Indonesia Digital Transformation: A Strategic Investment

March 29, 2025

Indonesia’s geographic condition, comprising a vast archipelago, presents both challenges and opportunities for achieving digital inclusion. Despite having a population of over 270 million people, the national fixed broadband penetration rate was only 20 percent in 2022. This figure remains well below the ASEAN average, which reached 39 percent. In line with this development, the Indonesia Investment Authority (INA), as the manager of Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund, has emphasized digitalization and digital infrastructure as key focus areas.

‍

Efforts being made include investments in national and international fiber optic networks, data centers, telecommunications towers, and digital platforms. These initiatives aim to accelerate the development of digital infrastructure to meet the growing demand for digital services. This targeted investment is intended to enhance connectivity and digital services across Indonesia, supporting economic growth and technological advancement.
