BIC - Business Innovation Center Indonesia

BIC for “Indonesia Can!”

National Science and Technology has not been a significant contributor towards the National economic growth due to many factors. It still cannot be compared to well-developed countries, even to new emerging industrializing countries (US and the western countries as well as South Korea, China, India, Brazil, even Malaysia, our neighbor country). They already placed science and technology as the main driver for economic growth. The National Science and Technology Sector is not yet accounted as one of the compulsory topic in many discussions on economic growth of our beloved country.

It is with my great enthusiasm to witness the launching of the Business Innovation Center (BIC). The Leadership at the Ministry of Research & Technology had conceived the idea and strongly believed that Indonesia needs it.

I could not agree more!

I am pleased to know of the BIC initiative launched by the Ministry of Science and Technology. Having been associated at the brainstorming stages of this concept, I am personally delighted that it has taken off.
