Jakarta, 19 January 2026 – The Minister of Creative Economy / Head of the Creative Economy Agency, Teuku Riefky Harsya, received an audience with Dyandra Event Solution (DES) to discuss potential collaboration opportunities in developing creative talent through Dyandra Academy and strengthening event-based intellectual property (IP) through the launch of a new platform, Screenverse. The meeting forms part of broader efforts to expand synergy between the government and creative economy industry players.
Minister of Creative Economy Teuku Riefky Harsya received an audience with Dyandra Event Solution (DES) to discuss creative talent development and event IP at the Ministry of Creative Economy office, Jakarta, Monday (20/1/2026).
Dyandra Academy is a collaborative learning platform developed in partnership with higher education institutions, focusing on creative fields and event management. The program is designed to provide hands-on learning experiences from an early stage, ensuring that students are equipped with industry-ready competencies before entering the professional world. The Minister of Creative Economy assessed the initiative as being aligned with the Ministry’s talent development program cluster for the creative economy.
“This program can serve as a reference for talent development, as the Ministry of Creative Economy primarily positions itself as an accelerator, rather than an orchestrator or incubator,” he said on Monday (19/1/2026).

In addition to human resource development, DES also introduced its latest event IP, Screenverse Indonesia, an exhibition for the film, television, and digital content industries aimed at connecting creative ecosystems to encourage collaboration and innovation within the national audiovisual sector.
Managing Director of DES Rachdian Nashidik explained that Screenverse is designed as an integrated platform across the screen-based industries.
“Screenverse is essentially a new integrated platform for the film industry, OTT platforms, and the broader screen-based industries. This platform was created because many industries currently operate independently and are not yet united within a single ecosystem. Through Screenverse, we hope all industry players can collaborate and generate something much greater together,” he explained.

He added that the initiative is expected to enhance economic development potential, encourage investment, create employment opportunities, and support sustainable industry growth through consolidation of the national creative ecosystem. Based on data presented by DES, global OTT user growth has increased significantly, with an average rise of 250–400 million users every two years. Meanwhile, the creator economy in Southeast Asia continues to grow steadily, contributing an additional USD 2–4 billion in economic value annually.
The Ministry of Creative Economy encourages strengthened synergy between government, educational institutions, and industry to accelerate the emergence of high-quality talent, reinforce national event IP, and enhance the global competitiveness of Indonesia’s audiovisual subsector.
