Overview

Merah Putih Fund (MPF) is Indonesia's first venture capital fund established to support the growth of local soonicorns—startups poised to become unicorns. Launched in December 2021, the fund is backed by a consortium of five state-owned enterprises (BUMN) and aims to enhance the digital economy in Indonesia. With an initial fund size of approximately $300 million, MPF focuses on growth-stage startups, providing not only capital but also business collaboration and exit assistance. The fund's unique structure allows it to integrate portfolio companies into the broader BUMN ecosystem, facilitating their growth and potential IPOs on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.

Focus

Merah Putih Fund invests in growth-stage startups, specifically targeting soonicorns in Indonesia. The fund's investment strategy includes supporting founders who are Indonesian citizens and reside in Indonesia, with a pre-money valuation range of USD 200-350 million and ticket sizes between USD 20-25 million. The fund aims to increase the number of unicorns in the country and enhance the digital economy.

Support

Merah Putih Fund provides unique value to its portfolio companies through direct integration with the distribution networks of its state-owned enterprise partners. This structural advantage accelerates revenue scaling within Indonesia and offers support for IPOs aligned with the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), creating a domestic exit pathway for startups.
