“Although the streaming platform is primarily being utilised an add-on service for mobile customers through a monthly fee, it will also be available to Indosat’s business partners as a licensed platform for immediately offering premium content to their own users.”
Could the above statement be referring to eg. Nexmedia, who would be classed as a business customer?
Nexmedia are also Broadcasters of the upcoming Asian Games 2018

Pay-TV provider NexMedia has teamed up with telecommunications operator Indosat Ooredoo to announce a new package with a high-speed internet connection in response to rising demand and the increasing digitalization of entertainment.
The NexSat combo was launched by the two companies in an effort to provide home internet customers with an easy bundling of Indosat Ooredoo’s 4G Plus internet network.
The Nexmedia bundle will be offered at a rate of Rp 190,000 (US$14.25) per month, connecting Indosat home users with NexMedia’s premium TV channels. With the bundle, customers will also receive an Indosat Ooredoo Business package of 20GB in the 4G plus network and 6GB in the 3G/4G network.
Indosat Ooredoo’s director and chief of wholesale and enterprise, Herfini Haryono, said Indosat bundle would be especially useful for corporations.
“The synergy between the two companies is also part of Indosat’s master vision of becoming a leading digital provider, by providing on-demand entertainment options to a customer base that is used to the conveniences of high-speed,” Herfini said at the unveiling event on Tuesday.
Herfini also elaborated on the status of Indosat’s data center construction in Surabaya and Batam, saying the Surabaya center would likely be commercially operational by the end of the year, while the Batam center would launch operations at the end of next year, because of the longer investment processes.
