This paper attempts to explain how technological convergence has occurred in Indonesianchemical firms. Viewed from the sectoral innovation system, the enabling factors ofbiobased chemical products innovation are the availability of scientist and researcher atuniversity and research collaboration in company. The ways forward to promotetechnological convergence in Indonesian biobased chemical firms are to enhance its internaland external R&D capacity by supporting chemical firms to interact with public R&D anduniversity. To enable the biobased chemical sector to take the opportunities to grow throughtechnological convergence, the Indonesian government policy should (i) provide strongsupport for research, development, and commercialisation of innovative biobased products,and incentives for pioneering the commercial production and (ii) facilitate the biobasedchemical value chains to develop by supporting biobased chemical investment, theadvocation of using biobased chemical products in society, and limiting of using petroleumbasedchemical products in the market.
