Business research firm and global database, CB Insights, has compiled a list of the Indonesian startups with the highest valuations.
These companies hold unicorn status, meaning their valuations exceed US$1 billion. Seven companies currently meet this criteria.
eFishery remains on the list with a valuation of US$1.3 billion, or approximately Rp21.1 trillion (assuming an exchange rate of Rp16,233 per US$) as of January 7, 2025. This places eFishery in third position.
CB Insights reports that eFishery has received funding from several investors, including Aqua-Spark, Wavemaker Partners, and Peak XV Partners.
eFishery is currently under scrutiny following the suspension of CEO Gibran Huzaifah due to alleged embezzlement of company funds. Recent reports suggest the company's financial statements have been manipulated to show a profit instead of a loss.
Traveloka holds the top spot with a valuation of US$3 billion, a position unchanged since July 2024.
Traveloka's investors include Global Founders Capital, East Ventures, and Expedia Inc.
Akulaku is second, with a valuation of US$2 billion. Its investors include DCM Ventures, IDG Capital, and Siam Commercial Bank.
DANA is in fourth place, with a valuation of US$1.13 billion. Ant Group, Lazada, and Sinar Mas Indonesia are listed as investors.
Rounding out the list, Xendit, Ajaib, and Kopi Kenangan each hold a US$1 billion valuation.
