In the event, APJII stated that he was committed to continuing to build and strengthen the digital economy in Indonesia. This commitment is demonstrated through APJII's efforts to continue to encourage the expansion of network infrastructure to more regions in Indonesia.

According to Arif, the expansion of the network is the key to increasing the reach of Internet connections for the community. The more people are covered by Internet connections, the better the acceleration of the digital economy in the country.

As a form of support for accelerating the digital economy, APJII will hold the 2023 Internet Expo and Summit (IIXS) which will be held in August 2023.

"At the age of our 27th, I see that APJII is getting more solid with the spirit and commitment to support digital economic development in Indonesia, because Internet access is getting wider, including the increasing number of Internet users, is the key to accelerating the digital economy, including the creative economy in our country," Arif concluded.
