The event gathered OTT industry leaders from Asia to discuss the current conditions of the OTT industry, local business strategies, and the future of OTT platforms in the region.

The conference was moderated by TCHA Seungjae, a prominent professor from Dongguk University, who guided in-depth discussions with panelists on unique business strategies and success factors of OTT platforms in each country. The main topics covered include the production of original content and the platform's way of dealing with the growing market dynamics.

On this occasion, Frederica gave a detailed presentation regarding the role of KlikFilm as one of the leading local OTT platforms in Indonesia. KlikFilm specifically targets the cinema segment, by trying to become a home for international award-winning films. KlikFilm is also known for organizing the Jakarta World Cinema international film festival, which features a lineup of prestigious festivals such as the Cannes Film Festival and Busan International Film Festival," he said, quoted from a media statement received by VOI, Wednesday, October 9.

Frederica also highlighted KlikFilm's initiative to support the development of new filmmakers through collaboration with the Jogja Film Academy, which provides opportunities for young filmmakers to develop their work. The films of their works then have the opportunity to be shown on the KlikFilm platform, creating an ecosystem that supports the birth of new talents in the film industry," he explained.

In the discussion, panelists also observed the great potential for OTT market growth in Asia. To support and strengthen profitability and collaboration between local OTT platforms, one of the recommendations that emerged at this conference was the formation of a network of funds with OTT Asia. This initiative is considered an important step to increase the competitiveness of local OTT platforms and create closer cooperation throughout Asia.

Frederica emphasized that KlikFilm will continue to be committed to presenting quality content and providing space for local creators to develop, in line with the great potential that the OTT market in Asia has.
