What does Indonesia’s startup landscape look like now? (#StartupAsia preview)

How much do you think you really know about Indonesia’s startup landscape? Looking at how fast the ecosystem grew, you may need to recheck your notes.
In the past year, we have seen numerous funds made available for the country’s startups. Indonesia has gone through some changes inside its government, too. It claims public data is more transparent and it’s easier to set up a company there. Several Indonesian startups have also acquired since January.

At Startup Asia Jakarta, we will bring you one of the best-connected guys in the archipelago: Andy Zain (pictured above). Concurrently, he is the director of Jakarta Founder Institute, managing director of Mountain SEA Ventures, board member of microblogging company Migme, chairman of MobileMonday Indonesia, and board member of payment gateway Mimopay.
In short, Zain knows the country’s startup landscape very well, both from an entrepreneur’s and investor’s point of view. He will kickstart Startup Asia Jakarta 2014 with a keynote session on the latest tech trends in Indonesia. This includes general tech data and stats, info about current VC players in the country, and the challenges faced when operating a business in Indonesia.
