About Us
Yayasan Elevasi Teknologi Indonesia (YETI) A Hacktiv8 Indonesia Initiative
We're on a mission to democratize tech education and create equal opportunities for all Indonesians to thrive in the digital economy.
Empowering Communities for Change
At YETI, we believe that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. We exist to bridge that gap, bringing world class tech education to Indonesians who have been locked out by geography, economics, or circumstance. Through accessible programs, proven curriculum, and partnerships rooted in impact, we're building pathways from potential to prosperity across every corner of Indonesia.
Who We Help
We serve the dreamers and doers who have talent but lack access: students in remote provinces, youth from low-income families, women breaking into tech, and communities left behind by Indonesia's digital boom.
Our Approach
We don't just teach technology, we transform lives. Every program is designed with one goal: equipping learners with the skills, confidence, and network to thrive in the digital economy.

A World Where Communities Thrive Together
We're building an Indonesia where your zip code doesn't determine your potential. Where a student in Papua has the same access to tech careers as someone in Jakarta. Where families break cycles of limited opportunity through a single scholarship. Where entire communities rise together as digital literacy spreads.
Empowerment
True empowerment goes beyond job placement. It's about giving individuals the tools to shape their own futures, support their families, inspire their communities, and contribute to Indonesia's growing digital economy. When we equip one person with tech skills, we create a ripple effect that transforms entire networks.
Sustainability
Impact that lasts requires building ecosystems, not just running programs. We work with local communities, partner institutions, and employers to create sustainable pathways that continue long after training ends. Our graduates become mentors, role models, and change-makers, ensuring the movement grows organically from within.
Together We Make a Difference in Our Community
Impact isn't measured in programs delivered, it's measured in lives changed. Every statistic here represents someone who now earns more, dreams bigger, and creates ripples of change in their community. Your support makes every number grow.
Together With These Organisations, We Go Further
The Principles That Guide Our Work in the Community
Every program we build, every partnership we form, every learner we support, all guided by six core principles that ensure our impact is meaningful, measurable, and lasting. This is how we transform lives and communities.
Expanding Access
Removing financial and geographic barriers through scholarships, community programs, and partnerships that bring tech education to underserved populations nationwide.
Transparency
Providing detailed impact reporting, regular updates, and clear metrics so partners always know exactly where their investment creates change.
Building Capabiliity
Delivering practical, job-ready training that combines technical skills with professional development, preparing learners for real careers, not just certificates.
Fostering Collaboration
Building powerful partnerships with corporations, foundations, government, and communities. Because sustainable impact requires working together, not alone.
Creating Pathway
Connecting graduates with employment opportunities through our industry network, career support, and hiring partnerships that ensure learning leads to earning.
Inclusivity
Focusing on those most often excluded: women, 3T region youth, older learners, and remote communities, designing programs that meet diverse needs with dignity.
Real Stories From Real People Making Change Happen
When I joined Hacktiv8's scholarship program with ZakatLoop, everything changed. Through structured training and mentorship, I learned programming and built real projects.
The result? Shortly after graduating, I secured a tech job that dramatically increased my family's income and brought stability I never imagined possible.
I never thought someone like me could work in tech. This program didn't just teach me to code, it changed my family's entire future.
I hope this class inspires them to keep learning, stay updated with new technologies like AI, and continue exploring the world of programming. With their exposure to IBM’s AI tools and practical workflows, they now have a solid foundation to think creatively, build smarter solutions, and face future tech challenges.
I believe this will be a strong first step that empowers them to innovate and contribute to the future of technology.
This scholarship transformed me, giving me hope, skills, and the mindset to grow in tech. I used to feel like I couldn’t give anything back to my parents, but graduating from this bootcamp changed that. Now I can work, support my family, and offer them something they’ve always deserved.
This experience has become a turning point in my life and motivates me to keep learning and building a better future.I gained a lot from the Student Developer Initiative training. It broadened my perspective, and the material was very relevant to both the latest AI developments and what we’re learning in our faculty.
I also learned that IBM provides AI tools that make programming, especially coding much easier.I believe the challenges in today’s AI era are already clear. We can’t just focus on implementing AI in our programming; we also need to understand how to use the technology effectively.
It’s not only about applying AI, but also about how it can actively support us in writing code. This is a real advantage of IBM’s tools, allowing us to make the most of AI in our work.
Together, we can create change
This isn't charity, it's investing in Indonesia's largest untapped economic resource. Each graduate becomes a ripple, inspiring siblings, mentoring neighbors, proving that change is possible. This is just the beginning of the Indonesia we're building together.
