Telkom Indonesia Launches OONA, Indibox, GameQoo and OOLEAN


Telekom Indonesia (AKA Telkom), has just launched four cutting-edge digital entertainment platforms: OONA, Indibox, GameQoo and OOLEAN. These were announced at this week's 2019 Telkom Digisummit: “Embracing Digital Entertainment for Digital Indonesia."


Telkom Indonesia Chooses OONA TV for its New IndiBOX

Telcom has announced that it is directly managing the development of OONA Indonesia, while the latter is supporting Telkom Indonesia to achieve its digital TV ambitions. Further, Telkom has picked OONA TV as its main partner in the launch of its exciting new TV Box service, IndiBOX.


This means that Telkom consumers can watch hundreds of OONA TV's top local and international channels using their free data packages on their mobile devices via Telkom's Maxstream video package. Originally, this advanced entertainment application was targeted at five million families from the 18 million who already receive broadband. Now, they will all be offered Indibox combo packages which incorporate free OONA TV packages and Telkom's fast internet.


This will give OONA users a brilliant non-stop first-class entertainment service. Moreover, they will receive loyalty rewards in the form of OONA TV virtual currency (tcoins), just for watching the shows they love, sharing content, and interacting with personalized ads. These tcoins can be redeemed for a broad range of branded products and services, as well as various telcom products.


These new developments put OONA and Telkom Indonesia firmly at the forefront of the region's digital entertainment industry. Further, it empowers OONA and Telkom so that they are in a position to offer the latest tech for AVOD, TVOD, and MSVOD services, which can be enjoyed by countless millions.

Digital strategist and AI expert, Christophe Hochart, the founder and CEO of OONA Global, said he is very confident that this new management will guarantee OONA Indonesia's success. Hochart remarked: “Look out for further developments and advanced innovations including super unique features and extraordinary content from TV channels and local and international studios.”

OOLEAN & GameQoo

OOLEAN is the service which Telkom is using to develop Indonesia's gaming industry, and GameQoo, which supports cloud technology, is an on-demand gaming platform. Speaking at the Telkom Digisummit, Jody Hernady, the SVP of Media & Digital Business & EGM Digital Services Division at Telkom, stated that the company wants: “to create international standard games that compete at world level. The target is that in the next three years we will have games that can be played globally.”

Hernady, noted that: at the present time, the primary issue is the fact that there are not many domestic gaming companies within Indonesia. In addition, more innovative talent is needed, along with stronger investment. To that end, Telkom has pledged to invest more funding into the local gaming industry through its cooperation with leading developers. The telcom giant is now in the process of producing: a management system for users, a gaming hub, analytics, and back-end API services for games.
