Jakarta,18th June 2026 — As intelligent systems rapidly transition from corporate experimentation into core operational infrastructure, a critical question faces the nation’s business elite: who will control the infrastructure behind Indonesia’s projected $10.9 billion AI expansion? The window for enterprises to secure market dominance before national digital policies lock into place is closing fast.
To address this massive technological shift, global deal facilitator firm Trescon has announced it will host the 47th global edition of theWorld AI Show in Jakarta (proudly co-located with Finance 2045) on 7–8 July 2026. Running under the central theme of “Architecting Indonesia’s Sovereign & Scalable AI Future,” this high-stakes summit serves as a premier collaborative platform to move automation from isolated pilots into large-scale commercial production.

The upcoming summit has secured exceptional institutional endorsement, bridging the gap between state regulatory frameworks and private sector execution. The event is officially supported by Strategic Government Partners, including the Ministry of Industry | Startup For Industry (SFI) and the Ministry of Creative Economy, alongside key industry bodies AISII and KORIKA.

AI is rapidly becoming a strategic enabler for Indonesia’s economic growth, public service transformation, and digital sovereignty. With strong momentum across sectors, AI has the potential to significantly boost productivity, inclusion, and innovation. However, this acceleration must be balanced with robust governance, particularly in areas of data protection, cybersecurity, and ethical AI deployment. Indonesia’s regulatory landscape, including the Personal Data Protection Law, provides an important foundation, but operationalizing responsible AI at scale remains a key challenge. Moving forward, success will depend on aligning investment, talent development, and governance frameworks to ensure AI is deployed securely, ethically, and in a way that builds long-term public trust.– Eryk Pratama Vice Chairman of Standing Committee for AI and PDP Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN)
AI is rapidly transforming Indonesia’s digital economy by enabling businesses to scale faster, make smarter decisions, and deliver more personalized customer experiences. From improving logistics and travel platforms to advancing financial inclusion and public services, AI is becoming a key driver of productivity and innovation. As adoption grows, the focus must shift toward responsible AI, ensuring data governance, talent development, and ethical use, so Indonesia can fully realize its potential as a leading AI-powered economy in Southeast Asia. – Dr. Irvan Bastian Arief VP of Technology GRAND, Data and AI tiket.com
Rather than focusing on theoretical future concepts, the journalistic agenda targets immediate, real-world integration bottlenecks, computing infrastructure readiness, and inference cost optimization. The strategic dialogue will flow across four critical thematic pillars: AI Infrastructure & Data Foundations, Generative AI & Automation, Responsible & Trusted AI Ecosystems, and Intelligent Industries & Smart Infrastructure.
This strategic alignment is further strengthened by a coalition of global technology leaders and enterprise innovators who are actively funding the next phase of digital growth.
