Metrodata Solution Day 2025: Two Decades of Innovation Building an Ethical and Sustainable AI Ecosystem

This year, MSD carries the theme: The Rise of Agentic AI: Balancing Innovation with Security and Governance

Jakarta, August 20, 2025 — PT Metrodata Electronics Tbk (“Metrodata”) officially held Metrodata Solution Day (“MSD”) 2025 at Shangri-La Jakarta, marking 20 years of the company’s consistent commitment to providing a collaborative platform for industry leaders, regulators, and technology practitioners to advance cross-sector digital transformation in Indonesia.

This year, MSD carries the theme:
The Rise of Agentic AI: Balancing Innovation with Security and Governance which highlights the shifting role of AI, from passive systems that present information to active entities capable of making decisions and executing actions autonomously.

This transformation opens significant opportunities for efficiency and scalability across sectors. Yet, it also raises a critical question, how do we ensure AI operates within the principles of responsibility, transparency, and security?

MSD 2025 serves as a strategic platform to address this challenge by facilitating cross-stakeholder discussions to develop ethical, adaptive, and nationally relevant approaches to AI governance.

Today, AI has evolved into an active operational partner, capable of responding to dynamic conditions, formulating actions, and adjusting decisions in real-time. The technology has already been implemented across various sectors, from smarter logistics to responsive risk mitigation systems.

"The use of AI should be grounded in integrity, responsibility, and long-term commitment to delivering positive and sustainable impact.
Metrodata Solution Day is designed as a strategic forum to broaden understanding, not only of the technology itself, but also of the governance frameworks that reinforce long-term trust and relevance,” stated Susanto Djaja, President Director of PT Metrodata Electronics Tbk.

Amid the growing autonomy of digital systems, Metrodata underscores the importance of a collective, cross-sector commitment to ensure technology development remains aligned with human values and national interests.

MSD 2025 is not merely a showcase of innovation, it is a stage for unifying perspectives, shaping best practices, and directing AI to serve as a force that strengthens the economic and social foundations of Indonesia.

“We’ve entered the era of Frontier Firms, where humans and AI collaborate in real time to solve problems in entirely new ways. At Microsoft, we believe AI agents combined with human ambition can unlock transformative impact for organizations. But with this evolution comes a new class of risks, including data exposure, AI-driven threats, and growing regulatory complexity. With the launch of our AI-ready, hyperscale Indonesia Central cloud region, we are embedding security and governance at the core to ensure innovation happens with control and confidence. There is no better time than now to make AI truly work for every person and every organization in Indonesia, helping us unlock new opportunities and achieve more,” said Dharma Simorangkir, President Director of Microsoft Indonesia.

“At Red Hat, we continue to focus on driving open source values in the era of AI. As AI systems particularly agentic AI, become more autonomous and widespread, Red Hat, along with our partners, remains committed to accelerating AI development and deployment. Our ongoing collaboration with Metrodata enables us to deliver value to customers as they adopt AI capabilities across any model, accelerator, or cloud. We look forward to collaborating and empowering businesses to more confidently deploy AI solutions across Indonesia.”said Vony Tjiu, Country Manager, Indonesia, Red Hat

Fanly Tanto, Country Director, Indonesia, Google Cloud, said: “Agentic AI offers vast, transformative potential. We're seeing this firsthand through our Indonesia BerdAIa program, where organizations are already effectively deploying AI agents to unlock significant productivity gains and create new economic value. What sets Google Cloud apart? We don't just provide industry-leading AI models like Gemini; Vertex AI, our open-source compatible, end-to-end AI development platform, provides unique capabilities like grounding, safety and content filters, and explainability to help organizations operationalize safe, responsible, and enterprise-grade AI. Together with Metrodata, we look forward to helping more Indonesian organizations innovate with control and confidence, to unlock tangible value from agentic AI and deliver real results.”

“AI agents have moved beyond mere experimentation – they now deliver automation, efficiency, and tangible business outcomes. We are seeing companies running hundreds of models in production, all demanding highly accurate and well-managed data to achieve better results. In 2025, AI agents will take center stage, building momentum from generative AI but with an even greater operational impact. Cloudera enables this transformation through a robust Enterprise AI ecosystem, helping global organizations design secure, scalable, and integrated AI workflows that turn data into action.” said Sherlie Karnidta, Country Manager, Cloudera Indonesia.

"Large language models are powerful, but are fundamentally unreliable for enterprise use. Agentic AI still requires real-time, contextual, trusted data and that’s where Confluent comes in. Our partnership with Metrodata can help ease AI adoption challenges due to skills gaps, fragmented data ownership, and data quality and governance issues. Confluent delivers a complete data streaming platform that customers can rely on to stream, connect, process, and govern their data continuously in real-time. With a robust AI governance framework and technical infrastructure, our partnership can help advance businesses’ and the nation’s digitalization initiatives, contributing to Indonesia's goal of becoming a leading digital economy in Southeast Asia,” said Jemmy Ang, Regional Director, Confluent Indonesia.

"The launch of our new data center in Indonesia marks more than just an infrastructure milestone—it reinforces Anaplan’s long-term commitment to empowering Indonesian enterprises with secure, locally hosted planning technology. As organizations face increasing complexity and transformation, we're proud to bring our advanced AI-driven scenario planning and analytics capabilities even closer to them. This expansion is part of our $500 million investment in platform innovation, including advancements in agentic AI—designed to help businesses not only respond to change but anticipate it. With this, we’re enabling our customers in Indonesia to make faster, smarter decisions and achieve greater agility in an ever-evolving market landscape." said Astri Anindita, Regional Vice President, Indonesia, Anaplan.

“In the era of agentic AI, speed and context are everything, and having the right foundation is the key to success. SingleStore is that foundation, delivering the right data in real time so AI can think, act, and create business impact instantly.” said Christin Nataly, Enterprise Sales Director, APAC, SingleStore

"Agentic AI is reshaping how organizations make decisions, and it brings both opportunity and responsibility. But for AI to truly make a difference, it must be built on trust. People need to be confident that the technology will serve them, and that’s why embedding governance, security, and human values into every layer of adoption cannot be an afterthought. Our One HP strategy is designed to do just that; helping businesses take a unified and secure approach to AI, connecting people, data, and operations from chip to cloud." as stated by Juliana Cen, Managing Director, HP Indonesia
