SHANGHAI and HONG KONG, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mekar Ecosystem, an integrated platform connecting finance, technology and real-sector opportunities in Indonesia, is accelerating its regional expansion following two significant milestones: the recognition of PT Mekar Investama Teknologi by Forbes China in Shanghai and the signing of a strategic Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) partnership with Future Fuel Limited in Hong Kong.
On September 10, PT Mekar Investama Teknologi, Indonesia’s leading impact lender and the flagship company within the Mekar Ecosystem, was presented with the New-Edge Family Office Service Provider award at the 2025 Forbes China New-Edge Family Office Selection event held at W Shanghai – The Bund.
This recognition underscores Mekar’s growing role as a strategic partner to family offices and institutional investors, helping channel capital into high-impact opportunities across Indonesia’s productive sectors. Through these partnerships, Mekar is expanding access to investment opportunities while supporting businesses and industries that contribute to Indonesia’s long-term economic development.
Over the past 16 years, Mekar has evolved alongside Indonesia’s rapidly changing economy—from a fintech financing platform into a diversified ecosystem spanning financial services, digital technology, agriculture, trade financing and sustainable energy. Today, the ecosystem brings together businesses, investors and strategic partners across these sectors, creating new opportunities for collaboration and enabling Mekar to participate in the development of Indonesia’s next generation of growth industries.
“We are deeply honored to receive the New-Edge Family Office Service Provider award from Forbes China. This distinction reflects Mekar’s 16-year journey connecting capital with real economic opportunities, as well as our continued commitment to creating meaningful and sustainable impact.
We view this as an important step in building broader partnerships with investors and strategic partners across the region. As the financial landscape continues to evolve, we believe the future of finance will be increasingly connected to real assets, sustainability and measurable impact,” said Leonard Lee, Chief Commercial Officer of PT Mekar Investama Teknologi.
