Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, Ooredoo Group, Nokia and Nvidia are collaborating to build a large-scale AI infrastructure platform in Indonesia, with a target of deploying 1GW of Nvidia DSX AI Factory capacity across Southeast Asia.
The platform, branded Zankore by Indosat, is intended to support growing demand for AI computing among enterprises, governments and AI developers, while positioning Indonesia as a regional hub for AI infrastructure.
Indosat will provide its existing digital infrastructure and market presence in Indonesia, while Ooredoo Group will act as lead investor and platform sponsor.
Nokia CEO Justin Hotard said AI infrastructure increasingly requires the integration of computing, connectivity and control across datacentres, AI factories and edge infrastructure.
The initiative comes as Southeast Asian countries seek to develop greater domestic and regional control over AI infrastructure and computing capacity.
