As a speaker at the Bloomberg CEO Forum 2024, I am honored to share my insights on the critical importance of technological development for Indonesia’s future. In today’s forum, I emphasized that technology is a key pillar that we must continually advance to keep Indonesia competitive on the global stage. The rapid evolution of digital solutions requires countries like Indonesia to stay agile and forward-thinking in their technological strategies.
The discussion focused on the growing impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI), highlighting that AI is no longer a choice but a necessity. Indonesia must accelerate its innovation efforts to remain competitive in the global digital economy. AI development should be one of our national priorities as it presents vast opportunities to drive economic growth and social progress.
By embracing AI and other technological advancements, Indonesia can unlock its full potential in the digital era. Strategic investments in AI will not only help improve various sectors but also position the country as a leader in Southeast Asia’s technology landscape. As we move forward, collaboration between the private sector, government, and academia is essential to ensure sustained progress in Indonesia’s technological development.
By fostering a robust environment for technological innovation, particularly in AI, Indonesia can secure a sustainable and prosperous future. The journey towards becoming a global leader in technology requires continued dedication, strategic investments, and a shared vision among all stakeholders. As we push forward, it’s crucial to remain adaptable and open to collaboration across industries and borders. Only through these efforts will Indonesia truly harness the full potential of the digital age and solidify its position as a key player on the global stage.
