Indonesian digital telecommunications company Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, through its subsidiary, data communication, internet, and IT services group Lintasarta, has partnered with professional services company Accenture in a strategic collaboration to accelerate its sovereign AI cloud platform, aimed at propelling AI-driven digital transformation in Indonesia.
This initiative uses the Accenture AI Refinery platform to help Indonesian enterprises build cutting-edge AI solutions, tailored for various industry sectors, while ensuring sovereign data governance.
The collaboration will initially focus on AI solutions for Indonesia’s financial services sector, one of the key pillars of the country’s economy. Powered by the AI Refinery platform, Accenture will provide pre-built solutions that, it says, can significantly reduce time to value, with a modular architecture to meet client needs wherever they are in their AI journey. These solutions will enable Indonesian banks to harness AI, driving profitability, operational efficiency and sustainable growth in a highly competitive market.
This collaboration, say the partners, underscores Indosat’s larger purpose of empowering Indonesia, contributing to the nation’s digital transformation and technological sovereignty. By developing the country's first sovereign AI platform, Lintasarta and Accenture say they are working to unlock the potential of AI while upholding the critical tenets of data security, sovereignty, and innovation.
The Accenture AI Refinery, part of Accenture’s foundation model services, is described as representing a groundbreaking step in the use of generative AI (gen AI) for enterprises. It empowers organisations to convert AI technologies and tools into scaled, enterprise AI systems that reflect their unique business needs.
These custom AI systems can drive reinvention not only within individual companies but across entire industries, says Accenture.
