#Startuplokal Meetup July 2016 with Reno Rafly
Happy to have the founder of Catalyst Global Consulting Reno Rafly coming from NYC to share about Team Building at #Startuplokal Meetup v.63 on Thursday, 21 July 2016 6-9pm at Jakdiva Menara Multimedia Telkom Kebon Sirih Jakarta.
More than 200 people came to StartupLokal meetup that night. Not only from Jabodetabek, we also have guests from Swedia, Austria, and a backpacker couple from Saudi Arabia! The discussion went lively and we got good insights from Reno about human capital, HR and team building issues.
I think Reno is an amazing woman. While leading a business that spread in several countries, she nurtures 3 children without maid (the youngest is 1,5 years old), and even traveling without assistance with all of them from New York to Jakarta.
When I asked her how she managed all of that, she said: “I don’t know, I just did!” :))
PS: From Facebook I found out that Reno is a sister of my friend Brata Rafly 😀 Well as President Obama said, the world is shrink, indeed.

Change of Plan(e)
So my flight back home from San Francisco to Jakarta was supposed to be on 24 June 12.05pm. But I intendedly missed it and bought a new ticket in last minute for these reasons:
Obama! Yes, President of the United States Barrack Obama was on stage for Closing Plenary of Global Entrepreneurship Summit 2016 starting 09:30 am.
Mark Zuckerberg! Yes, the founder of this most popular social media Facebook was also on stage together with President Barrack Obama.
Natali Ardianto :) Yes, my hubby was also on stage as GIST Winner 2012 and shared his experience after winning the award, together with 2 other winners.
Indonesian diaspora gathering dinner. Thanks to Pak Andy Zain and Pak Chandra who organised and invited all of us to get connected to each other.
And turned out, the Closing Reception cocktail party of GES 2016 was fun, too! Enjoyed the food and free flow drink on a perfect sunny day with invitees from 170 countries.
So was the new ticket that cost $650 for just 1 day extend worth it? Yes! I would have regret it if I stick to my plan and missed all the fun today :)

Nuniek Tirta Ardianto - no regrets, more blessings

5 tahun mengawal komunitas startup dan bergaul dengan young entrepreneurs, saya sering menyaksikan sendiri bagaimana founder startup yang tampak glamour sesungguhnya hidup susah karena startupnya menang ini itu namun tidak make money.
Bagaimana founder yang berpakaian necis bermerk merangkak dari kempompong menjadi social butterfly namun untuk mengikuti gaya hidupnya yang (tampak) tinggi dia tidak malu-malu meminta pinjaman uang.
Bagaimana founder yang tampak percaya diri berbagi kisah inspirasi di hadapan ratusan mahasiswa perguruan tinggi namun di dalam hati tengah gundah gulana karena harus menutup perusahaannya keesokan harinya.
Dan masih banyak lagi.
Mahfum memang jika kebanyakan orang -dan tentu saja media- lebih mengapresiasi mereka yang tampak berprestasi di depan layar dan mengesampingkan apa yang terjadi, bagaimana prosesnya, dan siapa yang berperan penting di belakang layar.
Success is not always what you see. Don’t compare your scoop of success with others. As everyone has one’s own field of battle, root and background, do not compete with anyone but (the previous version of) yourself.
#Startuplokal Meetup v57 tonight was about Marketing to Middle Class Muslim, with speakers Riel Tasmaya CEO Muslimarket Indonesia, Falah Fakhriyah VP Hijabenka.com, and Andreas Senjaya co-founder Badr Interactive.
The panel discussion went alive & hillarious thanks to our moderator Natali Ardianto of Tiket.com 😂 It’s funny because from 3 StartupLokal initiators (Natali, myself, and Aulia Halimatussadiah), only Ollie is moslem but she chose to do opening part instead of being the moderator 😅
The discussion went from marketing strategies, do’s and dont’s, insider’s insights, effectiveness of promotion via social media, omzet, tips on how to find cofounder, and many more, for more than an hour.

Hope to see you on the next #Startuplokal Meetup!

We had a privilege to see exclusive preview of Startup season 2 that is airing tonight at 7:30pm +7GMT in Channel News Asia. One of the contestants is cofounder of MailBird, a startup based in Bali, Indonesia.
In this event Steve from KLN and Debra from Channel News Asia announced strategic partnership between both parties. KLN introduced a new arm of business, KLN Play, that will offer budding Indonesian entrepreneurs seed funding and strategic support to jumpstart their businesses.
See you guys at the next party!
Happy to have Joel Gascoigne the CEO & CoFounder of Buffer App from Silicon Valley visiting Tiket.com and sharing at the 50th #Startuplokal Meetup in Jakarta Digital Valley tonight ^.^
Accompany hubby @nataliardianto speaking about #Startuplokal at Schematics 2012 at ITS
Feel honored that I had the opportunity to present about #Startuplokal and Indonesia startup scene in general, in front of 45 Google managers from all around the world that came to visit Project Eden.
And to my surprise, Marissa Mayer was also with them. Had nice chit chat with her about life being a career woman and also support from husband, while I was having my lunch.
UPDATED:
That was just a couple of months before she left Google for being Yahoo CEO. And just later I found out that she was 4 months pregnant. I feel bad to let her went up and down through emergency stairs!
