Four Telkom technologies to strengthen digital independence
During a visit to the TelkomGroup booth, Telkom IT and Digital Director Kharim I. G. Siregar and Strategic Business Development and Portfolio Director Seno Soemadji introduced the four capabilities that form part of the Sovereign Digital Technology ecosystem.
The four technologies are designed to complement one another in building an integrated national digital ecosystem.
