Zulkarnain, who previously held the position of Country Marketing Manager at Google Indonesia for around 3,5 years, is now the Head of APAC Marketing for LinkedIn Sales Solutions, stationed in Singapore.

During his spell as Google’s Country Marketing Manager, Zulkarnain was highly active in a number of marketing campaigns. He really pushed to the limit, leading Google Indonesia to monetize from Google Adwords and increase the penetration of Android in Indonesia. The platform is currently the most popular one in the country, reaching a magnificent 60% of market share.

At LinkedIn, Zulkarnain will work on a wider scale, since he should now cover not only Indonesia, but also other Asia Pacific countries, including a number of superpowers like Japan, Hong Kong, India, and Australia.
