Who Should Exhibit?

  • Developments in Batam’s Electronics And Semiconductor Manufacturing Hub
  • Tin processing plant dedicated to supplying raw material to Batam electronics makers in construction stages
    • A 100 billion rupiah (S$8.4 million) tin-processing plant is being built in Batam by the younger brother of Indonesian President-elect Prabowo Subianto, with the aim of supplying key raw materials to electronics makers based on the industrial island and in the region.
  • Apple to setup Airtag production factory in Batam to meet 65% of global demand
    • Tech giant Apple will open a facility in Batam by early 2026 to manufacture its AirTag tracking device, said an Indonesian minister.
    • Investment Minister Rosan Roeslani said the new facility will supply 65 per cent of what Apple needs to fulfil its global demand for the AirTag.
  • Indonesia projected to be a major semiconductor player with Batam leading the way
    • Indonesia is predicted to become a major player in the semiconductor industry, according to Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto. "The semiconductor ecosystem is expected to continue to be developed so it becomes the anchor of the economic engine. From the government, we will prepare the human resources," he informed.

      One of the main focuses of this development is the localization of semiconductor and sodium-ion battery production.

      This is expected to make Indonesia more attractive to global investors and prove that sodium-ion batteries--as a new alternative in the battery industry--can be successfully developed in Indonesia.
    • The development of the semiconductor and battery industry is expected to push up the number of workers and bring about significant economic growth in the Riau Islands.
