Deputy for Dissemination and Media Affairs at the Presidential Communication Office (PCO), Noudhy Valdryno, highlighted President Prabowo Subianto’s dedication to enhancing the role of Indonesian scientists globally. President Prabowo aims for closer cooperation between Indonesian researchers and international scientists to pave the way for Indonesia’s development as a developed nation. He encourages scientists to actively engage with the public, recognizing their crucial role in achieving the administration’s goal of 8 percent economic growth in the next five years.

With the theme “Science and Technology for Economic Growth and Equity,” KSTI 2025 serves as a collaborative forum to accelerate Indonesia’s transition into a high-value-added industrial economy. The event has attracted over 2,000 scientists nationwide, showcasing its strategic significance in driving scientific progress and economic development.
