Now that Startup Asia Tokyo is over, it’s time to take your attention to what’s brewing in Jakarta, Indonesia. Yes, it’s Startup Asia Jakarta 2014, to be held on November 26 to 27. And it’s a great reason for you to visit Indonesia and taste the durians!
It is our mission to help empower the tech startup ecosystem in Asia and in Indonesia. Startup Asia Jakarta aims to achieve just that by becoming the platform for all tech gurus to meet and learn. At the event, we will bring you our signature programs, all created in dedication to our love of Indonesia and Asia:
Startup Arena
This is our signature startup pitching competition. We are looking for early stage startups across Asia who are struggling, unknown, and not well-funded to join us. You will be pitching to hundreds of local and regional investors, corporate representatives, and our fellow esteemed journalists and bloggers. Register here for Arena.
Hackathon
This is a 24-hour hackathon held in Jakarta for our developer community. Developers can learn more about latest technology, spar with fellow developers, and win prizes. Register here for Hackathon. It’s free!
Bootstrap Alley

This is where startups exhibit and showcase their products and services to the thousands of attendees at the conference. And it is where investors and corporations with vested interest in the startup scene plow for gems. Not just for gaining interest from investors, you might also find the talent you need. All exhibitors can join our Hiring Day and meet students from the best universities in Jakarta, Depok, and Bandung. Register for a startup booth here.
Speed Dating
Evolving from the much loved Startup Investor Speed Dating program, this time we will help connect startups not only with investors, but also to potential partners like OEMs, telcos, and platforms, as well as tech media in the Speed Dating program.
Stay tuned for updates on participating partners!
