Collaboration is the Heart of Innovation
At aQuademy, we believe that solving the world’s water challenges requires more than technology — it requires partnerships built on shared purpose.
As the innovation division of PT Inovasi Kemandirian Air Nusantara (PT IKAN), we actively collaborate with research institutions, government agencies, private sectors, and local communities to drive renewable desalination and sustainable water access across Indonesia and beyond.
Our partnerships unite engineers, scientists, and change-makers under one mission: to deliver clean, affordable, and zero-carbon water solutions that empower island and coastal communities.
Why Partnerships Matter
Water scarcity is a global problem, but the solutions must be local, inclusive, and collaborative.
Through strong partnerships, we can:
- Accelerate innovation by combining diverse expertise in engineering, marine science, and renewable energy.
- Ensure sustainability through shared resources, transparent research, and community-led initiatives.
- Scale solutions from local pilots to global models of water independence.
By aligning with both international innovators and local stakeholders, aQuademy bridges the gap between research and real-world implementation.
Strategic Collaborations and Global Recognition
aQuademy’s work has gained international recognition through its participation in the XPRIZE Water Scarcity Competition, supported by the Mohamed bin Zayed Water Initiative (MBZWI).
This global partnership has opened opportunities for cross-border cooperation with universities, engineers, and environmental experts focused on renewable water technologies.
Our Key Collaborations Include:
- Global Research Partners: Collaborations with institutions in the United States, Germany, and China, including leading universities such as MIT and Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
- Local Government and NGOs: Joint efforts with Jakarta Provincial Government and environmental organizations to test and deploy pilot projects in Kepulauan Seribu (Thousand Islands).
- Marine and Energy Experts: Partnership with specialists in water treatment, solar energy, and ocean sustainability to optimize the aQuaSolis platform.
Together, these partnerships ensure that our technology remains scientifically validated, socially inclusive, and environmentally restorative.
Community as Our Core Partner
Beyond formal alliances, aQuademy works directly with local communities to build capacity and ownership.
Through education, training, and participatory programs, we empower residents to operate and maintain their own desalination systems — ensuring long-term sustainability.
We believe that communities should not just receive solutions — they should help build them.
This collaborative model transforms innovation into shared progress, creating water systems that people truly own and sustain.
Partnerships that Drive Impact
Every aQuademy partnership contributes to measurable outcomes:
- Environmental Impact: Reduced energy use and elimination of marine pollution from brine discharge.
- Social Impact: Local job creation and skill development in renewable technology.
- Economic Impact: Lower water production costs and reduced dependence on imported water or fossil fuels.
These results demonstrate how strategic cooperation can transform technological vision into tangible progress — one community at a time.
Join Our Global Network of Change-Makers
As we continue developing the aQuaSolis Submersible Desalination Platform, we welcome new collaborations with:
- Research institutions seeking sustainable water innovation.
- Investors and donors passionate about clean technology and social impact.
- Governments and NGOs aiming to expand renewable water access.
Together, we can accelerate a global shift toward water independence — clean water that’s powered by the sun, sustained by communities, and protected by innovation.
A Shared Future Through Collaboration
At aQuademy, partnership is not just a strategy — it’s the foundation of our mission.
By working hand in hand with scientists, policymakers, and communities, we’re proving that the future of desalination is renewable, inclusive, and restorative.
Every collaboration brings us closer to a world where no one is left without water, and every drop contributes to a sustainable planet.
