Discussing with partners from Patamar Capital, Venturra, and East Ventures
The expansion success story is one of the benchmarks for business growth; It's no wonder that many founders openly conveyed this ambition on various occasions. Starting from national, regional, then global expansion. In the Indonesian startup ecosystem, several players have enough courage to expand overseas. The level is still regional, trying to work on the market in Southeast Asian countries.
