CEO, Manufacture, Distribution, Chemical, And Oil And Gas

Franchise Investor in Jakarta, Indonesia

Interests: I am an individual investor actively seeking businesses with robust financial health and operational stability. My criteria include steady cash flow, ensuring the ability to cover salaries and maintain sufficient working capital, alongside manageable debt levels. I am focused on companies that are not insolvent, bankrupt, or undergoing debt restructuring. Ideally, the businesses should have been in operation for at least five years, demonstrate annual revenues between IDR 1-15 billion, and maintain consistent profitability over the last three years. I am familiar with all the locations in Indonesia.
Background: I currently run a business of chemical manufacture and distribution. The company has been around for 20+ years - with factory in Semarang and distributes across Indonesia. We are currently one of the top market leaders in the industry. Besides that, I also hold a stake in a company providing electrical solutions- we sell parts, help with electrical engineering and installation of power plants. The company has been in operation for 10+ years. I will be investing in a personal capacity, preferably in an industry which has synergy with my current business.

Founder, Acting School

Individual Buyer in Tivim, India

Interests: When evaluating a business for investment, acquisition, or advisory services, I focus on several key factors to ensure both growth potential and alignment with my interests: 1. Industry alignment & passion - I am especially passionate about the entertainment and multimedia sector, including film, television, digital content, and emerging media technologies. I look for companies that are innovating in content creation, distribution, or leveraging new platforms to reach audiences. 2. Market position & brand strength - I value businesses with a clear, differentiated brand and a strong position in their market. For entertainment companies, this means a unique creative vision, established intellectual property, or a loyal audience base. 3. Financial health & revenue stability - Strong, transparent financials are essential. I look for consistent revenue growth, healthy profit margins, and robust cash flows. In entertainment, I pay particular attention to recurring revenue streams, such as content licensing or syndication. 4. Growth potential & scalability - I prefer businesses with scalable models and significant room for expansion, whether through new content, geographic reach, or digital transformation. For example, companies embracing streaming, virtual reality, or interactive experiences are especially attractive. 5. Management & creative talent - A talented, visionary leadership team is crucial, especially in creative industries. I look for founders and executives with a track record of innovation and execution. 6. Barriers to entry - I assess whether the company has defensible assets, such as exclusive content rights, proprietary technology, or strong distribution partnerships, that protect it from competitors. 7. Industry trends & consumer behaviour - Understanding how technology and consumer preferences are evolving is vital. I favour companies that are agile and able to adapt to new platforms, monetization models, and audience shifts. Sectors I like: 1. Entertainment & multimedia - Film production, streaming platforms, digital content studios, and gaming companies. 2. Real estate & construction - Residential and commercial developments, especially those tied to lifestyle or hospitality. 3. Travel & tourism - Innovative hospitality brands, experiential travel platforms, and destination management companies. 4. Stocks & financial assets - Publicly listed companies with strong fundamentals in the above sectors. Sectors I avoid: - Businesses lacking transparency or with unclear revenue models. - Companies are overly dependent on a single hit product or trend without diversification. - Sectors facing rapid obsolescence due to technology, unless they have a clear plan for transformation. I am always looking for opportunities where creativity meets commercial viability, and where my passion for entertainment, media, and lifestyle sectors can add value beyond just capital.
Background: I am the founder of an acting school. I am a dynamic entrepreneur, filmmaker, and actor, born in Goa, where my passion for storytelling and business took root. At 10, I assisted my family’s factory making electrical pipes. Travelling to Goa with my father, I honed marketing and sales skills, shaping a 24-year career in entertainment, real estate, sports, insurance, multimedia, publishing, and tax consultancy. From 15 to 20, I worked in my father’s tax consultancy in Mapusa, learning client relations. My love for cinema sparked at 15, watching movies. At 21, in 2000, I joined as a food and beverage trainee, becoming an assistant supervisor. In 2001, I moved to Mumbai to pursue acting and filmmaking but returned to Goa after an accident, working in my father’s business and as an insurance agent. In 2003, I joined an academy, meeting my guru who transformed my career. I debuted in movies and a biopic. From 2004 to 2008, I worked in Bollywood, South Indian, and Konkani films as a junior artist, character actor, and production assistant. From 2005 to 2009, I honed my craft in Mumbai’s TV industry. Trained at an acting studio, I paused my career to support my family. From 2014 to 2017, I worked at Goa’s electricity department. A broken promise of a TV channel role in 2017 fueled my entrepreneurial drive. A call to teach acting led to the founding of my acting and theatre school in 2018 in Porvorim. I mentored actors in Goa, Mumbai, and Vasai, directing a musical in Vasco (2018). In 2019, I moved to Vasai, managing a sports turf during the 2020–2021 lockdown. In 2021, I worked as a translator, which reignited my passion. After another accident, I returned to Goa, launching a social media agency and YouTube channel (2022–2023). In 2024, I completed a filmmaking course at an institute in Bandra, directing and acting in short films. I am the founder of an entertainment and media company, and I am pioneering a global ecosystem for indie and regional cinema. Our tagline reflects a mission to deliver authentic, culturally rich content that fosters pride in Goan and Indian identities while connecting global audiences.
