The morning programme was a visit to Ruma. This social-economic company has agents all over Java that sell services, for instance topping up of prepaid phones. Most of their agents are located in rural area’s, where they also act as a point of internet access. Next to making profit, Ruma helps out the people in this regions this way. Challenges are for example using e-learning over low brandwitch to train their agents.
In the afternoon Badr Interactive (http://badr.co.id/) welcomed us at their company. Their business consists of multiple parts, including software development and incubating startups. Take a look at their site for examples.

We concluded our presence with an cultural night at the Universitas Indonesia, with several local performances. Everyone liked the atmosphere! The Saman dance performance was awesome!
