Marina Budiman has become the only woman listed among Indonesia’s 10 richest people in Forbes data dated July 14, 2026. Her net worth reached US$5.7 billion as of July 16, 2026, placing her eighth in Indonesia and 727th globally.
Her wealth is closely tied to the expansion of data center infrastructure through PT DCI Indonesia Tbk, listed as DCII. Marina is the company’s co-founder and President Commissioner, with a 22.51 percent shareholding.
That stake makes her the second-largest shareholder in DCII after Otto Toto Sugiri. Otto, her longtime business partner, is one place ahead of Marina in Indonesia’s wealth ranking.
A business built around digital infrastructure
DCI Indonesia was established in 2011 by Marina Budiman, Otto Toto Sugiri, and Han Arming Hanafia. The company operates data center facilities in Cibitung, Karawang, and Jakarta.
DCII is described as Southeast Asia’s first Tier-IV data center. The classification underlines the company’s role in providing infrastructure for the growing need to store and process digital data.

| Company | PT DCI Indonesia Tbk (DCII) |
| Established | 2011 |

DCII shares were listed on the stock exchange in 2021 at an initial offering price of Rp 420 per share. The stock value subsequently rose far above that starting price, reflecting market confidence in the outlook for data center services.
As digital services expand, demand has also grown for data storage, processing, and supporting infrastructure. This shift has made the data center business a central pillar of Marina’s wealth.
Long partnership with Otto Toto Sugiri
Otto Toto Sugiri is often referred to as Indonesia’s “Bill Gates.” His business relationship with Marina stretches back decades and began before the founding of DCI Indonesia.
The two first met while Marina was working at Bank Bali. She began her professional career there in 1985 after studying economics and finance at the University of Toronto.
Marina was born in 1961 and later moved into the technology industry. In 1989, she joined the information technology company Sigma Cipta Caraka, gaining experience before entering the internet services business.
Before DCII, there was Indonet
In 1994, Marina and Otto founded Indonet, which is known as Indonesia’s first internet service provider. Their work in internet services preceded their later move into data center infrastructure.
The pair sold their shareholdings in Indonet in 2023. The transaction marked an important chapter in their long business journey across Indonesia’s technology sector.
Marina’s path from banking and information technology to internet services and data centers illustrates the evolution of her business career. Her position at DCI Indonesia has placed her at the center of an industry whose infrastructure has become increasingly important to digital activity.
