internet users in China, India and Indonesia will have pulled far ahead of the other developing Asian countries, driven in large part by their huge populations. Indonesia\'s mobile-first dynamic mean that usage habits differ from its two larger cousins, both of which are more PC-oriented. Looking into the future, there is a strong case for the internet sector in Indonesia growing at a compounded 25% rate for the next TWO decades.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">As many internet users as Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and the Philippines <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">combined</span></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For a crystal clear example of the way Indonesia will dominate the ASEAN region in the coming years, take a look at the forecasts for the internet user base in 2015. With 125 million users, Indonesia will have as many people using the internet as the next four largest ASEAN countries combined.</p>\r\n<img class=\"size-full wp-image-1497 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - Regional internet penetration chart 5\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-Regional-internet-penetration-chart-5.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"592\" />\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While penetration will lag Malaysia (with its higher GDP per capita) and Vietnam (with strong government IT policies and a much easier geography to connect to the internet), it will significantly exceed both Thailand and the Philippines. Indonesia also, by the way, is on course to have a higher internet penetration level than China.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Different usage habits, different access methods</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Two things are notable in an analysis of regional usage habits - Indonesians access the web via their mobile phones much more than those in other countries, and they spend less time online per week.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1027 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Analysis - Regional hours online and mobile access charts\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Analysis-Regional-hours-online-and-mobile-access-charts.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"285\" /></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We believe the two factors are related, since statistics around the world show that people spend less time online when they access the internet from a smaller screen. But there is also a cultural effect, since one common Indonesian trait is to do frequent, short bursts of online activity - witness the rapid growth of SMS and Blackberry Messenger on mobile phones, and the emerging growth of Twitter over Facebook.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">And a last thought on the size of Indonesia\'s internet economy</h5>\r\nThe internet economy in Indonesia is currently estimated to be about 1.6% of GDP, a number which indicates the share of Indonesia’s economic output that can be directly attributed to the Internet. For comparison, the UK\'s internet economy is currently estimated at 7.3% of GDP.\r\n\r\nBy 2030, Indonesia is forecast to have a larger economy than the UK. Given the rate of technological progress, it could conservatively be assumed that by 2030 the internet economy in Indonesia will be at least 7% of GDP.\r\n\r\nThese assumptions suggest that the internet economy in Indonesia will grow from US$13 billion today to US$657 billion in 2030, representing a sustained average growth rate of almost 25% for the next 17 years.\r\n\r\n<em>That</em> is a market worth investing in.\r\n<h6>Sources: ITU, Frost &amp; Sullivan, Nielsen, McKinsey Global Institute,Standard Chartered, eMarketer, Deloitte, Bank Indonesia, Gartner.</h6>\r\n&nbsp;','Regional comparisons','','trash','open','closed','','regional-comparisons','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',65,'http://localhost:27055/?page_id=73',0,'page','',0),(151,1,'2013-01-27 07:59:58','2013-01-27 07:59:58','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1152\" alt=\"Page - Investors - investment environment graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Investors-investment-environment-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia\'s tech sector had a frothy 2010 and 2011, but many startups realised in 2012 that trying to monetise eyeballs and clicks is a tough route to profitability. Armed with a new perspective, the sector is now more focused on sustainable business models and delivering breakout value to customers. As the investment environment also matures, multiple opportunities will emerge for investors willing to be flexible in terms of investment structures, and who are prepared to put in business expertise on top of their capital.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>The initial hype phase is over…now it’s time to get serious</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like the early days of the Silicon Valley tech boom in the 1990s, the Indonesian tech sector’s first act was characterised by a oversupply of hype and an undersupply of good solid business models. Too many startups placed their faith in being able to monetise a large user base at some unspecified point in the future, and as it became clear during 2011 and 2012 that eyeballs and clicks might not be enough, a Darwinian shakeout took place.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This was a very good thing.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia now has a much healthier tech sector, led by a number of rapidly-growing online companies who have clearly defined their target segments and who have begun to demonstrate a real ability to make money. Following along behind them is the second generation of Indonesian startups – more focused, more realistic, and far more fixated on delivering services which add real value to the offline and online lives of consumers and businesses.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And as the startups change, so do the investors who fund them. Gone are the days of throwing a hundred thousand dollars at a Groupon clone in the hope that it will pick up enough percentage points of market share to flip to a competitor and exit. In its place is an ecosystem of angel funders, incubators, early-stage funds, mid-stage funds and technology providers who are helping to enhance the technical, marketing and business skills of the tech entrepreneurs so that they can build companies that can thrive and scale.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The next three years will be very exciting times in Indonesia. Customer bases will grow. E-commerce will start to boom. Online payment options will multiply. Unique local online services will emerge. Underpinning all this will be a more methodical approach to managing the startups, driven as much by the discipline of business metrics as by the thrill of new technologies.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Indonesian startups are relatively young, and need active investors</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The top Indonesian sites today have market values of around US$100 million. While billion-dollar internet companies do not yet exist in Indonesia, more $100m tech companies will emerge over the next three years. These valuations will partly be due to the rising user base (internet users will grow from 55m today to 125m by 2015), partly due to higher levels of online spending by the growing Indonesian middle class, and partly due to improved business focus and discipline.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But the raw fact is that this is an investment market in the relatively early days of its development. Today there are a few hundred Indonesian startups, many of which are still two guys in a garage (or, increasingly often, in a shared incubator office). Apart from a handful of companies which are looking for expansion capital, most startups need mentoring, marketing assistance and help making connections as much as they need investment money: the Indonesian tech sector is still in capacity-building mode.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So investment amounts are lower in Indonesia than in the US: initial investments by the incubators are usually under US$50k, angel and seed rounds tend to be $50k-$250k, and Series A at $200k-$500k and Series B at $500k-$5m.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Since startups need more than capital, multiple investment models exist</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Beyond straight financial investments, two other investment models have become more common in the last two years: joint venture partnerships and build-from-scratch.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Joint ventures typically consist of a partnerships between a non-Indonesian company with capital and technical expertise and an Indonesian company with local connections, local facilities and market expertise (and which often does not have an existing internet business). The largest example to date is Rakuten’s partnership with Indonesia’s largest media group, Global Mediacom. eBay has also entered Indonesia in partnership with the largest telecoms operator, Telkom, to develop a joint e-commerce offering.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rocket Internet has been the largest build-from-scratch entrant, having hired hundreds of people to staff its Indonesia operations since launching six online ventures, starting in early 2011. Google has also chosen to hire directly rather than form a JV, in line with its geographic expansion strategy in other markets.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An interesting twist on the two models above is Sumitomo Japan’s partnership with its own in-country subsidiary Sumitomo Indonesia - rather than a genuinely local Indonesian partner - to launch the online grocery Sukamart.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the internet sector is developing along similar lines to some of Indonesia’s more established industries such as mobile, consumer goods and (many years ago) mining and agriculture. The early years are characterised by a mix of local firms, local-foreign partnerships and foreign-owned subsidiaries, driven by the needs of different investor groups to combine capital, expertise, local market knowledge and risk management.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Over time, as local expertise becomes more widespread, the companies take on an increasingly Indonesian flavour. The Big 3 mobile operators were typical of this – during their build-out phase in the 1990s they employed 50-100 expatriate technical experts each, whereas now the overseas investors typically place only one or two key managers and Board directors within the Indonesian operating company.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Exit deals can be done, but transaction details are thin on the ground</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As the tech sector matures, investors focused on each investment stage are beginning to emerge. A number of incubators and early-stage Indonesian VCs are actively investing in startups and mentoring them through their early days. A handful of angel groups exist, although their activity is very much below the radar at the moment. The early-stage VCs are very active, and have moved a number of their startups through to later-stage funding rounds, selling on to other funds or strategic investors.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At this point in time founders, seed investors and early-stage funds are exiting through sales to foreign investors (mainly from Japan and Singapore), foreign .coms (such as Groupon and Yahoo) and local corporate players (primarily in the media sector). The Indonesian stock exchange has an emerging IPO market, and although a number of companies from the mobile sector have gone public over the past three years, no pure-play tech sector companies have yet gone to IPO.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the perspective of deal terms, the Indonesian tech sector is still very much in stealth mode. While investment deals are generally announced when they occur, terms are rarely disclosed, and a standard set of investment metrics is yet to emerge. This obviously leads to challenges in establishing company valuations, which typically tend to be based on market fundamentals and business performance forecasts rather than deal metrics at the present time.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And as the startups and investors develop, we expect to see a Indonesian-flavoured version of the US tech development model emerge: on the one hand, a standard process of startup to incubator to early-stage funding to exit. But on the other hand, a process that will be flavoured with Indonesian <em>sambal</em>, as family-owned enterprises, local conglomerates and networks of local companies put their own unique stamp on the tech growth companies.</p>\r\n\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Jakarta Globe, Frost &amp; Sullivan, Rakuten Belanja, Tech Crunch, Daily Social</h6>','Indonesia\'s tech sector investment environment','','trash','open','open','','investment-environment','','','2013-09-08 15:31:35','2013-09-08 15:31:35','',21,'http://localhost:27055/?page_id=151',0,'page','',0),(164,1,'2013-01-27 08:05:26','2013-01-27 08:05:26','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1548\" alt=\"Page - Startups - Key players graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Startups-Key-players-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesian sites are growing quickly: out of the 50 most-visited sites in Indonesia, 22 are local sites, compared to just 12 sites a year ago.

At the moment it\'s in a realism phase, with a number of larger investors entering the market to build companies which can take advantage of long-term growth trends. In parallel with this, the Indonesian tech ecosystem continues to mature, with incubators, startup communities, tech news sites and regular business plan competitions all serving to raise the level of capability among the tech entrepreneurs.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A rapidly-maturing sector that supports three distinct types of startups</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tech sector in Indonesia began a sustained growth drive in 2010, signalled by the formation of the first Indonesia-focused VCs and a significant rise in the volume of investment deals. With the formation of a number of startup incubators in 2011, plus greater sector awareness through online news sites such as Daily Social, TechInAsia and e27, a healthy ecosystem has been firmly established.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Startups in Indonesia come into being through four distinct routes:</p>\n\n<ul>\n	<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Independent incubation</strong>: independent incubators such as Ideosource, Batavia and InvestIdea provide a mix of funding, mentoring and facilities to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into potential businesses.</li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n	<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Corporate incubation</strong>: incubators tied to larger companies or funds (examples are Grupara/Medco, MerahPutih/GDP Ventures and Mega Media/Indosat) all provide startups with similar services to the independent incubators, but with a potential route into a larger funding entity within the same group.</li>\n</ul>\n<ul>\n	<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Bootstrapping</strong>: self-sufficient founders can pull together the right mix of skills and initial funding themselves. Typically the founders will be:</li>\n</ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">- Entrepreneurs on their second or third Indonesian startup (increasingly common these days)</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">- Indonesians returning home after studying and working abroad</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">- Local graduates who want to try something outside the corporate life</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">- Foreigners who come to Indonesia and discover a tech opportunity</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">- Foreigners with an overseas website who find that many of their early users are from Indonesia</p>\n\n<ul>\n	<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Well-funded startups</strong>: these take a variety of forms, from startups begun by investment funds (eg Blibli/GDP Ventures), startups begun as an Indonesian/foreign JV (eg Rakuten Belanja), startups begun by Indonesian corporates launching digital businesses (eg Gramediana/Kompas), or startups funded by foreign investors (eg Lazada).</li>\n</ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A common view among investors is that one of the most difficult challenges in tech investing in Indonesia is finding the right skills and experience in both the technical and commercial managers of the business. This perceived shortage of skilled resources has directly led to the formation of the numerous incubators in Indonesia, and has also motivated local corporates to form joint ventures with foreign internet companies rather than trying to build their own technology platforms.</p>\n\n<h5>A shift in focus from building user bases to defining sustainable business models</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The focus of many startups around 2010 was on rapidly building a large base of users. With 220 million mobile phone subscribers in Indonesia at the time and widespread prediction of a mobile advertising explosion, it looked like significant revenues could be generated from eyeballs and clicks.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, apart from a brief boom in premium sms services which ended abruptly during the infamous Black October (when the regulators called an immediate halt to premium sms billing practices), most of these startups went under as the mobile advertising revenues remained a distant promise, in Indonesia and in other mobile markets.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1531 alignleft\" style=\"margin-right: 20px;\" alt=\"Page - Startups - Business Model Generation book cover\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Startups-Business-Model-Generation-book-cover.png\" width=\"200\" height=\"158\" />Out of their wreckage emerged a cohort of online businesses which had pursued a more diverse (or more realistic) range of revenue sources from the start, together with a realisation within the tech sector that there were larger rewards to be gained from building sustainable long-term business models than from targeting hit-and-run opportunities.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The current focus of the Indonesian startups is therefore to define and implement business models which have clear routes to profitability and which target clearly-defined needs among Indonesian (and sometimes overseas) customers. A list of the types of ventures being pursued can be found <a title=\"Key startup sectors\" href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/startups/key-startup-sectors/\">here</a>.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"></h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The broader startup environment in Indonesia</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tech startups are given little support by the Indonesian government, and the administrative procedures to set up a new company are famously inefficient (it typically takes 2-3 rather painful months of work to register a corporation in Indonesia versus a few days via an online procedure in Singapore).</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, local startups are given no protection from foreign players, with the tech market being completely open from a regulatory perspective.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, foreign investors quickly find that there are other challenges, ranging from understanding the Indonesian user through to navigating through the Indonesian administrative procedures, so an open regulatory market by no means implies that Indonesian companies are powerless against foreign competition.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Finally, although Indonesia is at heart a very entrepreneurial country, with small and medium businesses representing 99% of all companies, it has not yet got to the point where startups are broadly seen as being cool places to work. Many graduates leave university with the goal of finding a secure job in a large corporation, and startups are often perceived as risky rather than exciting.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of course, this will all change in a heartbeat when Indonesia\'s equivalents of Marc Andreesen, Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs make their first millions, and the architects of Indonesia\'s tech boom come in to the public eye.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"></p>','Startup environment','','trash','open','open','','startup-environment','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',25,'http://localhost:27055/?page_id=168',0,'page','',0),(185,1,'2013-01-27 08:17:44','2013-01-27 08:17:44','Recent posts page','Recent posts','','trash','open','open','','recent-posts','','','2013-09-08 16:09:12','2013-09-08 16:09:12','',0,'http://localhost:27055/?page_id=185',0,'page','',0),(188,1,'2013-06-01 08:18:30','2013-06-01 08:18:30','<a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/terms-and-conditions/attachment/page-terms-conditions-graphic-2/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1253\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1253\" alt=\"Page - Terms &amp; Conditions graphic 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Terms-Conditions-graphic-2.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"261\" /></a>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This page tells you the terms of use which you agree to when you use redwingconsulting.com. redwingconsulting.com is owned and managed by Redwing Consulting Ltd, Arena Business Centre, Holyrood Close, Poole BH17 7BA, England.

This is a mobile-first market: of the 125 million internet users forecast in 2015, the vast majority will only ever access the internet via their smartphone, tablet or - even in 2015 - their feature phone.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>70 million new internet users by 2015</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Growth in Indonesia’s internet sector is accelerating, with consensus forecasts predicting that the number of internet users will grow from 55 million in 2012 to 125 million in 2015. So from a user base that is already larger than Korea\'s, the growth rate in Indonesia will exceed 30% per annum for the next five years.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Three key fundamentals underpin the coming sustained period of growth:</p>\n\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n	<li>Economic growth is robust and consistent at around 6% per year, and personal spending levels are currently rising by over 10% per year.</li>\n	<li>The middle class in Indonesia is growing rapidly, bringing with it strong demand for technology devices and online services.</li>\n	<li>Intense competition between the mobile companies is pushing prices down and also raising consumer awareness through mass market advertising campaigns.</li>\n</ul>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Upside scenario of 150 million users by 2015</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even so, we believe most market forecasts are underestimating future growth, and are not taking into account two of the key dynamics of the Indonesian market – that growth suddenly accelerates when key price points are achieved, and that the mobile operators are going to push mobile data like crazy as one of the few ways they can achieve sustained revenue growth.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We therefore believe that there is a high probability of an upside scenario, with the internet user base reaching 149 million users by 2015:</p>\n<img class=\"size-full wp-image-1192 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - internet chart 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-internet-chart-2.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"371\" />\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Supporting the argument that Indonesia’s potential is currently being under-called are the higher internet penetration rates in other countries around the region. So while Indonesia currently stands at 24%, the Philippines is already at 33% and Vietnam at 56%. Even if Indonesia reaches the 150 million internet users of the upside forecasts, that would still be below Vietnam’s penetration rate today.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Positive changes in user demographics</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not only is the user base growing rapidly, the profile of the typical internet user is changing too. Within the user base, a big shift in the age of users is currently underway. Traditionally the internet base in Indonesia has been dominated by the under-25s, leading to music, entertainment and social media being the most popular uses.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Starting in 2011 the 25-50 age group begin to play catch-up, and has grown so quickly over the past two years that the user base is now relatively evenly spread across all age groups. This has led to the rapid expansion of more lucrative online services such as e-commerce, travel services and online banking.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>It’s not all about the high spenders\n</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We are big believers in the power of market segmentation for tech companies as a means to extract maximum market value from limited early-stage resources. Indonesia has a segment than many overlook, and it happens to include more than 100 million users: internet access via mid-level mobile phones.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2G and 2.5G mobile phones are still a huge chunk of the market in Indonesia (around 75% of all handsets), and many users in Indonesia use a feature phone browser to access the internet, messaging, information and entertainment services.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the internet sector is about much more than delivering digital services via broadband and 3G to PCs, laptops, smartphones and tablets. It\'s also about much more than targeting e-commerce services at credit card holders.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Is there any money to be made? Ask mig33, a social network for feature phones. They have 40 million users in Indonesia with an average monthly revenue of US$3 per month.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So although smartphones have quickly grown to 15% of the mobile market, it is important to recognise that there are still over 150 million feature phones in use. Many of these users are part of the middle class consumer market, and this segment represents both a large market for digital services and a very significant advertising market.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We think mig33 won\'t be the only US$100m+ company in the lower levels of Indonesia\'s very large pyramid.</p>\n\n<h6>Sources: World Bank, IMF, Brookings Institute, Frost &amp; Sullivan, IDC, ITU, Business Monitor International, McKinsey Global Institute, Social Bakers, Semiocast, MarkPlus</h6>','Indonesia\'s internet market','','trash','open','open','','market-data-internet','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',65,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=260',0,'page','',0),(262,1,'2013-02-13 07:22:18','2013-02-13 07:22:18','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1477\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - media graphic 5\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-media-graphic-5.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" /></p>\n\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The internet is having a profound impact Indonesia’s media landscape, and overtook print and radio for the first time in 2012 in terms of reach. While television is still the dominant medium with near-100% monthly reach, all the media conglomerates are currently either implementing or conceiving online digital strategies. The young and tech-savvy consumer base is highly social media aware, and supports a huge advertising market that will soon exceed US$10 billion.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>A large, dynamic and open media market with television at the forefront</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Television dominates the media landscape in Indonesia – 97% of the population watch television each month, which means a TV audience of almost 240 million people. As a result, a large proportion of advertising spend goes to television – around 60% in 2011. National channels dominate the market, with local channels only holding a 3% share of viewers.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Television therefore plays a major role in setting agendas in Indonesia, from politics to market trends to consumer fads. Coupled with social media, it can result in huge audiences and user bases across the nation - witness the 1,000+ episodes in just four years of the top soap opera <em>Cinta Fitri</em>, or the 55 million Indonesian supporters of Manchester United Football Club.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Significantly, the internet became the second most widely-viewed medium in 2012, overtaking both newspapers and radio to achieve a monthly reach of 57% of the population. Behind newspapers and radio, magazines trail at a distant fifth with a 12% market reach.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1240 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - media reach chart\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-media-reach-chart.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"370\" /></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While the growth of the internet is clearly changing media consumption habits in Indonesia, the rapid expansion of the overall consumer market means that all media markets are still growing. As an example, although the overall reach of newspapers fell slightly in 2011, circulation numbers rose by 25% during the year.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>A substantial base of media outlets</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Television is ubiquitous in Indonesia, with 11 national TV stations in Indonesia, 10 privately-owned channels and 1 public channel. These are complemented by 350 local TV stations.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cable and satellite TV are still relatively small markets, with 2.5m households in 2012, representing a 4% household penetration. Subscriptions are almost exclusively among the A and B social groups, and high prices have inhibited growth to date. Although the level of competition is increasing, the household penetration rate is only expected to rise to 7% by 2015.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Despite the large number of titles in print, newspapers still have a relatively low circulation, Total circulation for the 172 daily newspapers in the entire country totals only six million, with the largest newspaper, Kompas, having a circulation of around 500,000.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Radio is the other widely spread media format in Indonesia, reaching over half the population each month. In addition to the 1,250 radio stations there are numerous small-scale community radio stations. There is a notably long prime-time each workday from 6-10am and 3-7pm as city-dwellers fight their way through the notorious and ubiquitous <em>macet</em> (traffic jams).</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are 1,100 print media publications in Indonesia, a mix of foreign and local titles, covering the full range of fashion, lifestyle, business, sport and entertainment genres.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Advertising market will reach US$10 bn in 2013\n</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia has a huge advertising market, which is forecast to reach US$10bn in 2013. To put this in perspective, Indonesia\'s ad market is larger than India\'s, despite having only a fifth of the population size.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1241 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - media ad spend chart\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-media-ad-spend-chart.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"372\" /></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A second significant category by global standards is mobile ads, which grew by 100% in 2012. With an estimated 200 billion ad impressions delivered in 2012, Indonesia was the second largest market for mobile ads in the world, beaten only by the US.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Social media are ubiquitous</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia has gained a reputation as the social media capital of the world, and the reputation is richly deserved. Not only is the penetration of social media high - Indonesia is among Facebook\'s and Twitter\'s largest global markets - but Indonesians are also some of the most active users of social networking. Nearly nine out of every 10 internet users in Indonesia regularly use a social network, and Indonesians make an estimated 6 billion views per month on social networks.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unsurprisingly, younger people dominate the social media user bases, with 70% of the Indonesian Facebook base aged under 25. In addition, 75% of Facebook users in Indonesia access the site via their mobile phone, again showing the importance of mobile in the modern media market.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Facebook now has around 47 million users in Indonesia, although growth has plateaued over the past six months and we are hearing increasingly frequent pieces of on-the-ground evidence that Facebook may be on the wane. Twitter on the other hand is growing very rapidly, more than doubling in 2012 to nearly 30 million users.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Regardless of who owns the users, social media will continue to be huge in Indonesia for the coming years, and other Indonesian services such as mig33 and Koprol were also among the world\'s fastest growing social networks in 2012. These widespread social media networks, together with huge television audiences, combine to make Indonesia an extremely dynamic and fast-moving market for both broadcast and interactive media.</p>\n\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: World Bank, CIPG, Yahoo/TNS, Manchester Business School, Indonesian Newspaper Association, New York Times, Pyramid Research, Semiocast, Social Bakers, Jakarta Post, BBC, Inside Facebook</h6>','Indonesia\'s media market','','trash','open','open','','market-data-media','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',65,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=262',0,'page','',0),(265,1,'2013-02-13 07:23:21','2013-02-13 07:23:21','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1481\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - telecoms graphic 4\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-telecoms-graphic-4.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" /></p>\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">With 278 million subscribers, Indonesia is the 4th largest mobile market in the world. It is also in the world’s top ten 3G markets, with broadband users skipping fixed connections and going straight to mobile (just as they did before with voice telephony). The rapid move to smartphones means the mobile operators are also key players in the internet sector, though note that 2.5G mobile technology is still remarkably widespread. Fixed broadband lines only feature at the top of the market, targeted at businesses and high-end consumers.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>One of the world’s largest mobile markets</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Indonesian telecoms sector is first and foremost a mobile market, and the 278m mobile subscribers completely overshadow the 9m fixed lines and 12m fixed-wireless subscribers. So any discussion of telecoms in Indonesia inevitably has a primary focus on mobile.</p>\r\nAt a headline level, the Indonesian mobile market is characterised by:\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li>Prepaid (98% of subscribers are prepaid users)</li>\r\n	<li>A huge data market (115m data users in 2012)</li>\r\n	<li>Rising data revenues (already over 30% of the average user’s spend)</li>\r\n	<li>High volumes of messaging and mobile ads</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Growth was rapid throughout the 2000s, with the subscriber base growing at an average of 37% per year from 2005. The market hit its saturation point in 2010 as penetration hit 100%, and as a result growth slowed down to 12% in 2011 and 2012.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While underlying growth is forecast to continue in mobile (130% penetration - 330m mobile subscribers - is the consensus forecast for 2015), the main focus of the mobile operators is now to drive the growth of data subscribers and the associated data revenues.</p>\r\n<img class=\"size-full wp-image-1459 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data - Telecoms graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-Telecoms-graphic.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"371\" />\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Having shown you the big numbers, we should also add a caveat: one of the unusual characteristics of Indonesia’s mobile market is the ubiquity of multiple SIMs. Many subscribers hold two or three <em>active</em> SIM cards - and often own two or three phones. People do this in order to find the best signal quality (for higher end subscribers) or the cheapest prices (for lower end subscribers). So the number of unique users in Indonesia is actually around 165m, which means on average each user holds 1.7 active SIM cards.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Rapid shift to smartphones and 3G</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While Blackberrys have long been extremely popular (Indonesia was Blackberry’s third biggest market in 2012, after the US and UK), smartphone growth really took off in 2010 as the price of Android smartphones fell below US$200.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Growth since 2010 has been rapid, and at the end of 2012 there were 33m smartphones in Indonesia, representing 15% of all handsets. We believe this will grow quickly over the next three years, since by early 2013 the price of the cheapest Android smartphone in the market had already fallen to Rp. 499,000 (US$51), which is easily affordable for many Indonesians from the C social class (and is within reach of even the Ds). Note that the mobile operators do not subsidise handsets like they typically do in the US and Europe.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By 2015, the consensus forecast is that smartphones will represent around 40% of all handsets. This means around 75m smartphones will be bought in Indonesia in the next three years. (And at this point we would like to note that pretty much every smartphone forecast around the world over the past three years has been an under-estimate).</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 3G services market is already sizeable, and was ranked the 10th largest in the world in 2011. The mobile operators are pushing data services very strongly, backed up with huge advertising budgets, and helped along by falling device and subscription prices. All the big three operators – Telkomsel, Indosat and XL – have stated that stimulating growth in data services is now their top market priority.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5><b style=\"text-align: justify;\">But feature phones and 2.5G still matter, and both are full of innovations</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although smartphones are growing rapidly, feature phones will still dominate the installed base for the coming five years. There are currently 180m active feature phones in Indonesia, and by 2015 there will still be 140m feature phone users.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These phones are usually connected to the internet via slower 2.5G connections, and use simple browsers such as Opera Mini. However, it would be a mistake to think these users are unsophisticated. It is simply fascinating to watch a salesperson from one of the hundreds of stalls in Jakarta’s Mangga Dua electronics mall take a thirty dollar feature phone and within minutes have it running Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp while also providing the owner with the capability to surf the web from anywhere with a mobile signal.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5><b style=\"text-align: justify;\">The fixed network serves the top end of the market</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The number of fixed connections in Indonesia has slowly risen from around 9.7m lines in 2005 to nearly 11m lines in 2012. Customers are primarily businesses and institutions, concentrated in the major cities, who use fixed lines to obtain the high broadband data speeds required to run their organisations.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fixed wireless connections grew in the late 2000s as part of efforts by Telkom and Indosat to increase fixed line penetration in outlying geographies, and peaked at 18.7m users in 2010.

The most common investment strategies to date have been forming a JV with a local Indonesian company, acquiring an existing tech company, or opening a local subsidiary then hiring local employees (and sometimes bringing in overseas executives too). The foreign investors have brought both capital and skills, with investors to date coming from the US, Japan, China, Korea and Europe.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Indonesia has already seen two waves of foreign investments.</strong></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first wave of foreign investment, in 2010 and 2011, was fundamentally a land-grab. Indonesia experienced a mini internet boom as Yahoo, Groupon and DailySocial all made high-profile acquisitions. There was a single primary goal: to buy the leading Indonesian internet companies before someone else got their hands on them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second wave has been more about establishing a long-term presence in the Indonesian market, rather than making outright acquisitions. The majority of transactions have been undertaken by Japanese and Chinese investors, who have tended to take a joint venture approach. However, the largest investment has come from Europe, in the shape of Rocket Internet and its six online ventures.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first wave: Yahoo, daily deals, and more</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-768\" alt=\"Koprol-Yahoo logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Koprol-Yahoo-logo.jpg\" width=\"147\" height=\"41\" />   <img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-907\" alt=\"Groupon Disdus logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Groupon-Disdus-logo.png\" width=\"99\" height=\"42\" />   <img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-790\" alt=\"DealKeren logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/DealKeren-logo.png\" width=\"125\" height=\"42\" />  <img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-789\" alt=\"Rumah123 logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Rumah123-logo.png\" width=\"169\" height=\"32\" /></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With Yahoo\'s surprise purchase of location-based service Koprol in 2010, Indonesia was suddenly on the tech world\'s map. Next, a daily deals frenzy broke out, with Groupon and LivingSocial both buying the leading Indonesian companies in 2011. Somewhat overshadowed by all this, a bidding war also went on for the leading property portals, with the top three all being acquired within a space of four months.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike many frenzies, where the common end result is buyer\'s remorse, a number of these acquisitions led to seller\'s remorse. The daily deals market globally took a swoon, while Yahoo was having its own internal problems, so the Koprol, Disdus and DealKeren deals have not yet fulfilled their obvious potential in Indonesia. Conversely, the property portals are thriving, and reporting healthy growth rates in line with the booming internet sector.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second wave: establishing a beach-head</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Going in to 2012, a consensus emerged among the foreign investors: Indonesia is a market where the rewards come to those who commit to the long-term development of the internet sector, but it is not a hit-and-run market. As part of broader long-term regional strategies, Google opened an office in Jakarta, Rocket Internet launched a number of e-commerce ventures, and the Japanese investor funds became significantly more active.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The most influential foreign investors in the Indonesia tech sector currently:</h5>\r\n<table style=\"width: 700px;\" border=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr style=\"height: 160px;\">\r\n<td style=\"width: 165px;\"><img alt=\"Zalora Lazada logos 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Zalora-Lazada-logos-2.png\" width=\"160\" height=\"120\" /></td>\r\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Germany\'s Rocket Internet calls itself a startup incubator, but few other incubators have US$ 90 million of funding behind them.  Armed with this warchest, Rocket has launched six ventures so far in Indonesia (and others in four other SE Asia countries), from e-commerce to food delivery to price comparison sites.

But in other ways, it is more like the early days of the e-commerce boom in China - a lively entrepreneurial base of sellers is clamouring to get online, users are placing great emphasis on social recommendations, and innovative payment systems are emerging rapidly to serve the coming wave of demand. Over the next few years, Indonesia is likely to create its own unique hybrid version of these two huge e-commerce markets.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A market with huge potential, as the barriers to growth get knocked down</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The retail market in Indonesia is estimated at US$ 134 billion in sales per year, of which only 0.7% (US$ 1 billion) are facilitated online, compared with 5% in the US and China. In 2012, around 6% of all internet users in Indonesia made an online purchase.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Note the word \'facilitated\' in the above sentence. Many online transactions in Indonesia are paid for offline, either through a bank transfer to the seller or via cash on delivery. Even the CEO of online payment gateway Veritrans defines e-commerce in Indonesia as \"transactions facilitated but not necessarily completed online.\"</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2012, 70% of e-commerce users made a payment via bank transfer, 35% via credit or debit cards and 30% via cash on delivery. So while payment habits will shift towards credit and debit cards over time, Indonesia\'s e-commerce market will also be about managing effective offline payment methods.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As well as payments, the e-commerce providers are also steadily solving the logistics challenges of a country with 240 million people spread across 17,000 islands. This is being addressed in two ways:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li>Firstly, the logistics infrastructure as a whole is shifting towards the efficient delivery (and occasional return) of online orders, as local companies such as JNE and Tiki begin upgrading their IT systems and expanding their nationwide networks.</li>\r\n	<li>Secondly, through the emergence of a number of e-commerce verticals, which tend to have a tighter geographic focus than the all-things-to-all-people sites like Lazada and Tokobagus. As a perspective on the viability of verticals, remember that Jakarta alone has roughly the same sized economy as the whole of Malaysia.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A multi-faceted e-commerce market</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Forecasts of the value of Indonesia\'s e-commerce market vary widely, from around US$ 1 billion in 2015 to nearer US$ 10 billion. This partly reflects the many unknowns in how the market will grow over the next few years, and also the vagaries in counting the value of offline purchases that originated with online activity.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Redwing\'s weighted forecast suggests the e-commerce market is currently worth over US$ 1 billion, and will grow 250% over the next three years:</p>\r\n\r\n<h5><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1489 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data - ecommerce chart 4\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-ecommerce-chart-4.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"372\" /></h5>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A huge base of small and medium businesses</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The other factor that we believe will underpin rapid growth in the Indonesian e-commerce market is the business mix: small and medium businesses (SMBs) represent 99% of all companies in Indonesia, and there are over 40 million of them throughout the country.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Right now only a few tens of thousands of SMBs are online. But with companies such as Google actively trying to bring them online through nationwide education programs, and with multiple e-commerce providers actively courting them, a rapid expansion is underway.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The model most likely to be followed is the Chinese one, where sites such as Alibaba, Taobao and TMall have played a major role in facilitating the smaller companies to come online, while catering to the different needs of established and work-at-home traders.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">E-commerce in Indonesia will also need to include a very strong social component, reflecting the existing habits of Indonesian shoppers.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the winners will be those who can make it so ridiculously easy to get an online shop running online that the SMBs can overcome their general lack of technology expertise, while showing the users how buying online can be fun, sociable, safe and cheap.</p>\r\n\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Bank Indonesia, AKKI, APJII, Frosy &amp; Sullivan, Bloomberg, US AID, Veritrans, Google, Menegkominfo.</h6>','E-commerce','','trash','open','open','','e-commerce-2','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',65,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=303',0,'page','',0),(331,1,'2013-02-13 08:10:19','2013-02-13 08:10:19','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1486\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - social media graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-social-media-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" />\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia is currently vying with Brazil for the title of social media capital of the world, and the stats show why.

The second reason is supply: ingenious tweaking gets Facebook working on even the lowliest feature phone, so more than 80% of the mobile base of 278 million subscribers can potentially access social media services.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Twitter users booming, but Facebook may be stalling</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After experiencing meteoric growth from 15 million to 40 million users in just 18 months, Facebook has plateaued at around 47 million users. Twitter, on the other hand, is in the middle of its meteoric growth phase, with the number of users conservatively estimated at 35 million at the end of 2012.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What these numbers show is the incredible impact of the network effect on a large base of highly-connected individuals. Neither Facebook nor Twitter have a physical presence in Indonesia, yet during their growth spurt periods each service put on 25 million users in the space of 18 months, driven purely by word of mouth.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-973 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data social media Facebook-Twitter chart 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-social-media-Facebook-Twitter-chart-2.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"371\" /></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, word of mouth cuts both ways. We\'re hearing the phrase <em>Fesbuk sudah tua</em> (\"Facebook - already an old man\") with increasing frequency, especially in Jakarta. It\'s also gaining a reputation as a platform for people to spam their social circles with goods for sale. If these becomes Facebook\'s image in 2013 then its days of ruling the Indonesian social network scene could be coming to an end.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Social media is more than just chatting</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A look at the most visited websites in Indonesia always throws up a frequent surprise for new investors: blogspot.com, blogger.com and wordpress.com all appear in the top 10. With over 5 million active blogs, Indonesians use the blogosphere as a means to express political, personal and business views.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And, as with the social media companies in the US and Europe, the platforms in Indonesia are looking to monetise their user bases. The most common approach is through targeted advertising and sponsored pages. But online commerce is also a valid route - Kaskus.com, Indonesia\'s largest community site with 4.5 million users, is seeking to leverage the buying and selling that goes on between its members on an informal basis to add e-commerce to its offering in an attempt to become a social commerce platform.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">There\'s real money outside Facebook and Twitter</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the unsung success stories in social media in Indonesia is mig33, recently lauded as the 7th fastest-growing social platform in the world. mig33 is a mobile social network where users can chat, play games and buy virtual goods for their friends. Initially targeted at feature phones, it has been a big hit in Indonesia, where it has 40 million users.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But more important than the user base is the revenue mig33 is generating. Using an innovative twist on multi-level marketing techniques, mig33 uses a real-world cash-based system to collect money from its users, thereby getting around the fact that most of its users don\'t have credit or debit cards. This combination of social commerce and real-world payments has enabled mig33 to generate revenues of US$3 per user per month in Indonesia.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">That\'s over 400% higher than Facebook\'s average revenue per user in Asia. Not bad for a social media company that you\'ve probably never heard of.</p>\n\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Veritrans, Social Bankers, GlobalWebIndex, TechInAsia, Alexa</h6>','Social media','','trash','open','open','','social-media-2','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',65,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=331',0,'page','',1),(352,1,'2013-02-13 08:21:46','2013-02-13 08:21:46','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1483\" alt=\"Page - Market Data - user trends graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-Data-user-trends-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" /></p>\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">As you\'d expect in a country where the average age is 28, the typical Indonesian internet user is a young, tech-savvy city dweller. So it\'s a surprise to learn that the most rapid growth in internet users is currently coming from the 30+ age groups and the secondary cities. We believe this is great, great news for tech investors. Because it means the market is rapidly moving away from its past obsession with social media chatting and simple free entertainment, and moving towards e-commerce, paid online content and B2B services.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Moving away from a user base which was simply too young</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Five years ago, Indonesia\'s mobile and internet markets were dominated by the under-25s. Energetic and talkative, they made Indonesia the social media capital of the world. The problem was, they didn\'t spend much money online, in large part because most under-25s don\'t have much money to spend.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wind the clock forwards and the picture is changing rapidly. The fastest-growing age group in terms of internet adoption over the past three years has been the 35-39 year-olds. The second fastest-growing group was the 30-34 year-olds. Wealthier, busier, and with businesses to run and families to manage, they place more value on the convenience that the internet offers and have a higher ability to pay for services. The rapid rise of startups such as home food delivery and e-commerce verticals is a direct result of this user base trend.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-955 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data user profiles age groups chart 4\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-user-profiles-age-groups-chart-4.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"371\" /></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This spreading-out of the user base is evident in other areas too. While penetration is highest in the A social class, the fastest growth is currently occurring in the C social class, and the ABC social classes are now fairly evenly represented in the overall user base. From a gender perspective, more men use the internet each month than women, but the higher growth rates are among the female age groups.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Two clear usage segments emerging</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As the composition of the user base evolves, two clear usage segments are emerging. One is older (25+) and wealthier, with a primary focus on gaining utility from the internet - we call these the Utility Users. The other is younger with less disposable income, and has a primary focus on finding entertainment on the internet - we\'ve named them the Entertainment Users.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here is one example of how the two segments clearly differ in their behaviour:</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-963 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data user profiles usage location chart 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-user-profiles-usage-location-chart-2.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"262\" /></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The older, wealthier Utility Users primarily use the internet from home, and secondarily from their office. The Entertainment Users are very different, and still make heavy use of <em>Wartels</em> (public internet cafes). Beyond this graph, further statistics show that the Utility Users also access the internet through different devices: primarily desktops and laptops, then smartphones. The Entertainment Users mainly access the internet through feature phones.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A second striking difference is in <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">what</span> they access on the internet:</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-1204 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data user profiles top topics chart 6\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-user-profiles-top-topics-chart-6.png\" width=\"654\" height=\"198\" /></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While social networking appears near the top of both lists (Indonesians <em>really are</em> some of the most sociable people on earth), the Utility Users are also heavy users of typical productivity services such as email and news portals.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why does all this matter?</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One of the most common (and one of the biggest) errors that new investors make in Indonesia is to think of the country as a market of 240 million people. It\'s not - it\'s a huge market made up of different segments with distinct needs and behaviours (with the above two segments merely representing a high-level simplification of a much richer picture).</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For a startup tech company with a limited number of people and limited marketing budgets, trying to target the whole of Indonesia at once can be suicidal.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Launching a new internet company is all about focus, and that has to start with selecting a slice of the market where the planned service is most likely to thrive. Segmenting the users by demographics and behaviour is a first step. A geographic filter is a often second. More sophisticated usage habits and psychographic variables can be third. These all go towards building an actionable view of the market from which post-launch changes and pivots can be made.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The bottom line: by understanding user trends, investors can get a better return on every single dollar they put in to a tech startup.</p>\r\n\r\n<h6>Sources: Nielsen, University of Indonesia, Statistics Indonesia, Yahoo/TNS, World Bank, Veritrans.</h6>','User trends','','trash','closed','closed','','user-trends','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',65,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=352',0,'page','',0),(382,1,'2013-02-13 09:18:28','2013-02-13 09:18:28','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1544\" alt=\"Page - Startups - Key sectors graphic 5\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Startups-Key-sectors-graphic-5.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" /></p>\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia\'s startups are currently developing a range of E-commerce, mobile, social media, digital content and entertainment offerings, with a focus on ideas that are based on sustainable business models.

The broadband price war between the Big 3 (Telkomsel, Indosat and XL) that began in 2009 marked the start of Indonesia\'s internet boom, and their high marketing spend continues to push the market forwards. The fixed-line ISPs simply don\'t have the scale to compete in the mass market, so their focus is on businesses and wealthier residential customers.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dramatic shift in access technologies</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The past three years has seen a rapid change in the types of technologies used by Indonesians to access the internet. Until 2009, broadband internet connections were very expensive (US$50 per month and up) relative to average salaries, so the majority of internet users gained access via internet cafes (the previously ubiquitous Warung Internets, or <em>Warnets</em> as they are known).</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2009 a broadband price war started between the mobile operators, built on the successful deployment of enhanced 2G technologies and also the build-out of 3G in the more lucrative cities. Within two years the monthly internet access fee had fallen below US$20. In a clear demonstration of how the mobile operators drive the internet market in Indonesia, between 2009 and 2012 mobile internet access tripled and Warnet access fell by half.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">An ISP market dominated by the mobile operators</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are around 300 ISPs in Indonesia, 35 of which own network infrastructure, with the rest simply reselling capacity. The mobile operators are the largest ISPs by far, because the majority of users in Indonesia access the internet via a mobile device.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Telkomsel and Indosat are the largest ISPs, and are able to offer both mobile and fixed internet access through their group companies. XL is the third largest ISP. The other mobile operators (3, Axis, SmartFren, Esia and Ceria) are significantly smaller, since the Big 3 hold an 80% share of the mobile market.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The top 3 sell their internet connections under the following brand names:</p>\r\n\r\n<table style=\"width: 650px;\" border=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr style=\"height: 60px;\">\r\n<td style=\"width: 190px;\"><img alt=\"Speedy\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Speedy.png\" width=\"160\" height=\"49\" /></td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Telkomsel Speedy (also bundled with Telkom Flash, a fixed-line broadband service)</span></td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr style=\"height: 60px;\">\r\n<td style=\"width: 190px;\"><img alt=\"Indosat Super 3G\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Indosat-Super-3G.png\" width=\"160\" height=\"52\" /></td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Indosat Super 3G</span></td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr style=\"height: 60px;\">\r\n<td style=\"width: 190px;\"><img alt=\"XL hotrod\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/XL-hotrod.png\" width=\"160\" height=\"32\" /></td>\r\n<td><span style=\"font-size: small;\">XL Hotrod</span></td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</tbody>\r\n</table>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Line speeds are similar between all three operators, with connection speeds generally peaking at around 3Mbps...on a good day and in a good location. And despite claims by the providers of much higher broadband speeds, most times in Indonesia you are happy if you can get a steady 512 kbps, especially if you\'re in a high-density area such as Jakarta\'s Golden Triangle.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fixed ISPs focus on high-end business and residential markets</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A number of fixed-line ISPs have built fibre-optic networks of varying sizes and capacities in some of the major cities. They primarily focus on business customers, plus some residential and apartment buildings, offering line speeds of up to 50 Mbps, but with correspondingly high prices. They have increasingly become niche high-end providers, and though they talk a good fight they are unable to compete with the massive customer bases and marketing budgets of the mobile operators.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The cable TV providers such as FirstMedia and Kabelvision also provide high-speed fixed internet connections, but cable TV penetration is relatively low in Indonesia (reaching about 4% of households) so they are not major players in the overall market.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So Indonesia will remain - as it always has been - a mobile-led market, with Telkomsel, Indosat and XL setting the pace for the other ISPs in terms of pricing, data allowances and benchmark line speeds.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And if they play their cards right, the Big 3 also have an opportunity to leverage their market-dominating position to provide internet services, and to develop significant revenue streams from messaging, entertainment, social media and e-commerce applications.</p>\r\n\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: APJII, Telkomsel, Indosat, XL Axiata, Telkom, Pyramid Research, Yahoo/TNS.</h6>','Indonesia - ISP industry structure','','trash','open','open','','isp-industry-structure','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',17,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=390',0,'page','',0),(392,1,'2013-02-13 09:24:48','2013-02-13 09:24:48','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1575\" alt=\"Page - Context - Media industry structure graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Media-industry-structure-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although Indonesia\'s media market is very open from a regulatory perspective, the industry is concentrated in the hands of 12 major media groups.

Merger and acquisition activity has been intense over the past few years, resulting in 12 large and diversified media groups. Between them, the 12 groups now own around 60 tv stations, 60 radio stations, 320 print titles and 10 substantial online properties.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Media Nusantara Citra (MNC) Group is the biggest media group, with 3 terrestrial television stations, 3 Pay-TV stations, 14 local television stations and 22 radio stations spread across Indonesia, as well as newspaper and print tiles.

These are primarily news-led sites, with the exception of kompasiana.com which is a user-generated journalism site.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">MNC has been the most aggressive mover in the internet sector, setting up Okezone in 2007, E-commerce venture Rakuten Belanja in 2011, and launching a JV with Tencent in 2013.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kompas Gramedia has been the second most active, relaunching kompas.com in 2008, introducing a suite of smartphone apps in 2011 and 2012, and launching digital publishing service Gramediana in 2013.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A US$ 10 billion ad market in 2013</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia has the largest ad market in SE Asia in dollar terms (forecast to be US$ 10 billion in 2013).

While eight mobile operators make the market openly competitive, the Big 3 operators - Telkomsel, Indosat and XL Axiata - have 80% market share between them. The other influential players in the industry are the device manufacturers, and local handset companies now compete fiercely with the global players. In the fixed line market, Telkom and other niche players primarily focus on business customers.</h4>\r\n<h5>A mobile market dominated by 3 players</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the end of 2012, the Big 3 owned 221 million of the 278 million mobile subscribers in Indonesia. Within the Big 3, Telkomsel is undeniably the Big 1, and its user base of 123 million makes it the 7th largest mobile company in the world. And though Indosat with 55 million subscribers and XL Axiata with 42 million subscribers both trail Telkomsel, they are well ahead of the fourth largest operator, 3 (known as <em>Tri</em> in Indonesia), which has 20 million subscribers.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All of the operators are now determinedly focused on growing the mobile data market, and have enormous influence over the development of the internet sector. The amount of advertising dollars they are putting behind their 3G and enhanced-2G offerings is a direct driver of increasing internet penetration in Indonesia.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Big 3 also influence the market in terms of setting <em>de facto</em> standards, and how they choose to implement technologies such as mobile ad platforms, payment systems and security systems has a major impact on companies who are delivering internet services.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A prepaid rather than a postpaid market</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">98% of mobile subscribers in Indonesia pay via prepaid cards or electronic top-up vouchers. Handsets are not subsidised by the operators, and long-term contracts do not exist, even for postpaid customers.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The dominance of prepaid has led to the establishment of extremely large nationwide distribution channels, facilitated by the handset manufacturers to sell devices and facilitated by the mobile operators to sell minutes, messages and megabytes of use. A number of large distributors such as Trikomsel (Oke stores) and Erajaya (Erafone stores) have emerged, both of whom have gone public via IPOs. The need for distribution has also led to huge megamalls of mobile shops, such as Jakarta\'s eye-wateringly large Roxy Mas.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">High-profile handsets aren\'t necessarily top-selling handsets</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While flagship devices such as iPhones, Galaxys and Blackberry Z10s grab the headlines, none of these phones is even remotely near the top of the bestseller list in Indonesia. Smartphones are expected to be around 20% of all handset sales in 2013, with most of the remaining 80% consisting of feature phones. However, note that most feature phones in Indonesia provide full internet access, including Facebook, Twitter and browser capabilities.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The top 5 handset manufacturers by shipments are Nokia, Cross, Samsung, Mito and Blackberry. Cross and Mito are fast-growing local manufacturers who sell handsets made by Chinese OEMs. Both have been historically strong in the feature phone market and are now moving into value-priced smartphones - how does Rp. 499,000 (US$ 51) for an Android-based smartphone with a 3.5\" touchscreen, camera and a 1GHz processor sound?</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fixed line players target high-end customers</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Telkom, Indonesia\'s old PTT, still dominates the fixed line market, but it is a market with very low line growth: the number of fixed connections has drifted up from around 9.7m lines in 2005 to nearly 11m lines in 2012. Revenue growth still continues, however, as business and institutional customers seek ever higher broadband data speeds to run their organisations.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fixed-wireless connections were a growth market in the late 2000s, peaking at 18.7m users in 2010. This technology is now in a slow decline as customers move over to full mobile services, and the market had fallen to around 14m customers by the end of 2012.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cable and satellite TV are still relatively small markets, with 2.5m households in 2012, representing a 4% household penetration. They do provide high speed broadband services, but high subscription prices have inhibited growth to date, and household penetration is only expected to rise to 7% by 2015.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So Indonesia\'s telecoms market will remain mobile-led. The mobile operators will be the major determinant of market growth, the mobile handset manufacturers the major determinant of how users experience the internet, and the mobile phone distributors will play a major role in promoting internet-ready handsets to Indonesia\'s 240 million potential customers.</p>\r\n\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Telkomsel, Indosat, XL Axiata, Jakarta Post, Kompas, Frost &amp; Sullivan, IDC, Pyramid Research.</h6>','Indonesia - Telecoms industry structure','','trash','open','open','','telecoms-industry-structure','','','2013-09-08 15:31:37','2013-09-08 15:31:37','',17,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=394',0,'page','',0),(545,1,'2013-02-22 02:11:18','2013-02-22 02:11:18','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-989\" alt=\"Page - Why indonesia graphic 4\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Why-indonesia-graphic-4.jpg\" width=\"701\" height=\"252\" /></p>\n\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Humbler and quieter than the flashier economic stars of China and India, Indonesia offers spectacular opportunities for tech investors wanting to get in on the ground level of an economy that is expected to exceed the size of Germany and the UK within two decades. Indonesia is already one of the world’s top five markets in mobile subscribers, Facebook users, Twitter users and mobile ads, yet we still believe it can deliver a number of surprises on the upside. And with a burgeoning middle class and an average age of 28, its highly favourable long-term demographics mean that tech opportunities will abound.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Rapid growth driven by strong fundamentals</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By any measures, all the tech numbers for Indonesia look good: its base of 55 million internet users today (larger than Korea’s) will grow rapidly to 125 million users by 2015 (more than Japan’s). And in parallel with this expansion, everything from e-commerce to online media to B2B applications will grow rapidly.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This growth is driven by one of the world’s most vibrant mobile markets: Indonesia’s huge and growing mobile market now has 278 million subscribers, 15% of mobile users already have smartphones, and the mobile ad market delivered around 200 <i>billion</i> impressions last year, second only to the US. On top of this, Indonesia is in the top five countries for both Facebook and Twitter usage, as well as having the world’s most active Twitter city, Jakarta.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sitting behind all these numbers is a well-managed economy whose growth from 2012-2107 will only be exceeded by China among the world’s major economies. Indeed, over the past decade or so, the Indonesian economy has been so robust that it sailed through the 2008 financial crisis with barely a blip on growth.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But these numbers – while hugely positive in themselves – sit on top of a far more exciting story: Indonesia’s internet market is likely to offer some of the biggest opportunities for tech investors in Asia over the coming decade.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>A huge consumer market that experiences step-change growth spurts</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia’s middle-class is already big, and it\'s booming. It will double over the next seven years to 85 million people, and by 2030 there will be 135 million middle-class consumers. At that point, Indonesia’s economy will be the 7th largest in the world, exceeding the economies of both Germany and the UK.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And to put the size of today\'s Indonesia into perspective, its dynamic, fast-growing capital Jakarta has a population and GDP equivalent to that of the whole of Malaysia.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But this expansion of the middle-class is only half the story – the other half is technology affordability. Indonesia is a young, tech-savvy nation, full of people who are extremely enthusiastic to own and use the latest gadgets and technologies. The main barrier to ownership is not interest or desire, it is price.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the fact that the consumer’s spending power is increasing at the same time as technologies are becoming cheaper means that the price-affordability balance for the average Indonesian can suddenly change very quickly. Unlike developed economies, where growth is primarily driven by the pace of mass market adoption, Indonesia experiences huge step-changes of growth as waves of pent-up demand are suddenly satisfied when the technology hits key price points.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Look at two recent examples:</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;\"><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image/png;base64,[encoded data, 50140 characters]\" />    <img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image/png;base64,[encoded data, 52292 characters]\" /></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What you see in the first graph above is how internet subscriptions in Indonesia rocketed upwards when the mobile operators began a 3G price war in 2009, bringing the monthly cost of an internet connection down from US$50+ to US$15, and in the second graph the sudden growth in smartphone purchases when the street price fell from US$400+ to under US$200 in 2010. (And it\'s also worth noting that the sprawling Mangga Dua Mall in North Jakarta is already selling Android smartphones priced a shade over US$50).</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the technology markets in Indonesia frequently leap forwards in large steps as technology suddenly becomes affordable for the mass consumer market, rather than growing steadily as technology is adopted. What underlies this characteristic (and what many outsiders don’t realize) is that Indonesia is not like other Asian manufacturing-led economies. 60% of Indonesia’s economy comes from domestic consumption, so Indonesia is a huge <i>consuming</i> market.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>A unique tech sector in Asia</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia is both a young country (with an average age of 28) and a demographically advantaged country (the proportional size of the working population is still growing). Unlike China, which faces the upcoming challenges of an aging population, and India which must manage huge population growth, Indonesia has the dual tailwinds of healthy population growth rates and a steadily growing workforce.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia’s youthfulness also leads to a very active tech sector. Literally hundreds of startups have been formed over the past few years, with the pace of business formation accelerating from 2010 onwards. Many of the startups have a mobile focus, reflecting the mobile-first nature of Indonesia, with numerous others focused on social media, e-commerce, payment platforms, online advertising and B2B markets.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, the internet, mobile and media sectors are completely open. Unlike China, the government of Indonesia has rejected strong regulation of the internet sector, and as a result Facebook, Twitter, Google and Yahoo! are currently Indonesia’s most-visited sites. Indonesia is also fully open to direct foreign investment. The top mobile operators all have large foreign shareholders, and Rakuten (the world’s third largest e-commerce company, after Amazon and Taobao) and Rocket Internet of Germany have both invested heavily in building Indonesian e-commerce sites.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Investors in the tech sector therefore have a range of strategic options available to target Indonesia, from setting up their own venture in Indonesia, to forming a joint venture with an local Indonesian company, to investing in an Indonesian tech business, to targeting the Indonesian internet users from an overseas-based website.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But again, this is not the whole story.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What many have overlooked so far in the growth of Indonesia’s tech sector is the potential of the internet to transform the way things are done in Indonesia. Much of the focus of the startups in the past 2-3 years has (rightly) been in bringing online concepts from overseas into Indonesia: mobile messaging, daily deals, social networks, online payments, e-commerce, and so on.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, the real potential of the tech sector is in providing services that meet the specific needs of Indonesia’s growing consumer class. Improving the education of their children. Providing simpler ways to pay bills. Enabling them to make better choices for healthcare. Providing online shopping experiences that cater to the social nature of Indonesian culture. Making it easy for them to travel locally, and helping them satiate their increasing desire to make overseas trips.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So there is a major opportunity on the upside as the Indonesian tech sector moves from a perspective of seeking to localise overseas websites to one where it develops unique local solutions. Somewhat paradoxically, these local solutions will require overseas capital and expertise to bring in the skills and experience required to build large-scale online companies.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Huge rewards await those willing to invest capital and skills</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So we believe Indonesia has the potential to deliver two upside surprises:</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Firstly, the already-attractive forecasts of internet growth are likely to be exceeded as the rising wealth of over 100 million gadget-loving consumers coincides with falling technology prices.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Secondly, Indonesia’s young and growing population has the potential to revolutionise the way business is done in the country by leveraging the power of the internet: in effect, an entrepreneurial surprise on the upside.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Huge opportunities therefore exist in Indonesia for investors who see and understand these dynamics. What Indonesia needs from those investors are:</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">1. Investors who are prepared to invest not just in facilities and advertising, but also to invest in building the skills and expertise base in Indonesia. The tech sector in Indonesia does not need valleys, it needs bridges!</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">2. Investors who are willing to take a 3-5 year initial time perspective, and see the benefits of investing in Indonesia for the long term.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">3. Investors who are prepared to work closely with local entrepreneurs to understand local needs and to fund the development of solutions relevant to this huge market.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The end-game prize will be to get in at the ground floor of the internet revolution in the world’s fourth-largest country by population, and an opportunity to establish a beachhead as Indonesia moves to becoming one of the world’s largest economies.</p>\n\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: World Bank, IMF, UN, Brookings Institute, Forbes, Frost &amp; Sullivan, IDC, ITU, Business Monitor International, McKinsey Global Institute, Social Bakers, Semiocast, MarkPlus</h6>','Why invest in the Indonesian tech sector?','','trash','open','open','','why-indonesia','','','2013-09-08 15:31:36','2013-09-08 15:31:36','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=545',0,'page','',0),(748,1,'2013-02-26 04:54:13','2013-02-26 04:54:13','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1511\" alt=\"Page - Investors - Types of investors graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Investors-Types-of-investors-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"270\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">As the Indonesian tech sector matures, investors are increasingly specialising in specific stages of startup funding. While seed funding and early-stage funds have seen the most activity to date, significant pent-up demand exists from the local conglomerates, foreign funds and foreign tech companies to make larger-scale acquisitions. This pent-up demand is beginning to drive increased scale and efficiency throughout the funding process.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>A broad range of investors that fall into five distinct categories</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Over the past three years the Indonesian tech sector has seen over 25 deals of significance, plus the small-scale funding of hundreds of more speculative startups. An impressively broad array of investors has funded these ventures, which we categorise in five distinct groups:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li>Early-stage funds (incubators, angels and seed funds, which can be local or foreign)</li>\r\n	<li>Growth-stage funds (local or foreign)</li>\r\n	<li>Foreign .coms and technology companies (primarily from Japan, the US and Europe)</li>\r\n	<li>Local corporates and conglomerates</li>\r\n	<li>Local mobile operators</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Differing priorities and risk profiles lead each group to prefer different points in the startup lifecycle when they like to invest, and also lead to different appetites for the size of investment:</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-777 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Investors - Types of investors categories 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Investors-Types-of-investors-categories-2.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"356\" /></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, some groups (for example GDP Ventures) have spread themselves across more than one category by setting up a primary investment fund and a complementary incubator.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>How each investor group has performed to date in Indonesia</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Around ten <b><i>accelerators and incubators</i></b> are active in Indonesia, focused on providing tech entrepreneurs with startup mentoring and sometimes also offering low-cost office and technology facilities. The ‘tied’ incubators (those associated with a growth-stage fund) used to be more active than the independent incubators, but in 2012 the independents began to increase their activity level, as their critical role in moving inexperienced entrepreneurs to the later funding stages became better appreciated by early-stage and growth-stage funds.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <b><i>early-stage funds</i></b> have been very active for the past three years, led by East Ventures which has made 18 investments in Indonesia. This is currently the sweet spot for investing in the Indonesian tech sector, which reflects the relatively early stage of the industry</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <b><i>growth-stage funds</i></b> are looking for tech firms with an existing track record and who are seeking funding to expand an already-proven service offering. Only a handful of tech companies fit this profile at the moment, so the activity level of the growth-stage funds is relatively low. It will pick up significantly over the next two years as the early-stage funds seek to move their investments into Series B and Series C funding rounds.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The early-stage and growth-stage funds are mainly headquartered in Indonesia, Singapore and Japan.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <b><i>foreign .coms and technology companies</i></b> take one of three investment approaches: they form a JV with a local Indonesian company, they acquire an existing tech company, or they invest directly into their own local subsidiary by bringing in expat executives and hiring local employees. Investments by Yahoo, Groupon and LivingSocial have underperformed (although the underperformance has been more on the side of the acquirers rather than the Indonesian companies), while later investments by Google, eBay, Rocket Internet and a number of Japanese tech companies are still in their early stages.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <b><i>local corporates and conglomerates</i></b> who have been active to date have mainly been media companies, and have tended to make 100% acquisitions of relatively mature internet properties. Their acquisitions have largely been successful to date, enabling them to expand into digital media and defend against future competition. Note also that a number of Indonesian conglomerates have set up their own incubators and early-stage funds to explore opportunities with younger startups.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <em><strong>mobile operators</strong></em> have started a variety of incubator and accelerator initiatives, using these as a way to discover new talent. But the greater part of their resources has focused on expanding their own service platforms and billing systems to enable tech companies to deliver services to the mobile customer base. So it is important to understand while the operators are not the largest direct investors in the tech sector, in the Indonesian market they are amongst the most powerful influences that affect where startup opportunities exist.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Staged investments leading to successful exits are possible</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The standard investment route for startups is now in place in Indonesia, with a number of companies in the process of moving through the stages of Seed → Series A → Series B → Exit acquisition. East Ventures has been the most successful investor to date, having achieved exits via the sale of Disdus to Groupon and Urbanesia to Kompas, as well as bringing later-stage investors into Tokopedia.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This staged process will only expand over the coming years, both in scale and speed, in response to the demand from larger investors for large-scale acquisitions. The Indonesian conglomerates have woken up to the opportunities in the internet sector, as have the foreign tech companies, the Japanese in particular. As the tech sector as a whole continues to mature, Indonesia will develop a smoother and larger-scale process to take young startups up to scale and eventual exit.</p>\r\n\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Wall Street Journal Asia, Jakarta Globe, e27, Daily Social, TechInAsia, TheNextWeb, sge, TechCrunch, East Ventures, Telkomsel, Yahoo, MNC</h6>','Types of investors in the Indonesian tech sector','','trash','open','closed','','types-of-investors','','','2013-09-08 15:31:35','2013-09-08 15:31:35','',21,'http://redwingconsulting.com/?page_id=748',0,'page','',0),(1065,1,'2013-03-03 09:34:45','2013-03-03 09:34:45','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1565\" alt=\"Page - Context - Internet industry structure graphic 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Internet-industry-structure-graphic-2.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"250\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">While the top 5 Indonesian websites are still dominated by the global internet players, local sites in the categories of news, community-based services, e-commerce and entertainment continue to rise up the rankings.

None of the major department stores, grocers or specialty retailers have yet gone online in a big way, which many believe is due to their heavy investments in malls and outlets and their belief that online retailing does not yet pose a severe threat.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5>A number of support platforms have emerged</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Obviously a critical part of the internet industry is finding sustainable ways to monetise online services, in particular e-commerce sites. A number of payment platforms are competing to establish themselves as the industry leaders, and KlikBCA, Mandiri, Doku, iPayMu, Veritrans, Jatis and Kaspay have all established themselves to varying degrees in different parts of the online payment market.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The other main monetisation route is through advertising. Online ads are delivered through the major platforms such as Facebook, Google and Twitter, with Google pushing hard to promote its Adsense and Adwords programs among local businesses. Also, since Indonesia is a mobile-first market, the major mobile advertising platforms are very active in Indonesia, including Opera, InMobi, AdMob, BuzzCity and MobPartner. Ad impression volumes are extremely high - InMobi alone is now delivering more than 30 billion mobile ads per quarter.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But one of the exciting things about Indonesia is that traditional online payment methods and mobile advertising both miss large parts of the market. Of the 240 million people in Indonesia, only 15 million have credit cards and 60 million have debit cards. So there is a huge swathe of users who are potential revenue-generators for internet companies, but who can\'t easily be reached with the usual payment platforms.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As a result, a number of innovative online payment methods are likely to emerge that are particular to Indonesia, with potentially huge rewards for those who get the approach right.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5>Major players are coming in to the market</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A number of billion dollar technology companies have established Indonesian ventures in the past two years: notably Rakuten (Japan), Tencent (China), Rocket Internet (Germany) and Google (USA), each taking a slightly different approach to market entry.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, some of Indonesia\'s biggest companies such as Djarum, Bakrie, MNC, CT Corp and Kompas Gramedia Group have also begun operations.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yet despite the millions of dollars of investment funding that sits behind their ventures, it is not yet clear which of them will emerge as long-term winners.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Amazons, Taobaos, eBays, Facebooks, PayPals and Tencents of Indonesia are nowhere near to being anointed yet.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5></h5>\r\n<h6>Sources: Bank Indonesia, e27, Alexa, Daily Social.</h6>','Indonesia -

This shift will require a dramatic transformation of telecoms organizations in all markets around the world.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A critical part of that transformation will be turning the incredibly rich data assets owned by every telecoms operator into profitable revenue streams.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Building on over twenty years experience of helping telecoms operators to transform their businesses, Redwing brings a powerful market-driven context to the challenge of Big Data monetization, combining end-user analysis with deep insights into the value chains, partnerships and customer-facing processes that will be required to turn Big Data into a major future revenue stream.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We believe telecoms operators are the natural Big Data companies, and have the potential to combine data analytics with innovative business models in order to compete with - and even exceed - companies such as Google, Facebook and Amazon in this critical future business opportunity.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong> <span style=\"color: #993300;\">Yours,</span></strong></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">The Redwing Team</span></strong></p>','Welcome to Redwing Consulting\'s Big Data website!','','publish','closed','open','','welcome','','','2013-09-03 13:07:04','2013-09-03 13:07:04','',0,'http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/?p=1891',0,'post','',0),(1929,1,'2013-03-14 13:54:43','2013-03-14 13:54:43','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1932\" alt=\"Post - Why invest in indonesia graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-Why-invest-in-indonesia-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Humbler and quieter than the flashier economic stars of China and India, Indonesia offers spectacular opportunities for tech investors wanting to get in on the ground level of an economy that is expected to exceed the size of Germany and the UK within two decades. Indonesia is already one of the world’s top five markets in mobile subscribers, Facebook users, Twitter users and mobile ads, yet we still believe it can deliver a number of surprises on the upside. And with a burgeoning middle class and an average age of 28, its highly favourable long-term demographics mean that tech opportunities will abound.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Rapid growth driven by strong fundamentals</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By any measures, all the tech numbers for Indonesia look good: its base of 55 million internet users today (larger than Korea’s) will grow to 125 million users by 2015 (more than Japan’s). And in parallel with this expansion, everything from e-commerce to online media to B2B applications will grow rapidly.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This growth is driven by one of the world’s most vibrant mobile markets: Indonesia’s huge and growing mobile market now has 278 million subscribers, 15% of mobile users already have smartphones, and the mobile ad market delivered around 200 <i>billion</i> impressions last year, second only to the US. On top of this, Indonesia is in the top five countries for both Facebook and Twitter usage, as well as having the world’s most active Twitter city, Jakarta.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sitting behind all these numbers is a well-managed economy whose growth from 2012-2107 will only be exceeded by China among the world’s major economies. Indeed, over the past decade or so, the Indonesian economy has been so robust that it sailed through the 2008 financial crisis with barely a blip on growth.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But these numbers – while hugely positive in themselves – sit on top of a far more exciting story: Indonesia’s internet market is likely to offer some of the biggest opportunities for tech investors in Asia over the coming decade.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>A huge consumer market with step-change growth spurts</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia’s middle-class is already big, and it\'s booming. It will double over the next seven years to 85 million people, and by 2030 there will be 135 million middle-class consumers. At that point, Indonesia’s economy will be the 7th largest in the world, exceeding the economies of both Germany and the UK.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And to put the size of today\'s Indonesia into perspective, its dynamic, fast-growing capital Jakarta has a population and GDP equivalent to that of the whole of Malaysia.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But this expansion of the middle-class is only half the story – the other half is technology affordability. Indonesia is a young, tech-savvy nation, full of people who are extremely enthusiastic to own and use the latest gadgets and technologies. The main barrier to ownership is not interest or desire, it is price.</p>\r\n<a title=\"Why invest in the Indonesian tech sector?\" href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/why-indonesia/\">[Read the full piece]</a>','Why invest in Indonesia?','','trash','closed','open','','why-invest-in-indonesia','','\nhttp://redwing-asia.com/why-indonesia/','2013-09-03 12:37:11','2013-09-03 12:37:11','',0,'http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/?p=1929',0,'post','',0),(1940,1,'2013-03-04 14:26:59','2013-03-04 14:26:59','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1942\" alt=\"Post - investment environment graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-investment-environment-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia\'s tech sector had a frothy 2010 and 2011, but many startups realised in 2012 that trying to monetise eyeballs and clicks is a tough route to profitability. Armed with a new perspective, the sector is now more focused on sustainable business models and delivering breakout value to customers. As the investment environment also matures, multiple opportunities will emerge for investors willing to be flexible in terms of investment structures, and who are prepared to put in business expertise on top of their capital.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>The initial hype phase is over…now it’s time to get serious</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like the early days of the Silicon Valley tech boom in the 1990s, the Indonesian tech sector’s first act was characterised by a oversupply of hype and an undersupply of good solid business models. Too many startups placed their faith in being able to monetise a large user base at some unspecified point in the future, and as it became clear during 2011 and 2012 that eyeballs and clicks might not be enough, a Darwinian shakeout took place.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This was a very good thing.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia now has a much healthier tech sector, led by a number of rapidly-growing online companies who have clearly defined their target segments and who have begun to demonstrate a real ability to make money. Following along behind them is the second generation of Indonesian startups – more focused, more realistic, and far more fixated on delivering services which add real value to the offline and online lives of consumers and businesses.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And as the startups change, so do the investors who fund them. Gone are the days of throwing a hundred thousand dollars at a Groupon clone in the hope that it will pick up enough percentage points of market share to flip to a competitor and exit. In its place is an ecosystem of angel funders, incubators, early-stage funds, mid-stage funds and technology providers who are helping to enhance the technical, marketing and business skills of the tech entrepreneurs so that they can build companies that can thrive and scale.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The next three years will be very exciting times in Indonesia. Customer bases will grow. E-commerce will start to boom. Online payment options will multiply. Unique local online services will emerge. Underpinning all this will be a more methodical approach to managing the startups, driven as much by the discipline of business metrics as by the thrill of new technologies.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Indonesian startups often need active investors</b></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The top Indonesian sites today have market values of around US$100 million. While billion-dollar internet companies do not yet exist in Indonesia, more $100m tech companies will emerge over the next three years. These valuations will partly be due to the rising user base (internet users will grow from 55m today to 125m by 2015), partly due to higher levels of online spending by the growing Indonesian middle class, and partly due to improved business focus and discipline.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But the raw fact is that this is an investment market in the relatively early days of its development. Today there are a few hundred Indonesian startups, many of which are still two guys in a garage (or, increasingly often, in a shared incubator office). Apart from a handful of companies which are looking for expansion capital, most startups need mentoring, marketing assistance and help making connections as much as they need investment money: the Indonesian tech sector is still in capacity-building mode.</p>\r\n<a title=\"Investment environment\" href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/investors/investment-environment/\">[Read the full piece]</a>','What\'s it like to invest in the Indonesia tech sector?','','trash','closed','open','','the-investment-environment-in-indonesia-tech','','','2013-09-03 12:37:12','2013-09-03 12:37:12','',0,'http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/?p=1940',0,'post','',0),(1948,1,'2013-03-12 14:33:56','2013-03-12 14:33:56','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1950\" alt=\"Post - startup environment graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-startup-environment-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like other tech sectors around the world, Indonesia has already been through a number of phases of hype, boom and realism. At the moment it\'s in a realism phase, with a number of larger investors entering the market to build companies which can take advantage of long-term growth trends. In parallel with this, the Indonesian tech ecosystem continues to mature, with incubators, startup communities, tech news sites and regular business plan competitions all serving to raise the level of capability among the tech entrepreneurs.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A rapidly-maturing sector with three distinct types of startups</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tech sector in Indonesia began a sustained growth drive in 2010, signalled by the formation of the first Indonesia-focused VCs and a significant rise in the volume of investment deals. With the formation of a number of startup incubators in 2011, plus greater sector awareness through online news sites such as Daily Social, TechInAsia and e27, a healthy ecosystem has been firmly established.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Startups in Indonesia come into being through four distinct routes:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li><strong>Independent incubation</strong>: independent incubators such as Ideosource, Batavia and InvestIdea provide a mix of funding, mentoring and facilities to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into potential businesses.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li><strong>Corporate incubation</strong>: incubators tied to larger companies or funds (examples are Grupara/Medco, MerahPutih/GDP Ventures and Mega Media/Indosat) all provide startups with similar services to the independent incubators, but with a potential route into a larger funding entity within the same group.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li><strong>Bootstrapping</strong>: self-sufficient founders can pull together the right mix of skills and initial funding themselves. Typically the founders will be:</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Entrepreneurs on their second or third Indonesian startup (increasingly common these days)</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Indonesians returning home after studying and working abroad</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Local graduates who want to try something outside the corporate life</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Foreigners who come to Indonesia and discover a tech opportunity</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Foreigners with an overseas website who find that many of their early users are from Indonesia</p>\r\n\r\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n	<li><strong>Well-funded startups</strong>: these take a variety of forms, from startups begun by investment funds (eg Blibli/GDP Ventures), startups begun as an Indonesian/foreign JV (eg Rakuten Belanja), startups begun by Indonesian corporates launching digital businesses (eg Gramediana/Kompas), or startups funded by foreign investors (eg Lazada).</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A common view among investors is that one of the most difficult challenges in tech investing in Indonesia is finding the right skills and experience in both the technical and commercial managers of the business. This perceived shortage of skilled resources has directly led to the formation of the numerous incubators in Indonesia, and has also motivated local corporates to form joint ventures with foreign internet companies rather than trying to build their own technology platforms.</p>\r\n<a title=\"Startup environment\" href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/startups/startup-environment/\">[Read the full piece]</a>','The startup environment in Indonesia','','trash','closed','open','','the-startup-environment-in-indonesia','','','2013-09-03 12:37:12','2013-09-03 12:37:12','',0,'http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/?p=1948',0,'post','',0),(1958,1,'2013-03-08 14:44:26','2013-03-08 14:44:26','<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1960\" alt=\"Post - foreign investors graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-foreign-investors-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" />\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia does not restrict foreign investment into the tech sector, so foreign investors have a range of options in investment structures. The most common investment strategies to date have been forming a JV with a local Indonesian company, acquiring an existing tech company, or opening a local subsidiary then hiring local employees (and sometimes bringing in overseas executives too). The foreign investors have brought both capital and skills, with investors to date coming from the US, Japan, China, Korea and Europe.</h4>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Indonesia has already seen two foreign investment waves\r\n</strong></h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first wave of foreign investment, in 2010 and 2011, was fundamentally a land-grab. Indonesia experienced a mini internet boom as Yahoo, Groupon and DailySocial all made high-profile acquisitions. There was a single primary goal: to buy the leading Indonesian internet companies before someone else got their hands on them.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second wave has been more about establishing a long-term presence in the Indonesian market, rather than making outright acquisitions. The majority of transactions have been undertaken by Japanese and Chinese investors, who have tended to take a joint venture approach. However, the largest investment has come from Europe, in the shape of Rocket Internet and its six online ventures.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5>The first wave: Yahoo, daily deals, and more</h5>\r\n<img alt=\"Koprol-Yahoo logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Koprol-Yahoo-logo.jpg\" width=\"109\" height=\"30\" />   <img alt=\"Groupon Disdus logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Groupon-Disdus-logo.png\" width=\"74\" height=\"31\" />   <img alt=\"DealKeren logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/DealKeren-logo.png\" width=\"90\" height=\"30\" />  <img alt=\"Rumah123 logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Rumah123-logo.png\" width=\"154\" height=\"29\" />\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With Yahoo\'s surprise purchase of location-based service Koprol in 2010, Indonesia was suddenly on the tech world\'s map. Next, a daily deals frenzy broke out, with Groupon and LivingSocial both buying the leading Indonesian companies in 2011. Somewhat overshadowed by all this, a bidding war also went on for the leading property portals, with the top three all being acquired within a space of four months.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike many frenzies, where the common end result is buyer\'s remorse, a number of these acquisitions led to seller\'s remorse. The daily deals market globally took a swoon, while Yahoo was having its own internal problems, so the Koprol, Disdus and DealKeren deals have not yet fulfilled their obvious potential in Indonesia. Conversely, the property portals are thriving, and reporting healthy growth rates in line with the booming internet sector.</p>\r\n\r\n<h5>The second wave: establishing a beach-head</h5>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Going in to 2012, a consensus emerged among the foreign investors: Indonesia is a market where the rewards come to those who commit to the long-term development of the internet sector, but it is not a hit-and-run market. As part of broader long-term regional strategies, Google opened an office in Jakarta, Rocket Internet launched a number of e-commerce ventures, and the Japanese investor funds became significantly more active.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a title=\"Foreign investors\" href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/investors/foreign-investors/\">[Read the full piece]</a></p>\r\n&nbsp;','The most influential foreign investors in Indonesia tech','','trash','closed','open','','the-largest-foreign-investors-in-indonesia-tech','','','2013-09-03 12:37:12','2013-09-03 12:37:12','',0,'http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/?p=1958',0,'post','',0),(1993,1,'2013-03-15 08:51:46','2013-03-15 08:51:46','','Icon - email','','inherit','open','closed','','icon-email','','','2013-03-15 08:51:46','2013-03-15 08:51:46','',34,'http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Icon-email.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(1994,1,'2013-03-15 08:53:38','2013-03-15 08:53:38','','Icon - address','','inherit','open','closed','','icon-address','','','2013-03-15 08:53:38','2013-03-15 08:53:38','',34,'http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Icon-address.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(1995,1,'2013-03-15 08:54:25','2013-03-15 08:54:25','','Icon - phone','','inherit','open','closed','','icon-phone','','','2013-03-15 08:54:25','2013-03-15 08:54:25','',34,'http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Icon-phone.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(2013,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08','','About<br>Us','About Redwing Consulting','publish','open','open','','about-us','','','2013-09-12 16:55:28','2013-09-12 16:55:28','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/about-us/',6,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2014,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08','','<br>Contact','Contact Redwing Consulting','publish','open','open','','contact-us','','','2013-09-12 16:55:28','2013-09-12 16:55:28','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/contact-us/',7,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2016,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08','','Contact us','','publish','open','open','','contact-us-2','','','2013-09-03 15:58:18','2013-09-03 15:58:18','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/contact-us-2/',3,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2017,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08','','About us','','publish','open','open','','about-us-2','','','2013-09-03 15:58:18','2013-09-03 15:58:18','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/about-us-2/',2,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2018,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08','','Our services','','publish','open','open','','client-services','','','2013-09-03 15:58:18','2013-09-03 15:58:18','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/client-services/',1,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2020,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08',' ','','','publish','open','open','','privacy-policy','','','2013-09-03 16:21:20','2013-09-03 16:21:20','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/privacy-policy/',1,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2021,1,'2013-03-17 05:21:08','2013-03-17 05:21:08',' ','','','publish','open','open','','terms-and-conditions','','','2013-09-03 16:21:20','2013-09-03 16:21:20','',0,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/terms-and-conditions/',2,'nav_menu_item','',0),(2040,1,'2013-03-14 13:54:43','2013-03-14 13:54:43','<a href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/investor-posts/why-invest-in-the-indonesian-tech-sector/attachment/post-why-invest-in-indonesia-graphic/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1932\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1932\" alt=\"Post - Why invest in indonesia graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-Why-invest-in-indonesia-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" /></a>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Humbler and quieter than the flashier economic stars of China and India, Indonesia offers spectacular opportunities for tech investors wanting to get in on the ground level of an economy that is expected to exceed the size of Germany and the UK within two decades.

At that point, Indonesia’s economy will be the 7th largest in the world, exceeding the economies of both Germany and the UK.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And to put the size of today\'s Indonesia into perspective, its dynamic, fast-growing capital Jakarta has a population and GDP equivalent to that of the whole of Malaysia.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But this expansion of the middle-class is only half the story – the other half is technology affordability. Indonesia is a young, tech-savvy nation, full of people who are extremely enthusiastic to own and use the latest gadgets and technologies. The main barrier to ownership is not interest or desire, it is price.</p>\n<a title=\"Why invest in the Indonesian tech sector?\" href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/why-indonesia/\">[Read the full piece]</a>','Why invest in Indonesia?','','inherit','open','open','','1929-revision','','','2013-03-14 13:54:43','2013-03-14 13:54:43','',1929,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/1929-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2041,1,'2013-03-12 14:33:56','2013-03-12 14:33:56','<a href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/startup-posts/the-startup-environment-in-indonesia/attachment/post-startup-environment-graphic/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1950\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1950\" alt=\"Post - startup environment graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-startup-environment-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" /></a>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like other tech sectors around the world, Indonesia has already been through a number of phases of hype, boom and realism. At the moment it\'s in a realism phase, with a number of larger investors entering the market to build companies which can take advantage of long-term growth trends. In parallel with this, the Indonesian tech ecosystem continues to mature, with incubators, startup communities, tech news sites and regular business plan competitions all serving to raise the level of capability among the tech entrepreneurs.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A rapidly-maturing sector with three distinct types of startups</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tech sector in Indonesia began a sustained growth drive in 2010, signalled by the formation of the first Indonesia-focused VCs and a significant rise in the volume of investment deals. With the formation of a number of startup incubators in 2011, plus greater sector awareness through online news sites such as Daily Social, TechInAsia and e27, a healthy ecosystem has been firmly established.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Startups in Indonesia come into being through four distinct routes:</p>\n\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n	<li><strong>Independent incubation</strong>: independent incubators such as Ideosource, Batavia and InvestIdea provide a mix of funding, mentoring and facilities to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into potential businesses.</li>\n</ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n	<li><strong>Corporate incubation</strong>: incubators tied to larger companies or funds (examples are Grupara/Medco, MerahPutih/GDP Ventures and Mega Media/Indosat) all provide startups with similar services to the independent incubators, but with a potential route into a larger funding entity within the same group.</li>\n</ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n	<li><strong>Bootstrapping</strong>: self-sufficient founders can pull together the right mix of skills and initial funding themselves. Typically the founders will be:</li>\n</ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Entrepreneurs on their second or third Indonesian startup (increasingly common these days)</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Indonesians returning home after studying and working abroad</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Local graduates who want to try something outside the corporate life</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Foreigners who come to Indonesia and discover a tech opportunity</p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: justify;\">- Foreigners with an overseas website who find that many of their early users are from Indonesia</p>\n\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n	<li><strong>Well-funded startups</strong>: these take a variety of forms, from startups begun by investment funds (eg Blibli/GDP Ventures), startups begun as an Indonesian/foreign JV (eg Rakuten Belanja), startups begun by Indonesian corporates launching digital businesses (eg Gramediana/Kompas), or startups funded by foreign investors (eg Lazada).</li>\n</ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A common view among investors is that one of the most difficult challenges in tech investing in Indonesia is finding the right skills and experience in both the technical and commercial managers of the business. This perceived shortage of skilled resources has directly led to the formation of the numerous incubators in Indonesia, and has also motivated local corporates to form joint ventures with foreign internet companies rather than trying to build their own technology platforms.</p>\n<a title=\"Startup environment\" href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/startups/startup-environment/\">[Read the full piece]</a>','The startup environment in Indonesia','','inherit','open','open','','1948-revision','','','2013-03-12 14:33:56','2013-03-12 14:33:56','',1948,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/1948-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2042,1,'2013-03-08 14:44:26','2013-03-08 14:44:26','<a href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/investor-posts/the-largest-foreign-investors-in-indonesia-tech/attachment/post-foreign-investors-graphic/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1960\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1960\" alt=\"Post - foreign investors graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-foreign-investors-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" /></a>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia does not restrict foreign investment into the tech sector, so foreign investors have a range of options in investment structures. The most common investment strategies to date have been forming a JV with a local Indonesian company, acquiring an existing tech company, or opening a local subsidiary then hiring local employees (and sometimes bringing in overseas executives too). The foreign investors have brought both capital and skills, with investors to date coming from the US, Japan, China, Korea and Europe.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Indonesia has already seen two foreign investment waves\n</strong></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first wave of foreign investment, in 2010 and 2011, was fundamentally a land-grab. Indonesia experienced a mini internet boom as Yahoo, Groupon and DailySocial all made high-profile acquisitions. There was a single primary goal: to buy the leading Indonesian internet companies before someone else got their hands on them.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second wave has been more about establishing a long-term presence in the Indonesian market, rather than making outright acquisitions. The majority of transactions have been undertaken by Japanese and Chinese investors, who have tended to take a joint venture approach. However, the largest investment has come from Europe, in the shape of Rocket Internet and its six online ventures.</p>\n\n<h5>The first wave: Yahoo, daily deals, and more</h5>\n<img alt=\"Koprol-Yahoo logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Koprol-Yahoo-logo.jpg\" width=\"109\" height=\"30\" />   <img alt=\"Groupon Disdus logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Groupon-Disdus-logo.png\" width=\"74\" height=\"31\" />   <img alt=\"DealKeren logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/DealKeren-logo.png\" width=\"90\" height=\"30\" />  <a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/investors/foreign-investor/attachment/rumah123-logo/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-789\"><img alt=\"Rumah123 logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Rumah123-logo.png\" width=\"154\" height=\"29\" /></a>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With Yahoo\'s surprise purchase of location-based service Koprol in 2010, Indonesia was suddenly on the tech world\'s map. Next, a daily deals frenzy broke out, with Groupon and LivingSocial both buying the leading Indonesian companies in 2011. Somewhat overshadowed by all this, a bidding war also went on for the leading property portals, with the top three all being acquired within a space of four months.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike many frenzies, where the common end result is buyer\'s remorse, a number of these acquisitions led to seller\'s remorse. The daily deals market globally took a swoon, while Yahoo was having its own internal problems, so the Koprol, Disdus and DealKeren deals have not yet fulfilled their obvious potential in Indonesia. Conversely, the property portals are thriving, and reporting healthy growth rates in line with the booming internet sector.</p>\n\n<h5>The second wave: establishing a beach-head</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Going in to 2012, a consensus emerged among the foreign investors: Indonesia is a market where the rewards come to those who commit to the long-term development of the internet sector, but it is not a hit-and-run market. As part of broader long-term regional strategies, Google opened an office in Jakarta, Rocket Internet launched a number of e-commerce ventures, and the Japanese investor funds became significantly more active.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a title=\"Foreign investors\" href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/investors/foreign-investors/\">[Read the full piece]</a></p>\n&nbsp;','The most influential foreign investors in Indonesia tech','','inherit','open','open','','1958-revision','','','2013-03-08 14:44:26','2013-03-08 14:44:26','',1958,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/1958-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2043,1,'2013-03-04 14:26:59','2013-03-04 14:26:59','<a href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/investor-posts/the-investment-environment-in-indonesia-tech/attachment/post-investment-environment-graphic/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1942\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1942\" alt=\"Post - investment environment graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-investment-environment-graphic.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" /></a>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia\'s tech sector had a frothy 2010 and 2011, but many startups realised in 2012 that trying to monetise eyeballs and clicks is a tough route to profitability. Armed with a new perspective, the sector is now more focused on sustainable business models and delivering breakout value to customers. As the investment environment also matures, multiple opportunities will emerge for investors willing to be flexible in terms of investment structures, and who are prepared to put in business expertise on top of their capital.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>The initial hype phase is over…now it’s time to get serious</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like the early days of the Silicon Valley tech boom in the 1990s, the Indonesian tech sector’s first act was characterised by a oversupply of hype and an undersupply of good solid business models. Too many startups placed their faith in being able to monetise a large user base at some unspecified point in the future, and as it became clear during 2011 and 2012 that eyeballs and clicks might not be enough, a Darwinian shakeout took place.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This was a very good thing.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Indonesia now has a much healthier tech sector, led by a number of rapidly-growing online companies who have clearly defined their target segments and who have begun to demonstrate a real ability to make money. Following along behind them is the second generation of Indonesian startups – more focused, more realistic, and far more fixated on delivering services which add real value to the offline and online lives of consumers and businesses.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And as the startups change, so do the investors who fund them. Gone are the days of throwing a hundred thousand dollars at a Groupon clone in the hope that it will pick up enough percentage points of market share to flip to a competitor and exit. In its place is an ecosystem of angel funders, incubators, early-stage funds, mid-stage funds and technology providers who are helping to enhance the technical, marketing and business skills of the tech entrepreneurs so that they can build companies that can thrive and scale.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The next three years will be very exciting times in Indonesia. Customer bases will grow. E-commerce will start to boom. Online payment options will multiply. Unique local online services will emerge. Underpinning all this will be a more methodical approach to managing the startups, driven as much by the discipline of business metrics as by the thrill of new technologies.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Indonesian startups often need active investors</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The top Indonesian sites today have market values of around US$100 million. While billion-dollar internet companies do not yet exist in Indonesia, more $100m tech companies will emerge over the next three years. These valuations will partly be due to the rising user base (internet users will grow from 55m today to 125m by 2015), partly due to higher levels of online spending by the growing Indonesian middle class, and partly due to improved business focus and discipline.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But the raw fact is that this is an investment market in the relatively early days of its development. Today there are a few hundred Indonesian startups, many of which are still two guys in a garage (or, increasingly often, in a shared incubator office). Apart from a handful of companies which are looking for expansion capital, most startups need mentoring, marketing assistance and help making connections as much as they need investment money: the Indonesian tech sector is still in capacity-building mode.</p>\n<a title=\"Investment environment\" href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/investors/investment-environment/\">[Read the full piece]</a>','What\'s it like to invest in the Indonesia tech sector?','','inherit','open','open','','1940-revision','','','2013-03-04 14:26:59','2013-03-04 14:26:59','',1940,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/1940-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2044,1,'2013-03-01 09:43:00','2013-03-01 09:43:00','<a href=\"http://stage.redwingconsulting.com/general-posts/welcome-to-redwingconsultings-website/attachment/post-welcome-to-our-new-site-graphic-2/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1976\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1976\" alt=\"Post - welcome to our new site graphic 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Post-welcome-to-our-new-site-graphic-2.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"180\" /></a>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Welcome to Redwing\'s new website.</span></strong></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We built it because an increasing number of investors and tech companies have been approaching us recently seeking an in-depth understanding of the tech sector in Indonesia.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We realised that a broad, market-based perspective is not easy for investors to construct due to the fast-changing nature of the sector and the difficulty of sorting the wheat from the chaff if you\'re outside Indonesia.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We also realised that the incredible potential of Indonesia\'s tech sector will be achieved far more quickly if more overseas investors enter the market to bring an extra dimension to the many talented startups being formed.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As we say, \"Indonesia needs bridges, not valleys.\"</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So this website is our contribution to the bridge-building effort.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We will be updating it frequently with analyses, articles and opinion pieces.

But with companies such as Google actively trying to bring them online through nationwide education programs, and with multiple e-commerce providers actively courting them, a rapid expansion is underway.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The model most likely to be followed is the Chinese one, where sites such as Alibaba, Taobao and TMall have played a major role in facilitating the smaller companies to come online, while catering to the different needs of established and work-at-home traders.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">E-commerce in Indonesia will also need to include a very strong social component, reflecting the existing habits of Indonesian shoppers.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So the winners will be those who can make it so ridiculously easy to get an online shop running online that the SMBs can overcome their general lack of technology expertise, while showing the users how buying online can be fun, sociable, safe and cheap.</p>\n\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Bank Indonesia, AKKI, APJII, Frosy &amp; Sullivan, Bloomberg, US AID, Veritrans, Google, Menegkominfo.</h6>','E-commerce','','inherit','open','open','','303-autosave','','','2013-03-31 05:50:01','2013-03-31 05:50:01','',303,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/303-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(2049,1,'2013-01-27 04:33:11','2013-01-27 04:33:11','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/market-data/attachment/page-market-data-title-strip/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1182\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1182\" alt=\"Page -

It is also in the world’s top ten 3G markets, with broadband users skipping fixed connections and going straight to mobile (just as they did before with voice telephony). The rapid move to smartphones means the mobile operators are also key players in the internet sector, though note that 2.5G mobile technology is still remarkably widespread. Fixed broadband lines only feature at the top of the market, targeted at businesses and high-end consumers.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>One of the world’s largest mobile markets</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Indonesian telecoms sector is first and foremost a mobile market, and the 278m mobile subscribers completely overshadow the 9m fixed lines and 12m fixed-wireless subscribers. So any discussion of telecoms in Indonesia inevitably has a primary focus on mobile.</p>\nAt a headline level, the Indonesian mobile market is characterised by:\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n	<li>Prepaid (98% of subscribers are prepaid users)</li>\n	<li>A huge data market (115m data users in 2012)</li>\n	<li>Rising data revenues (already over 30% of the average user’s spend)</li>\n	<li>High volumes of messaging and mobile ads</li>\n</ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Growth was rapid throughout the 2000s, with the subscriber base growing at an average of 37% per year from 2005. The market hit its saturation point in 2010 as penetration hit 100%, and as a result growth slowed down to 12% in 2011 and 2012.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While underlying growth is forecast to continue in mobile (130% penetration - 330m mobile subscribers - is the consensus forecast for 2015), the main focus of the mobile operators is now to drive the growth of data subscribers and the associated data revenues.</p>\n<img class=\"size-full wp-image-1459 aligncenter\" alt=\"Page - Market data - Telecoms graphic\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Market-data-Telecoms-graphic.png\" width=\"650\" height=\"371\" />\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Having shown you the big numbers, we should also add a caveat: one of the unusual characteristics of Indonesia’s mobile market is the ubiquity of multiple SIMs. Many subscribers hold two or three <em>active</em> SIM cards - and often own two or three phones. People do this in order to find the best signal quality (for higher end subscribers) or the cheapest prices (for lower end subscribers). So the number of unique users in Indonesia is actually around 165m, which means on average each user holds 1.7 active SIM cards.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Rapid shift to smartphones and 3G</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While Blackberrys have long been extremely popular (Indonesia was Blackberry’s third biggest market in 2012, after the US and UK), smartphone growth really took off in 2010 as the price of Android smartphones fell below US$200.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Growth since 2010 has been rapid, and at the end of 2012 there were 33m smartphones in Indonesia, representing 15% of all handsets. We believe this will grow quickly over the next three years, since by early 2013 the price of the cheapest Android smartphone in the market had already fallen to Rp. 499,000 (US$51), which is easily affordable for many Indonesians from the C social class (and is within reach of even the Ds). Note that the mobile operators do not subsidise handsets like they typically do in the US and Europe.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By 2015, the consensus forecast is that smartphones will represent around 40% of all handsets. This means around 75m smartphones will be bought in Indonesia in the next three years. (And at this point we would like to note that pretty much every smartphone forecast around the world over the past three years has been an under-estimate).</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 3G services market is already sizeable, and was ranked the 10th largest in the world in 2011. The mobile operators are pushing data services very strongly, backed up with huge advertising budgets, and helped along by falling device and subscription prices. All the big three operators – Telkomsel, Indosat and XL – have stated that stimulating growth in data services is now their top market priority.</p>\n\n<h5><b style=\"text-align: justify;\">But feature phones and 2.5G still matter, and both are full of innovations</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although smartphones are growing rapidly, feature phones will still dominate the installed base for the coming five years. There are currently 180m active feature phones in Indonesia, and by 2015 there will still be 140m feature phone users.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These phones are usually connected to the internet via slower 2.5G connections, and use simple browsers such as Opera Mini. However, it would be a mistake to think these users are unsophisticated. It is simply fascinating to watch a salesperson from one of the hundreds of stalls in Jakarta’s Mangga Dua electronics mall take a thirty dollar feature phone and within minutes have it running Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp while also providing the owner with the capability to surf the web from anywhere with a mobile signal.</p>\n\n<h5><b style=\"text-align: justify;\">The fixed network serves the top end of the market</b></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The number of fixed connections in Indonesia has slowly risen from around 9.7m lines in 2005 to nearly 11m lines in 2012. Customers are primarily businesses and institutions, concentrated in the major cities, who use fixed lines to obtain the high broadband data speeds required to run their organisations.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fixed wireless connections grew in the late 2000s as part of efforts by Telkom and Indosat to increase fixed line penetration in outlying geographies, and peaked at 18.7m users in 2010. This technology is now in a slow decline as customers move over to a full mobile service, and had around 14m customers by the end of 2012.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ultimately, the fixed line market will stay relatively small in Indonesia, though it will be lucrative since this is where the high-revenue customers congregate. It is a segment where tech startups can thrive, especially in the B2B sector, but the headline action will remain in the mass mobile consumer market.</p>\n\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sources: Telkomsel, Indosat, XL, Hutchison, SmartFren, Axis, Esia, Telkom, Reuters, CTIA, Kleiner Perkins Caufield &amp; Byers, Informa, Research and Markets, IEMR, IDC, Pyramid Research, Frost &amp; Sullivan, mig33</h6>','Indonesia\'s telecoms market','','inherit','open','open','','265-revision','','','2013-02-13 07:23:21','2013-02-13 07:23:21','',265,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/265-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2069,1,'2013-01-26 04:50:25','2013-01-26 04:50:25','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/context/attachment/page-context-title-strip-3/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1149\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1149\" alt=\"Page - Context - Title strip 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Title-strip-3.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"40\" /></a></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This section provides a basic overview of how the Internet, ISP, Telecoms and Media industries are structured in Indonesia.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It describes the primary sectors of each industry, the main players, the basic dynamics which have caused the industry to reach its present form, and the trends which are shaping its future.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/context/internet-industry-structure/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1565\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1565\" alt=\"Page - Context - Internet industry structure graphic 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Internet-industry-structure-graphic-2.jpg\" width=\"323\" height=\"115\" /></a>     <a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/context/isp-industry-structure/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1570\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1570\" alt=\"Page - Context - Internet industry structure graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Internet-industry-structure-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"325\" height=\"116\" /></a></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/context/telecoms-industry-structure/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1573\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1573\" alt=\"Page - Context - Telecoms industry structure graphic 6\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Telecoms-industry-structure-graphic-6.jpg\" width=\"325\" height=\"125\" /></a>     <a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/context/media-industry-structure/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1575\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1575\" alt=\"Page - Context - Media industry structure graphic 3\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Context-Media-industry-structure-graphic-3.jpg\" width=\"325\" height=\"125\" /></a></p>','Context','','inherit','open','open','','17-revision','','','2013-01-26 04:50:25','2013-01-26 04:50:25','',17,'http://redwingconsulting.com/uncategorized/17-revision/',0,'revision','',0),(2070,1,'2013-03-17 07:00:48','2013-03-17 07:00:48','<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/investors/attachment/page-investors-title-strip/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1151\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1151\" alt=\"Page - Investors - Title strip\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Page-Investors-Title-strip.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"40\" /></a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This section details how investors have approached the Indonesian tech sector, in terms of their investment strategies, deals completed and the portfolios they have built in Indonesia.

The most common investment strategies to date have been forming a JV with a local Indonesian company, acquiring an existing tech company, or opening a local subsidiary then hiring local employees (and sometimes bringing in overseas executives too). The foreign investors have brought both capital and skills, with investors to date coming from the US, Japan, China, Korea and Europe.</h4>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Indonesia has already seen two waves of foreign investments.</strong></h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first wave of foreign investment, in 2010 and 2011, was fundamentally a land-grab. Indonesia experienced a mini internet boom as Yahoo, Groupon and DailySocial all made high-profile acquisitions. There was a single primary goal: to buy the leading Indonesian internet companies before someone else got their hands on them.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second wave has been more about establishing a long-term presence in the Indonesian market, rather than making outright acquisitions. The majority of transactions have been undertaken by Japanese and Chinese investors, who have tended to take a joint venture approach. However, the largest investment has come from Europe, in the shape of Rocket Internet and its six online ventures.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first wave: Yahoo, daily deals, and more</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-768\" alt=\"Koprol-Yahoo logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Koprol-Yahoo-logo.jpg\" width=\"147\" height=\"41\" />   <img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-907\" alt=\"Groupon Disdus logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Groupon-Disdus-logo.png\" width=\"99\" height=\"42\" />   <img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-790\" alt=\"DealKeren logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/DealKeren-logo.png\" width=\"125\" height=\"42\" />  <a href=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/investors/foreign-investor/attachment/rumah123-logo/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-789\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-789\" alt=\"Rumah123 logo\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Rumah123-logo.png\" width=\"169\" height=\"32\" /></a></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With Yahoo\'s surprise purchase of location-based service Koprol in 2010, Indonesia was suddenly on the tech world\'s map. Next, a daily deals frenzy broke out, with Groupon and LivingSocial both buying the leading Indonesian companies in 2011. Somewhat overshadowed by all this, a bidding war also went on for the leading property portals, with the top three all being acquired within a space of four months.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike many frenzies, where the common end result is buyer\'s remorse, a number of these acquisitions led to seller\'s remorse. The daily deals market globally took a swoon, while Yahoo was having its own internal problems, so the Koprol, Disdus and DealKeren deals have not yet fulfilled their obvious potential in Indonesia. Conversely, the property portals are thriving, and reporting healthy growth rates in line with the booming internet sector.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second wave: establishing a beach-head</h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Going in to 2012, a consensus emerged among the foreign investors: Indonesia is a market where the rewards come to those who commit to the long-term development of the internet sector, but it is not a hit-and-run market. As part of broader long-term regional strategies, Google opened an office in Jakarta, Rocket Internet launched a number of e-commerce ventures, and the Japanese investor funds became significantly more active.</p>\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The most influential foreign investors in the Indonesia tech sector currently:</h5>\n<table style=\"width: 700px;\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 160px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 165px;\"><img alt=\"Zalora Lazada logos 2\" src=\"http://redwingconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/Zalora-Lazada-logos-2.png\" width=\"160\" height=\"120\" /></td>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Germany\'s Rocket Internet calls itself a startup incubator, but few other incubators have US$ 90 million of funding behind them.  Armed with this warchest, Rocket has launched six ventures so far in Indonesia (and others in four other SE Asia countries), from e-commerce to food delivery to price comparison sites.
