Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. Chief Investment Officer of the Danantara sovereign wealth fund, said on Sunday (1/6/2025) that Danantara is the state’s effort to build and empower human capital in Indonesia.

“Danantara is essentially building an institution to support human capital development,” he said during a media briefing, as quoted by antaranews.com.

Pandu emphasized that while Indonesia has rich natural resources like nickel and coal, it needs skilled human resources to harness those assets for national benefit. Danantara focuses on bringing global partnerships, technology transfer, and knowledge to elevate local expertise.

“Our investment is in human capital, to help Indonesia move forward,” he explained. Danantara’s agenda includes key areas such as energy transition, industrial downstreaming, and artificial intelligence—each requiring capable human resources.
