KONST Signs Data Center Collaboration Agreement with SM+ Data Centers and LG Sinar Mas for SMX01, Expanding Its Compute Footprint into Southeast Asia
Taiwan-based AI infrastructure company KONST today signed a collaboration agreement with SM+ Data Centers and LG Sinar Mas (LGSM) for SMX01 at a signing ceremony held in Taipei. The agreement was signed by Ben Chang, Chairman and Co-Founder of KONST, together with Herson Suindah, President Director & Group CEO of SM+ Holdings, and Ariawan, COO of LG Sinar Mas (LGSM). Through this partnership, KONST will secure next-generation liquid-cooled, high-density data center capacity, establishing a Southeast Asian foothold for its GPU cloud service and enterprise compute solutions — a key milestone marking KONST’s first compute deployment beyond Taiwan.
SMX01 is SM+'s AI-ready and connectivity-rich data center facility located in Jakarta's Central Business District. The project is a collaboration between SM+ Data Centers and LGSM to deliver secure, scalable infrastructure designed to support the growth of the digital economy in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Building on SMX01's AI-ready infrastructure, KONST will deploy its three-tier portfolio spanning GPU infrastructure, Neo Cloud, and AI applications, leveraging the facility's support for the high power density and liquid cooling to meet the fast-growing demand for AI compute across Southeast Asia.
The Jakarta site also brings together a comprehensive partner ecosystem: GPU servers are provided by GIGABYTE, while GPU cluster deployment and operations are managed by Raydian Cloud, an AI infrastructure services provider with an established presence across Southeast Asia — combining the expertise of all parties to ensure service quality for high-density GPU clusters from build-out through operations.
Ben Chang, Chairman and Co-Founder of KONST, said: "Southeast Asia is one of the fastest-growing markets for AI compute, and Indonesia sits at its center. Partnering with SM+ and LGSM at SMX01 formally extends KONST's capabilities into the region — allowing us to support our customers' AI ambitions closer to where they operate, with the high-density, liquid-cooled infrastructure that next-generation AI demands."
Herson Suindah, President Director & Group CEO of SM+ Holdings, said: "This collaboration with KONST marks an important milestone for SM+ in advancing AI infrastructure in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Through SMX01, developed in collaboration with LGSM, we are delivering the secure, scalable, and AI-ready digital infrastructure required to support the next generation of AI computing. As demand for high-performance AI infrastructure continues to accelerate, collaborations such as this reinforce Indonesia's growing role as a strategic hub for AI innovation and digital infrastructure investment across the region."
Ariawan, COO of LGSM, said: "As SMX01 moves closer to its operational launch, establishing strategic partnerships with industry leaders like KONST is essential to delivering on our promise of a world-class, AI-ready data center. By combining LGSM's design, build, and operational expertise with KONST's proven capabilities, we are reinforcing our commitment to setting the standard for reliability and excellence in Indonesia's digital infrastructure landscape."
Marcus Cheng, Founder & CEO of Raydian Cloud, said: "High-density GPU clusters demand a different operating discipline from traditional data center workloads — from build-out and commissioning through to Day 2 operations. We are pleased to support KONST, SM+ and LGSM at SMX01, and to bring our regional delivery capability to a deployment that sets a new benchmark for AI infrastructure in Indonesia."
Since its founding, KONST has focused on AI infrastructure, with businesses spanning GPU data center construction, GPU cloud services, and Bare Metal server leasing, and opened its corporate headquarters in Nangang, Taipei earlier this year. The partnership with SM+ Data Centers and LGSM will allow KONST to leverage compute resources across both its Taiwan and Jakarta sites, offering customers in Taiwan, Japan, Southeast Asia, and across Asia more flexible deployment options from raw compute to platform services.
Coinciding with the signing, KONST is also exhibiting at Ai4 2026 (August 4–6, The Venetian, Las Vegas) — North America's largest applied-AI conference — at Booth 403, showcasing its GPU cloud and AI infrastructure services to more than 12,000 industry leaders, as the company advances its Southeast Asia and North America expansion in parallel.
