Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indosat and NVIDIA Open Indonesia’s First University AI Center to Develop Local AI Talent
The Yogyakarta center runs on NVIDIA's full-stack AI platform and Indosat's GPU Merdeka sovereign GPU-as-a-service, with initial projects in healthcare, agriculture, and disaster response.
- Three initial projects: eNose-TB breath-based TB screening, SmartAgri precision farming, and Tech4Disaster geospatial AI for disaster response.
- Established under Indonesia's AI Center of Excellence initiative, connecting government, industry, and academia.
- Researchers and students get access to NVIDIA Nemotron open models, development frameworks, and technical mentorship.
- Indonesia records over 1 million new TB cases annually; eNose-TB aims to screen without specialists or expensive labs.
Indonesian researchers and students now have enterprise-grade compute and AI tools to develop local solutions for national priorities like TB detection, agriculture, and disaster response.
