National macro context (BPS)

National figures from Statistics Indonesia (BPS), not from our listing corpus. BPS publishes with a lag, so its period is often older than this report's quarter — the period is always shown.

Methodology

  • Tracked since 2026-05-25 from publicly available Indonesian and regional tech-media coverage. Company names are as reported.
  • Layoff and funding totals count disclosed figures only; the disclosed ratio is shown so readers know the coverage.
  • Funding appears when disclosed rounds are tracked for the quarter; rounds without an amount are still counted but add nothing to the raised total.
  • Salary is a 90-day rolling window of salary-disclosing listings; cells with fewer than five samples are suppressed. It is not quarter data.
  • Skills are the share of active listings naming each skill, taken as a snapshot at quarter close.
  • National macro context (unemployment rate, average wage) comes from BPS, not from our corpus; the BPS period is shown as-is because it publishes with a lag.
  • Aggregate data, not republished listings. Licensed CC BY 4.0 — free to use with attribution.
