At a Siemens’ flagship event today, the Smart Infra-ConneX brings together more than 200 key stakeholders from regulators and public and private enterprises. Prominent speakers and presenters from the Indonesian government and stateowned enterprises, international financing and export credit institutions, and Siemens technology experts took the stage to discuss green growth infrastructure for Indonesia and how smart technology can pave the way towards meeting net-zero targets. The Siemens Industry Hubs are featuring smart technology solutions to transform six critical industries like Power, Urban, Transport, Data Center, Pulp and Paper, and Metals and Mining.
“Technology is the lever and digitalization are the key enabler for transition to smart infrastructure. Smart infrastructure is efficient and sustainable infrastructure”, stated Dr. Lamine Jendoubi, President Director and CEO of PT Siemens Indonesia. Siemens technology is enabling customers in their transition to become more efficient, resilient, and smarter which will eventually help them to transform the everyday for the 270 million people in Indonesia.
