Strengthening Digital Cities through Namo Author Donations

 

APEKSI, together with ARASOFT and KOTRA Surabaya, held an online Coordination Meeting (Rakor) for the Namo Author Donation on October 9, 2025. This online coordination meeting was a follow-up to the Communication and Digital Forum (Komdigi), the Indonesia-Korea Smart City Forum, and the MoU between APEKSI and ARASOFT at the 7th APEKSI National Conference (Munas) in 2025 in Surabaya.

 

The main focus of this donation is the Namo Author application, a powerful software for creating interactive multimedia e-books based on the EPUB 3.0 standard. Each APEKSI member city government will receive a donation of one free Namo Author license for one year’s use. This application is expected to become a strategic tool for city governments to produce and disseminate information, publications, and educational materials in a more modern and engaging way.
