"We aim to integrate research through to the commercialization stage, ensuring that innovation does not stop in the laboratory. In addition, the government has provided research incentives of up to 300 percent for the industry to accelerate innovation reaching the market," said Dr. Laksana Tri Handoko, Chairman of BRIN.
He also underscored the benefits of university collaboration, allowing the country to harness its current research ecosystem without the cost and time of building new infrastructure.
A representative from the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) added that Indonesia must strengthen its capacity as a creator of artificial intelligence technologies, not just a user.
"AI plays a crucial role in national competitiveness. We encourage the development of AI products with strong differentiation based on local research. Several prototypes from universities and national research facilities are ready to enter the commercialization stage," they explained.
The Chairman of the Indonesian Internet Service Providers Association (APJII), Muhammad Arif, stated that digital infrastructure remains the main foundation of economic transformation.
"The expansion of 5G networks, broadband access to the 3T regions, and the strengthening of digital security must continue to be a priority so that the economic benefits of digitalization are felt evenly," said Muhammad Arif, Chairman of APJII.
The INTI EXPO, INARI EXPO, and IIXS series mark an important step for Indonesia in strengthening the ecosystem of innovation-based technology and digital talent. By uniting the government, industry, and research institutions, Indonesia is increasingly prepared to compete on the global stage through sustainable technological innovation and the enhancement of national capacity.
