What Is BATIC?

BATIC — the Bali Annual Telkom International Conference — is the flagship international conference organised by Telin, the international subsidiary of Telkom Indonesia. The event is designed around the theme of uniting the global digital ecosystem to drive connected progress, bringing together telecommunications carriers, hyperscalers, digital platform operators, technology companies, enterprises, and industry leaders from Asia, Europe, the Americas, and beyond.

Held annually at the Bali International Convention Center (BICC) within The Westin Resort, Nusa Dua, BATIC provides a setting for structured sessions, one-on-one business meetings, networking, and knowledge exchange across the telecommunications and digital infrastructure sectors.

Telin, as the organiser, is the international business subsidiary of Telkom Indonesia. The conference reflects its role in connecting the Indonesian and Asia-Pacific telecommunications market with the global carrier and technology ecosystem.

Why the Event Matters

BATIC holds a distinctive place in the Asia-Pacific event calendar for telecommunications and digital infrastructure professionals. Unlike general technology trade shows, the conference focuses specifically on the connectivity, carrier, and digital ecosystem that supports cross-border communications, data traffic, and digital services across the region.

For carriers, wholesale operators, hyperscalers, and technology providers, the event offered concentrated access to industry decision-makers and discussions on the infrastructure and commercial relationships that shape how communications services are delivered across Asia-Pacific and internationally.

The 2026 programme included a dedicated ignitePRO track — an application-only forum for senior enterprise technology leaders such as CIOs, CTOs, and CDOs — focused on agentic AI, trust architecture, and cloud-native infrastructure strategy.
