East Ventures on Instagram: "On June 4th, 2015, Willson Cuaca was invited to speak at a University of Southern California event for alumni in Jakarta called Trojan Talk Series. It was the first time Willson met with William Utomo, the co-founder of an online media called Indonesia Times. . After the meeting, they decided to meet again at Ya Kun Kaya Toast Kopi Tiam in Fusionopolis in Singapore. This time, William brought his brother and co-founder Winston Utomo. The trio immediately clicked and the deal closed within two weeks. . It has since rebranded to @idnmedia . . Today, @idntimes and its sister sites @popbela_com and @popmama_com collectively receive more than 50 million unique visitors per month. The company also owns IDN Creative, an in-house creative agency which provides service to clients; IDN Events, which organizes events including its flagship Indonesia Millennial Summit; as well as IDN Creator Network, a platform that connects more than 3,000 influencers with brands. To top it off, 2018 was IDN Media's first profitable year. . This is what Winston says about the journey of IDN Media and East Ventures: . “East Ventures plays a very significant role in IDN Media’s journey. Besides expanding our connection to a broader network, East Ventures helps us grow to become a world-class company with strong fundamentals. Today, IDN Media successfully impacts more than 50 million Millennials and Gen Z in Indonesia every month. This will never happen without the tremendous help and support from East Ventures. Thank you for everything, East Ventures. Thank you for believing in our vision to positively impact society. One step at a time, for a better Indonesia.” .
