McKinsey Global Institute, a global business and research agency, forecasts that Indonesia will be the 7th largest economy in the world by 2030. Further, Indonesia's economy will rise to fourth place by 2050, surpassing advanced economies such as Japan and Germany, according to Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC). To turn projections into reality, we need to have the ability to seize all opportunities that can provide economic benefits from various sectors, such as financial technology (Fintech), circular economy, bioenergy, tourism, disaster management, higher education, business, and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs), agriculture, and other industries.

The majority of the content in this book is based on academic research conducted by 25 authors from 5 countries, including several European Professors.
