JAKARTA - The adjustment of the MSCI index has again triggered dynamics in the Indonesian capital market. This time, investors' attention is focused on the shares of technology issuer PT Nanotech Indonesia Global Tbk (NANO), along with news that SoftBank Ventura Indonesia is preparing to take over the ownership of LDA Capital's shares.

If the corporate action is realized, SoftBank Ventura Indonesia is projected to control almost 10% of NANO's shares, while strengthening its position as a strategic investor in the national technology sector.

Market sources said this move was driven by Himawan Sutanto, the President Commissioner of SoftBank Ventura Indonesia, who was considered a key figure in the strategy to strengthen the shareholding.

This acquisition is not merely oriented towards short-term financial transactions, but is part of a long-term strategy for developing a technology ecosystem in Indonesia.

On the other hand, positive sentiment towards NANO is also strengthened by business synergies with PT Bhakti Agung Propertindo Tbk (BAPI).

The two companies have signed a cooperation agreement in the health technology and digital education sectors.

The collaboration includes the development of digital infrastructure, data center support, to the integration of technology services based on innovation.

Analysts assess that this synergy has the potential to become a catalyst for NANO's growth in the future, especially amid the increasing need for digitization in the health and education sectors.
