🚀 AI Salon Launch: Jakarta Chapter
A Global AI Movement Begins in Indonesia
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of AI Salon Jakarta — the very first chapter in Indonesia of this cutting-edge global movement. This isn't just another AI event; it’s the beginning of something bigger. Join us as we bring together the sharpest minds shaping the future of AI, from startups to investors, engineers to policymakers — locally rooted, globally connected.
🌍 What is AI Salon?
AiSalon is a global community built by and for AI startup founders, developers, researchers, investors, and corporate partners. Active in nearly 50 cities worldwide, it serves as a launchpad for connections — helping startups meet the right investors, collaborators, and talent to grow.
From Berlin to San Francisco, Nairobi to Tokyo — and now Jakarta — AI Salon is where AI gets real.
This event is a joint collaboration with ERIA (Economic Research Institute for ASEAN & East Asia), which shared the same mission to drive AI innovation & community in Southeast Asia.

🧠 Panel Discussion: The Illusion of Progress — Can ASEAN Build Its Own AI Future?
AI is everywhere. But is it working for us? Or are we just chasing global hype?
In this provocative and high-context conversation, regional leaders from tech, government, investment, and startups tackle the tough questions:
Can ASEAN build meaningful AI with local data and regional values?
Are we creating solutions that matter, or replicating Silicon Valley noise?
