East Ventures on Instagram: "The digital economy promises inclusivity and equal economic opportunities for all Indonesians. In reality, rapid development only occurs in urban areas and several other cities with high technology early-adopters; and Indonesia is often times only assessed from the development of large cities like Jakarta, leaving other cities untouched. This has led to a digital divide between Indonesia's numerous islands as the largest archipelago in the world . Today, we released our first report named East Ventures - Digital Competitiveness Index (EV-DCI) 2020, as our contribution to the nation. We envision the entire country could enjoy the benefit of the digital revolution, by leaving no one behind. If everyone from Sabang to Merauke could participate in the building of digital economy, Indonesia could convert its demographic bonuses into demographic dividends; turning potential into reality . We are humbled to have shared this mission to Indonesia’s important leaders, Bahlil Lahadalia, Chairman of Indonesia Investment Coordinating Board, and Retno Marsudi, Minister for Foreign Affair of Indonesia. But we also encourage every stakeholders from industries, policy makers, and academias to contribute. The reports are available for everyone at east.vc/DCI . #eastventures #ev-dci"
