Indonesia’s second largest cellular operator, PT Indosat, is teaming up with the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) in mobile applications development in an attempt to encourage innovations in technology among youths and to produce new experts in the industry.
Indosat director and chief wholesale and infrastructure officer Fadzri Sentosa signed in Bandung on Saturday a memorandum of understanding on the new partnership with ITB deputy rector Hasanuddin Z. Abidin.
“This partnership will serve as a positive and effective collaboration in the development of mobile applications for the campus community and the young generation in general,” Fadzri said as quoted by Antara.
He added that the partnership was also expected to produce new experts in mobile technology.
As part of the partnership, an Indosat Innovation Lab will be built in the West Java capital.
“It will serve as a place where they (young innovators to-be) can experiment and have intensive discussions,” Fadzri said.
Hasanuddin, meanwhile, said the new partnership was ITB’s third with Indosat.
