About Us
Our Story
PGT was born from the realization that the world’s future is fragile unless we create new trust-based platforms where public, private, and philanthropic actors can align. Indonesia is not chosen by accident—it is chosen because it represents:
​
-
A fast-growing democracy with 270 million people.
-
A middle-income economy projected to be the world’s 7th largest by 2030 (PwC).
-
A nation balancing abundance and fragility, making it a real-time laboratory for global solutions.
PGT was created as a neutral, enduring, and independent trust—a platform that outlives political cycles and provides long-term certainty for global partners. It is built on a history of convening leaders, investing in human capital, and fostering innovation across sectors.
