The industrial revolution 5.0 is imminent. With rapid changes over the digital world, traditional businesses need to digitalize or die.

Indonesia expanded its digital economy value at USD 44 billions in 2020 and targets to grow eight times higher by 2030. But despite its huge expansion and superior ambition, its digital economy faces discrepancies across access, human resources and applications.

World Bank’s data said 49% of Indonesia’s total adult population still do not have access to the internet. In 2020, a total of 73.7% of the population had internet access but 55.7% contributed by Java-the most populated island.

LEAP for Your Life!

With the global battle against Covid-19 pandemic, the digitization in all aspects of life has been accelerated. Via the digital platforms, the one living in a rural area can easily catch up with someone on the other side of the earth.

All is possible in today’s borderless world, and LEAP is here to help. For business owners, it is significant to find the right partner for collaborating and growing further; and above all, for making a painless transformation. And here is how LEAP can leap your life:

1. Collaborating with the best provider of end-to-end and flawless solution

   Internet data connection is the key to hold the world in the palm of your hand. Indonesia’s internet speed was still the lowest in Southeast Asia with only 22.83 Mbps by the end of 2021. It seems troublesome, but Telkom brings a new experience via myIndihome. Through a collaboration with myIndiHome, you will find an upgraded experience via its end-to-end and flawless solutions in one application, with just a click away.

2. Choosing the precise `old but new` platform with unique goals

   Digitization is the key to accelerate SMEs growth. By 2024, Indonesia's government targets 30 millions SMEs to go digital from only 13.5 million by mid-2021. However, among those businesses with access to digital platforms, there are only 23% locally produced goods. The competition with imported products remains high, so local SMEs must find the precise platform dedicated to a specific audience, like the state-owned companies. Padi UMKM answers these challenges and opens the door for local SMEs growth.

3. Harvesting your agricultural business through a digital ecosystem

   Since the colonial era, Indonesia has developed as an agrarian country. In 2021, the agricultural sector is still one of the main pillars of the GDP with rice as its main commodity through 55.27 tonnes of milled dry grain products. Since 2019, Telkom has been building an innovation to support the agriculture sector’s enhancement. All stakeholders need to collaborate and Agree is here as a solution to disrupt the barriers for the growth of the agricultural sector.

4. Presenting business insight via an End-toEnd big data solutions
   

   Data is still the new gold, and so is yours! The Deloitte report said, by 2030, data collection and analysis will become the basis of all future services offerings and business models. Data analysis can help small businesses change how they promote their products, engage with clients, manage finances, and overall, grow your business further. It is valuable to analyze your data with BigBox, so you can make a wise decision for further expansion.

5. Elevating your business over a single digital touch point
   

   The Covid-19 pandemic has increased demand for more adoption and integration of digital technology, but there are still barriers in adopting technology. According to a Forbes survey, only 23% of SMEs were able to dedicate resources to new digital tools although 97% of global companies have accelerated adoption of technology to get through the pandemic. Therefore, MySooltan comes as a single digital touch point for SMEs to adopt technology in a quick and easy way into business operations.

6. Transforming your business through IoT
   

   In the digital era, around 43.2% of global businesses are expected to reduce their workforce due to technology, including the Internet of Things (IoT). It sounds like a disaster, but this means growing your business through IoT is required. That is why Telkom launched Antares, an end-to-end IoT solutions provider, to support your business transformation via its two solutions namely the IoT platform and the IoT connectivity.

7. Never ending learning process via digital platform

   The world keeps changing, so you better not stop learning, mainly when education is accessible via digital platforms. In 2020, the global e-learning market size surpassed USD 250 billion and could grow at over 21% CAGR between 2021 and 2027. In the midst of this rapid growth, Pijar Mahir comes as an integrated digital learning platform, with its easy access for students, job seekers or professionals to improve their skills. This platform also aims to connect learners, training institutions, and the job portal.

8. Spreading your logistics coverage with an integrated platform
   

   With 17,000 islands across the country and high growth of the e-commerce industry, Indonesia has a special need for logistics. The country’s freight and logistics market is expected to grow by 10.27% of CAGR throughout 2020 to 2025, but the logistic sector is still fragmented. Through its three services: transportation, distribution and control tower, LOGEE is determined to drive a more efficient and productive logistics process. It is all easy, efficient, and paperless. By the end of the day, it will also help you in managing data and information from the whole supply chain process.
