pioneering the first AI Experience Center in Indonesia. This initiative signifies a pivotal
moment in the evolution of our telecommunications industry. We are
confident that this experience center will catalyze further
innovation across sectors, and we stand ready to support its

Partnering with global technology leader Huawei, the Indosat AI
Experience Center showcases cutting-edge AI technologies applicable
to various sectors, including smart city management optimized by
its 5G network, arts, food & beverages, and other creative
industries. Beyond serving as a showcase for the latest AI
innovations, the AI Experience Center will also function as a
training hub, offering programs to students, public servants, and
the broader community on how AI can enhance productivity and create
new opportunities.
This hands-on experience is a precursor to the AI Center of
Excellence that Indosat plans to establish, which will be
powered by 5G technology and is set to be groundbreaking in the
near future. Indosat's commitment to catalyzing advanced technology
in Solo began in 2021 with the launch of its 5G service, followed
by the establishment of Solo Safari as the first 5G zoo in
Indonesia.
Guided by Indosat's overarching purpose of empowering
Indonesia, the AI Experience
Center is poised to be a catalyst for innovation, fostering the
development of AI-ready talent, and providing society with the

technological revolution, Indosat's AI Experience Center symbolizes
not just the dawn of a new era, but the beginning of a journey that
will see Indonesia rise as a
leader in AI. With this facility, Indosat is not merely investing
