Indonesia has one of the largest economies in Southeast Asia with some top startups that should be watched throughout 2024. There are currently over 2,300 Indonesian startups entering their respective markets. Within that figure, there are nine unicorn startups and two decacorn startups. You might already be familiar with the startup term unicorns, but decacorns are much more rare, with only 47 in the world. A decacorn is a company with a value of $10 billion or more.
There is also a large amount of support from investors in the country, with more than 50 VC firms operating in the far-eastern country. There is also a lot of support from angel investors, with more than 60 startup incubators and accelerators in Indonesia that give their support to startups in the earliest growth stages.
The Indonesian government has put in the work to help support its new businesses and its entrepreneurs to become top startups. There are multiple grants on offer for startups in Indonesia, to get a foot in the door. One of the schemes launched is called the ‘Startup Incubator Program‘ and was designed to promote local startups. There is also the ‘Credit for Business Grant‘, which is supported by Non-Profit organisations and provides startups with grants to help in various areas of business.
