en.Wedoany.com Reported - The IEC Telecom Group is further expanding its operations in the Asia-Pacific region by establishing a dedicated local entity, PT IEC Telecom Indonesia, aimed at supporting Indonesia's growing demand for satellite connectivity and accelerating digital inclusion across the archipelago. The opening of the new office is the latest step in the company's long-term Asia-Pacific growth strategy, building on its customer base developed in Indonesia since 2024.

With a population of over 280 million spread across more than 17,000 islands, Indonesia faces significant connectivity challenges despite ongoing investments in digital infrastructure. Urban centers benefit from fiber optic and mobile networks, but many remote communities, plantations, offshore facilities, and maritime operations remain beyond the reach of traditional terrestrial networks. The proliferation of digitalization is driving demand for reliable, always-available connectivity services.

This initiative aligns with the Indonesian government's digital transformation agenda, including the Indonesia Digital Vision 2045 and the Golden Indonesia 2045 initiatives. PT IEC Telecom Indonesia aims to support projects that rely on reliable communication infrastructure, including the Universal Service Obligation (USO), which extends internet access to underserved and remote areas. The company also sees opportunities to support large-scale social initiatives, such as the Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program, which provides free nutritious meals to children at thousands of locations nationwide.

Antoine Veillon, CEO of the IEC Telecom Group, stated: "The Asia-Pacific region is one of our highest strategic priorities, and our growth in this region over the past two years has been remarkable. Establishing IEC Telecom in Indonesia is a natural next step, allowing us to serve this market with the depth and local presence it deserves."

Through its operations center based in Jakarta, IEC Telecom will provide managed satellite connectivity solutions tailored to industries such as energy, logistics, maritime, public services, and remote communities. The company's global expertise will be directly available within Indonesia, enabling customers to deploy integrated and future-proof connectivity ecosystems suited to Indonesia's rapidly evolving digital environment.

Jansen Harianja, Sales Director of PT IEC Telecom Indonesia, commented: "Digitalization is already one of the main drivers of Indonesia's economic development, and it is estimated that over the next two decades, the expansion of the digital economy could contribute up to 11% to the country's GDP. Once reliable connectivity reaches every corner of the nation, its impact will be further amplified, enabling more people, businesses, and communities to participate in the digital future. IEC Telecom has already built strong relationships and delivered solutions in this market. What is changing now is the operational level: with a dedicated local presence, full in-country capabilities, and the backing of a globally experienced team."

With its headquarters registered in Jakarta and an established network of local partners, PT IEC Telecom Indonesia is ready to support customers nationwide and contribute to digital transformation efforts in both urban and remote areas.
