Executive Summary ANGIN End of Year Report 2018

Executive Summary
The year 2018 has been an exciting one for ANGIN. From receiving seed investment from 500 Startups
and prominent angel investors to expanding our team, creating ANGIN Advisory to broaden our impact
in Indonesia, and working with meaningful clients around the world, there has never been a more
exciting time than now to be investing in this country’s entrepreneurial talents.

In this report, we summarize ANGIN’s key activities for 2018 - statistics on the companies we’ve
screened and the deals we’ve worked on, updates on our publications, and highlights of our events.
We will also be laying out our 2019 roadmap, ambitions to grow our impact, and projects in our
pipeline. The ANGIN Team is confident that we will be able to deliver the best deals and services for
angel investors in Indonesia, and welcome you all to step forward with us together in the upcoming
years.

Cheers,
The ANGIN Team

Executive Summary ANGIN End of Year Report 2018

While it has been a good year for ANGIN, we would like to take the time to step back and extend our
condolences to our former colleague Vivian Afifa’s family and friends. Vivian was a passenger of the
Lion Air flight JT 610, which crashed in October 2018.

Vivian was one of our newest employees and had recently joined to manage our partnerships and
public relations. Despite her young age, Vivian demonstrated strong leadership skills and impressive
commitment to support young entrepreneurs. She successfully led several workshops with the Indo-
nesian government to train and inspire women entrepreneurs, as well as an international event with
Korean and Indonesian investors in Jakarta. We have lost more than a colleague, but also a dear friend.
We believe Vivian will remain an inspiration for young female professionals who would like to dedicate
their careers to create impact.

Entrepreneurial Landscape: 2018 ANGIN End of Year Report 2018

Key Highlights
Since the implementation of our new system in July 2018, ANGIN has received and tracked a total of
535 company applications. While this number does not include the applications received from January
to June 2018, we believe this sample can be generalized to represent the typical profile of companies
we screen year-round.

Here are the key highlights of the deals we’ve scouted and assessed:
The majority of the companies were in Financial Services, Lifestyle, and Education. While their core
models were similar (e.g., online learning app for edtech), we noticed there is a growing number of
companies choosing to be in a specific “niche,” rather than targeting the masses (e.g. edtech
companies focusing on parenting, programming, or gaming education).

Out of 535 companies, 25% passed our initial screening and 12% out of them were introduced to our
angel investors. The three most common factors for rejection were: 1) unavailability of strong
differentiation and value proposition in comparison to existing players, 2) presence of many highly
similar competitors in the same industry, and 3) absence of committed and qualified founders to grow
the company.

Demographics
Sectors
Out of the 535 companies that applied to ANGIN, 73% are technology-based ventures while 27% are
brick-and-mortar businesses. The top sectors for the technology-based companies are:

Financial Services 60

Lifestyle 45

Education 45

In the financial services sector, the most common business models used by these technology-driven
companies are billing and payment solutions, followed by peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding, and
financial products marketplace (for business loan and insurance). In the lifestyle sector, many of the
companies are running a marketplace model, focusing on either fashion and art or travel and tourism.
The majority of companies in the education sector operate an online learning product, both for
school-related learning materials and other skill development (e.g., music, cooking). The second most
popular models are education enablers (e.g., integrated learning management systems, student data
analytics, and school payment systems) as well as courses and tutor marketplaces.
05
Entrepreneurial Landscape: 2018 ANGIN End of Year Report 2018

Meanwhile the majority of the offline businesses are in:

Food & Beverage 25

Agriculture 20

Many of the businesses in the food and beverage industry are engaged in the value added processing
activities of agricultural commodities into retail products (e.g., chocolate bar, moringa powder, kenari
nuts butter). On the downstream side, most of these companies are operating a restaurant or a coffee
shop. The business model of companies in the agriculture sector are highly varied, from input provider
(e.g., fertilizer), production/farming, to distribution, both domestic and export.

companies (24% or 95 companies) and between IDR 325 million - 650 million for offline businesses (22%

portfolio companies.

ANGIN Advisory ANGIN End of Year Summary 2018

ANGIN Advisory
ANGIN Advisory is ANGIN’s all new research and consulting arm, specializing in providing primary data
and first-hand insights to Indonesia’s thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem. Our ability to connect to
various stakeholders and actors throughout the ecosystem, conduct research in Bahasa Indonesia,
and understand cultural norms, nuances, and contexts make us an ideal go-to source for those
wishing to strategize or gain a deeper knowledge of entrepreneurship and investment in Indonesia.

ANGIN Advisory saw its biggest growth in 2018, with 6 completed new projects:

Sasakawa Peace Foundation x ANGIN: Startup Assistance Organizations in Indonesia Dual


Report: ANGIN, supported by the Sasakawa Peace Foundation from Japan, launched a dual report on
Startup Assistance Organizations (SAOs) in Indonesia, gathering insights through exclusive interviews
with experts and key ecosystem players. The report identifies key challenges and gaps faced by
Indonesian SAOs in running their programs and achieving their objectives. It also includes a special
gender focus to identify how SAOs can better support women entrepreneurs.

Connector.ID (with UNDP, AWS and BEKRAF): ANGIN has continued the development and
outreach of the first free online matching platform channeling entrepreneurs to the largest database
of capital providers/funding sources. We have strived to support hundreds of entrepreneurs in their
fundraising journey via meaningful connections, introductions and capacity building (workshop, 1:1
mentoring),

Pact Indonesia: ANGIN was tasked with crafting several preliminary market entry strategies for Pact
Indonesia by conducting a thorough internal analysis of Pact, as well as an ecosystem mapping of
impact players in Indonesia, specifically utilizing a gap-led and market-opportunity based analysis
towards these players.

UNDP Islamic Finance: ANGIN and UNDP Indonesia co-authored a report on exploring Islamic
financial instruments as a tool for project financing and early stage investment. Given that Indonesia
has the world’s largest Muslim population with low participation in the Islamic economy, this area is
ripe for growth with massive development potential.

Canada-Indonesia Trade and Private Sector Assistance (TPSA) Project: This year, TPSA
Project, a five-year initiative funded by the Government of Canada, engaged with ANGIN in two
different initiatives for women entrepreneurs. The first is a report project titled “An Overview of Support
Given to Women Entrepreneurs in Indonesia and Canada: Special Focus on Women Entrepreneurs in
SME and Start-Up” and the second is a one-day workshop aimed at bridging the gap between
women-owned SMEs and lenders/investors in three cities in Indonesia (i.e. Bandung, Solo, Takengon).

ANGIN Advisory ANGIN End of Year Summary 2018

The Downs of an Indonesian Technology Startup Journey (Ongoing): In collaboration with


Alpha JWC Ventures, ANGIN is doing a research titled “The Downs of an Indonesian Tech Startup
Journey” to provide an in-depth understanding to why many startups fail. The study will collect data
from past cases of failures to find patterns - where they exist - and build a template to uncover the
cause and effect relationship between certain factors and failure. The template of the “archetype”
failed startup, will be used support and educate technology entrepreneurs on how to avoid failure, and
provide valuable insights to investors and ecosystem builders on how to best support their startup
portfolios.

Women’s Spotlight (Ongoing): ANGIN Women’s Spotlight is a project within ANGIN’s Empowering
Women initiative. It aims to showcase unique stories - achievements and challenges alike - from
inspiring women across Indonesia. Our goal is to shine a light on women changemakers and leaders,
so that we can inspire a new generation of women leadership, motivate young women in their career
paths, and spark dialogue about the unique challenges that women face in the workplace. ANGIN has
partnered with UBS Unique on this initiative.

ANGIN Advisory has several projects in our pipeline, including:

Investing in Women in partnership with The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Australia
Indonesian Women in Leadership (I-WIL) in partnership with OXFAM

Looking Ahead: 2019


ANGIN INVESTMENT:
Keeping with the demand from the ecosystem, ANGIN will be moving to become more of an invest-
ment facilitator, broadening our client base beyond angel investors to serving the entire investment
process.

We are keeping a strong focus on individual angel investors, as we believe in the value of personal
money to grow the startup ecosystem -- faster implementation, flexible capital, non-monetary
value-add, industry expertise and more are just some of the benefits of angel investment. ANGIN is still
committed to servicing Indonesia’s largest network of angel investors. However, in order to scale and
provide better support for our startups, we believe clients in later stages of the investment process will
bring vitality and dynamism to our investments and portfolio.

With an emphasis on stronger user engagement and a data-driven approach, we hope to deliver a
better, leaner, and constantly-improving version of what you currently know as ANGIN: ANGIN 2.0.

ANGIN ADVISORY:
In 2019 and beyond, ANGIN will continue to provide an innovative mix of research, advisory, and invest-
ment services. We aim to grow our consulting and advisory services to become more prominent within
the ecosystem and hope to expand our scope of research including innovative strategies, analysing
trends and developing market-entry strategies, and coordinating and facilitating multi-stakeholder
initiatives.
