A year ago, the Manpower Ministry turned a parking lot in one of its offices in South
Jakarta into a start-up development and talent hub, later called the Innovation
Room.
Ever since, the 300-squaremeter coworking space complete with cozy colorful sofas,
a meeting room, a lobby and of course 24-hour internet connection has always been
packed with loyal young visitors.
One of these is Crisman Wise Silaban, 27, who appeared to be busy on his laptop on
Aug. 13 in the Innovation Room. Not far from him, a group of people were taking
part in a workshop held in the middle of the open space area, learning about
branding.
"This is not only a workplace for me but a place to develop ourselves and our
business," said Crisman, the CEO of Transfree, a start-up involved in money transfer
and remittance, and who is among the young people who benefit from the
Innovation Room.
