In September 2024, President Jokowi will launch three big digital products initiated by the Indonesia Investment Authority (INA). The three initiatives are expected to improve Indonesia's digital economy development and technological infrastructure. It is a strategic move to strengthen the digital ecosystem in this country for better competitiveness in the global world.

Among the products to be launched, one of them is INA Digital Infrastructure Fund, or DIF. DIF itself is an investment fund that invests in digital infrastructure development, including data centers and internet networks. This will make Indonesia, particularly those areas which are at a disadvantage in the field of connectivity, become more connected. As quoted by Detik, DIF is expected to speed up technology development and digitalization, thus closing the gap in the digital divide between urban and rural areas. The fund will also be utilized for projects to improve internet infrastructure in remote areas.

The second product being launched is the INA Digital Innovation Hub, or DIH. It shall serve as an innovation hub and incubation point for technology startups and digital businesses. According to Jakarta Post, this would provide opportunity for facilities, funding, and mentorship for new companies dealing with technology solutions. The DIH foresees encouraging a lot of growth in Indonesia's startup ecosystem by way of employment and bringing in new innovative solutions for many technological problems.

The third is the INA Digital Transformation Program, which would support sectors involving digital transformation in education, health, and government. DTP, according to Antara News, would finance and grant resources for projects that deal with digital technology to improve efficiency and increase accessibility of public services. It would likely renew public services for improvement in the quality of service to be experienced by Indonesian citizens.

This is all part of Indonesia's larger strategy to fortify its position as a leading driver of the digital economy in Southeast Asia. It was through such initiatives that he sought to develop digital economic growth through better technological infrastructure and enhancement in the quality of life for Indonesian citizens.
