Sekuya and Gamecomm Indonesia are leaders in the Indonesian gaming industry, committed to promoting national culture and values through innovative gaming experiences. Their collaboration, supported by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Kemendikbudristek), is set to make a significant impact through the Gamecomm Indonesia Goes to School initiative. This program introduces gaming as an educational tool, aiming to enhance digital skills among students while fostering an appreciation for Indonesian cultural heritage. At INTI 2024, over 40 schools and more than 500 students from the Greater Jakarta area attended, eager to experience the latest in locally developed games. Gamecomm Indonesia, in collaboration with Sekuya, is aligning the curriculum of Vocational Education Units to support the government’s vision of improving the quality of human resources and boosting local game development.
