AI North Star Strategy Drives Transformation into AI-Native Telco

Indosat continues to advance its AI North Star ambition, positioning itself as a global reference point in artificial intelligence adoption within the telecommunications sector.

The transformation focuses on becoming an AI-native telco by embedding artificial intelligence across core operations. This includes delivering hyper-personalized customer experiences, improving productivity, and optimizing capital efficiency.

According to the Company, this approach is already strengthening customer engagement and is expected to support sustained double-digit growth.

Expansion into AI TechCo and Development of Sovereign AI Ecosystem

Beyond connectivity services, Indosat is expanding into an AI TechCo model, targeting new growth areas in sovereign AI, cloud services, and cybersecurity.

The Company stated that key capabilities are already in place, allowing it to move into a scaling phase for AI-led services across consumer and enterprise segments.
