Southeast Asia’s tech story has always been more than just code
Behind every product that scales is a network of builders, engineers, and leaders who trade ideas, swap tools, and challenge each other to push the limits.
That’s the spirit behind Builders Happy Hour, an exclusive networking event built for developers, engineers, and tech leaders to connect beyond the code. Co-organized by Tech in Asia and Infobip Startup Tribe, it’s a space to exchange insights, build meaningful relationships, and explore opportunities that drive real growth in Southeast Asia’s tech scene.

Happening in Jakarta on October 22 as part of Tech in Asia Conference 2025, Builders Happy Hour is designed to help you develop the kind of relationships that accelerate ideas and spark collaborations. Plus, attendees will get a sneak peek at the upcoming SHIFT KL 2025 – a premier global developer conference making its Asia stopover in Kuala Lumpur this November.

Attendance is open to all developers and tech leaders with a conference pass. Pro Pass holders will enjoy priority access, while General Pass holders can unlock the same priority access by upgrading their tickets!
We’re keeping the event small to focus on quality and engagement. RSVP now to be part of a curated circle where Southeast Asia’s next big products begin.
