#SelasaStartup: AI Beyond the Hype, Building What Actually Wins the Market
About This Event
Almost every startup today claims to be "AI-powered." But the gap between the narrative and real implementation remains huge—especially in Indonesia. Infrastructure challenges, data readiness, and user adoption are far more complex than what you see on global conference stages.
For founders, the question is no longer "should we use AI?" but rather: Which AI use cases actually solve customer problems, and how do we build them sustainably in a local context?
The June 2026 edition of #SelasaStartup is here to answer that. We will separate hype from real use cases and show you how to build AI products that truly win the market.
What You Will Gain
A practical framework to evaluate which AI use cases are worth building—based on data availability, problem clarity, and customer willingness to pay.
Two complementary perspectives:
From a B2B SaaS product builder who has achieved profitability (Qiscus).
From a global brand operator mapping 2026 AI trends from the front lines of Indonesian market adoption (Hostinger Indonesia).
Real case studies on AI unit economics, build vs. adopt decisions, and defensibility strategies in the local market.
Targeted networking with 50 AI innovators, tech enthusiasts, and founders who are integrating AI into existing products.
