Young Entrepreneur Series (YES) 2026
How the competition is judged The organisers name five things: the strength of the business idea, understanding of the market, commercial viability, capacity to execute, and potential impact. Two of those, capacity to execute and commercial viability, are easier to evidence from a venture that has already sold something than from an idea on a slide. The two categories are what let the same five questions be asked of both without one competing against the other. The programme ends with three awards: YES Champion, Best Idea, and Best Early Venture. What has not been announced The prizes. The organisers say the details of the awards and of what participants receive will be published on the programme's own site rather than in the launch announcement. The grand final has a month, January 2027, and no date. The judging is described by its criteria without saying how the five are weighted. Neither gap matters at the point of registering, but both are worth knowing before anybody plans a trip around the final.

Bali Tech Week 2026
What the four pillars mean Every session across the week maps to one of four pillars, so a delegate can read the programme by what they came for rather than by which stage it is on. Build is the technical track, AI infrastructure, engineering practice, product architecture. Capital is fundraising strategy, investor office hours and closed LP, GP conversations. Market is go-to-market, regional expansion and sector deep-dives. Policy is the regulatory outlook, and the one room where industry and government are both sitting down. The ten anchor events Why an umbrella week matters Indonesia's tech calendar has never had a single week that everybody plans around. Founders raise on one schedule, corporates buy on another, and the regulators who set the terms show up to neither. An umbrella week does not fix that by programming everything itself, it fixes it by putting ten separately curated events on the same island in the same five days, so one flight covers what used to take four. That is the bet Bali Tech Week is making, and it is why the week is worth the trip even for founders with no interest in eight of the ten events. Not sure whether the trip is worth it? We wrote up what the week is and who should go.

Simbiosis Bisnis 2026: Amplify
Who is speaking What you get out of a day there The programme Sessions run back to back from 09:30, and the questions taken at 16:30 are collected from the floor between 12:00 and 16:00 rather than asked live. About Makna Bisnis Makna Bisnis is an Indonesian business education company that teaches owner-operators through courses, mentoring and its own community. Simbiosis Bisnis is its annual conference, and the speakers it puts on stage are mostly people running businesses rather than people writing about them.

Event Organizer
We run corporate events in Jakarta. Grand openings, anniversaries, product launches, and the smaller gatherings and internal meetings that still have to go right. PT Kreasi Inovasi Bangsa started in 2017, and we've been doing this for brands ever since. Prices are published, so you pick from the catalogue instead of waiting three days for a quote. From there it's one flow: consultation, booking, e-invitations, RSVPs. All of it sits on our site and in your own dashboard, so you can check the headcount yourself at 11pm the night before. 300+ events. 30 venue partners.
