Bali, InfoPublik - Creative Economy Agency (Bekraf) gathered startup talents in Bali Digital Movement to develop ecosystem in Bali, Saturday (8/27).
Bekraf’s deputy for infrastructure Hari Santosa Sungkari said the event served as a forum for Indonesian digital application and game developers to gather and encourage more decoders in digital field.
It was a medium to exchange knowledge and generate quality talents for Indonesian digital market. "Through Bali Digital Movement, we want to create a pool of talents. It is also a part of the Backup program in building Indonesian Startup ecosystem," he said.
Bekraf cannot provide funds, but can influence policy by cooperating with the Financial Services Authority (OJK) to bring venture capital. Mr. Sungkari said the talents can directly consult with experienced digital startup mentors. "Hopefully, the talents can eventually build startup companies," he said.
In addition to mentor consultation, talents could share ideas with other fellow startup talents. Startups who have been trained and are deemed to have sufficient quality will be assisted to register to Intellectual Property Rights (HAKI). He also hoped all startups would dedicate their efforts to the country by becoming entrepreneurs and reliable programmers in Bali. (Translator: Wilda Stiana)
