JAKARTA - In the current era, the need for passenger sharing services through applications is increasing. Especially for people who do not own vehicles, this service is a popular transportation option.

Indonesia is one of the countries with high demand for passenger sharing services. Therefore, various local and international companies have provided this service to meet public transportation needs.

One of the passenger sharing companies that see the potential of the Indonesian market is inDrive. They are committed to strengthening their business in Indonesia through various initiatives, ranging from the electric motorcycle ownership program to funding programs for startups.

Arsen Tomsky, founder and CEO of inDrive, stated that they see that in the next 10 years, the Indonesian market will be more dynamic with easier inter-regional mobility, so that this business will develop in the country.

"This provides a great opportunity for inDrive to attend and support these developments," Arsen said in an official statement, on Thursday, July 6.

One of inDrive's commitments is to provide ownership of the latest electric motor for drivers. This step is in line with the government's program to increase the adoption of electric vehicles.

In addition, inDrive has also provided social security to drivers through BPJS Ketenagakerjaan since last year, to provide comfort for them. This program has been accessed by drivers in more than 50 cities in Indonesia.

InDrive also supports the development of startups by launching a global award program, namely the Aurora Tech Award, for women founding startups in technology. To date, two women from Indonesia have received nominations for this award.

Arsen also announced that inDrive will launch funding programs for startups around the world, including in Indonesia. The inDrive Startup Partnership program has a value of 100 million US dollars (around Rp. 1.5 trillion) and is aimed at startups that are considered to have a significant impact on the company.

Furthermore, inDrive will strengthen its position in Indonesia with several programs in the future, including cooperation with partners in the field of education for startups to develop their business creativity.
