KEK Digital: An Accelerator for Digital Economic Transformation

With a vision for Indonesia’s Golden Economy by 2045, the Indonesian government prioritizes digital transformation, focusing on the development of Special Economic Zones (KEK) Digital. These zones are pivotal for accelerating technology-based economic transformations, especially across regions beyond Java. By the third quarter of 2025, KEK achieved Rp314 trillion in investments and created 217,000 jobs. An example of these flourishing centers is KEK Nongsa in Batam, hosting international-scale data centers. The move towards a digital economy is not just about innovation, but forming new economic centers with sustainable growth.
