Disruption is changing the world & economy
Recent disruptions has added pressures for businesses, but also opened doors for new opportunities. The two main disruptions happening in our economy are:
Technology: Technology is developing rapidly, changing the way businesses operate and reach their customers. Businesses need to continually find ways to offer more efficient and impactful products and services. Industries that have rapidly transformed by technology include the travel and eCommerce, where services have increasingly moved online.

Sustainability: The rising awareness of sustainability has also led to another form of disruption. Governments are now seeking more sources of green energy, while corporations are encouraged to not just focus on making profit, but create long-term value by making a positive impact on the planet and society. In Indonesia, there is a slow but sure transition to zero carbon fuel and adoption of greener sources of energy. For example, we are seeing a rising demand for electric vehicles and batteries.

The Covid-19 pandemic has sped up technology adoption
The Covid-19 pandemic has helped speed up technology adoption and prompted change in the behaviours of both businesses and consumers, pushing people to adopt technology earlier.
As the pandemic ensues, Indonesians are spending more time online, where they shop, work and interact, resulting in a surge in new Internet users with a higher likelihood of stickiness. Even after the lockdown, the number of hours spent online by Indonesians remained high, showing a clear change in behaviour.

Invest in the future
Invest in the future, in companies that are driving the new economy. Disruption is happening in all market sectors, and it’s happening exponentially, heavily driven by technology.
Business that cannot adapt and survive as their way of business have been disrupted are known as the Disrupted, while those that manage to survive are known as Survivors.
In the disrupted environment, businesses must fight to survive. Only those that are willing to adapt to changes can survive and shape the new economy. These new economy businesses mainly fall under these categories - Disruptors, Enablers and Adaptors – and are the ones that we focus on.
- The Disruptor: The innovative company at the forefront of change, and are often the source or cause of disruption. They are the ones who disrupt with new and more efficient ways of doing business.
- The Enabler: A company that acts as the conduit for change, whose technology or expertise enables businesses to become more efficient and effective.
- The Adaptor: Established companies that are able adapt to new trends and delivers up-to-date products and services.
