indonesia’s AI future. The company’s Beyond AI Factory strategy reflects a broader vision in which AI success is driven not only by technology, but also by the strength of the infrastructure, partnerships, and human capital that support it.
Conclusion
As AI adoption accelerates across industries, the success of digital transformation will depend on more than computing power alone. Through its Beyond AI Factory strategy, Lintasarta is combining AI infrastructure, cybersecurity, connectivity, cloud services, and talent development to build a stronger national AI ecosystem. The initiative is expected to support Indonesia’s ambition to become a leading AI-driven digital economy in the Asia-Pacific region.
