CoreWeave has announced its expansion into Indonesia, marking the company’s first data center presence in the Asia-Pacific region, according to CoreWeave.

The expansion will add three new facilities totaling 360 megawatts of contracted IT power, with the sites expected to come online in 2028. CoreWeave will own and operate the compute environment across all three locations.

AI Cloud Capacity for Southeast Asia

The company said the expansion will bring its full AI cloud platform to labs, startups, and enterprise customers deploying workloads in Southeast Asia.

CoreWeave said demand for AI cloud services is accelerating outside its existing U.S. and European markets. Across Asia, enterprises, AI-native companies, and governments increasingly need AI compute located closer to their data and users because of latency-sensitive workloads and data-locality requirements.

“CoreWeave goes where we can bring AI pioneers the capacity, performance, and reliability they need to build and scale their ideas,” said Sachin Jain, chief operating officer, CoreWeave. “Indonesia is investing heavily in AI education and digital capacity, and it’s paying off — the country is becoming one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing destinations for global tech investment. Now, this expansion gives enterprises, AI-native companies, and governments more compute locally and globally, wherever they need it, to turn that into a competitive advantage.”

Why It Matters

CoreWeave said the investment supports Indonesia’s national priorities to strengthen digital infrastructure, expand domestic AI capability, and position the country as a leading regional digital economy.

In addition to the physical buildout, CoreWeave plans to build and train an on-the-ground team in Indonesia to operate the new facilities. The company said this will support local technical talent development as part of the expansion.
