JAKARTA, Investortrust.id — Indonesia is set to become a regional hub for cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing with the launch of Asia’s first Quantum AI Data Center, backed by a Rp 6 trillion, or around $400 million, investment from Silicon Valley-based Worldvuer iByond Limited.
The project, located in the Tunas Prima Industrial Estate in Batam, Riau Islands, is part of the Indonesian government’s strategy to drive digital economic growth and aligns with President Prabowo Subianto’s vision to achieve 8% economic expansion by 2045.
The investment agreement was formalized last week in Jakarta between Worldvuer iByond and industrial park operator Tunas Prima, witnessed by Deputy Minister of Investment and Downstreaming Todotua Pasaribu and Her Highness Princess Anne Shek, Chair of the Asia Advisory Board at Worldvuer iByond.
“President Prabowo aims to reach 8% growth toward Golden Indonesia 2045. The digital economy—particularly data centers—will be a key pillar,” Todotua said in a statement issued by the Investment Ministry on Monday. “Indonesia has extraordinary potential in this sector, and we are ready to be a key partner in building Asia’s digital future.”
Green Infrastructure and Global Tech Integration
The data center will be built in an eco-industrial zone powered by renewable energy, including solar panels and an on-site water treatment facility. Tunas Prima has previously attracted major global investors, including Apple for iPhone and AirTag production.
Worldvuer iByond is the developer of Vovea iByond Operating System, a platform that integrates quantum computing, AI, and big data analytics to deliver performance far beyond that of conventional data centers. Indonesia will be the first Asian base for this technology, which has previously been deployed in Silicon Valley and the Middle East.
Expanding to Energy and Telecommunications
Beyond data infrastructure, Worldvuer iByond is exploring collaboration in energy—mirroring its partnership with Aramco in Saudi Arabia—as well as in telecommunications with state-owned Telkom Group and the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs.
To attract such high-quality investments, the Indonesian government is offering a suite of incentives under the Job Creation Law and Online Single Submission (OSS) system. These include tax holidays, super tax deductions for R&D and workforce development, and import duty exemptions on equipment.
“We’ve simplified regulations and designed fiscal tools to support top-tier investments like this one,” said Todotua, who also serves as Vice President Commissioner at PT Pertamina.
As a follow-up, Worldvuer iByond plans to submit a formal proposal for incentives along with supporting documentation to the Investment Ministry. The company is also considering partnerships in education and mining, particularly to support a gold-based microchip supply chain.
