National Technology Uprising Day, also known as National Technology Awakening Day, is observed in Indonesia every August 10. This holiday commemorates the first flight of the IPTN N-250, an aircraft developed by the Indonesian aerospace company IPTN, which later became Indonesian Aerospace. The IPTN N-250, a regional commuter turboprop aircraft, made its inaugural flight on August 10, 1995, marking a significant milestone in Indonesia's aerospace industry despite the program being canceled due to the 1997 Asian financial crisis. The day is celebrated with tech conferences that highlight achievements in science and technology, emphasizing the importance of innovation in the country. Although Indonesia is not among the leading nations in science and technology, it has notable accomplishments, including being one of the few developing countries with its own aerospace industry.
