SURGE Expands into Telecommunications Central Facility Construction

Shareholders approved the addition of Construction of Telecommunications Central Facilities, classified under KBLI 42206, to SURGE's business activities.

Following approval of the amendment to the Articles of Association by the Minister of Law and updates to the company's business licensing, SURGE will be able to undertake telecommunications central facility construction directly.

The company plans to offer these services to business-to-business (B2B) customers that require network development across multiple locations, including commercial, residential, industrial, educational, governmental, and public areas.

The new business activity will complement SURGE's existing fiber-optic network and fixed broadband access operations, which are conducted through its subsidiaries.

SURGE Maintains Focus on FTTH and FWA Network Expansion

The appointment of leaders from the company's existing Board of Commissioners and Board of Directors is intended to maintain strategic continuity, including the ongoing expansion of its fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and fixed wireless access (FWA) networks.

According to the company, the leadership changes are expected to reinforce its business strategy, strengthen corporate oversight and management, and support decisions that respond more effectively to industry developments and opportunities.

SURGE aims to strengthen its role as a connectivity layer through its fiber-optic network and fixed broadband access for households. The company stated that this infrastructure supports the growth of Indonesia's digital economy and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI).
