Rachmat Efendi

I’m Rachmat Efendi, a startup founder, mentor, and business leader with over 15 years of experience in SaaS, capital markets, startup growth, and digital transformation. As the CEO of ChatApp.id, I’ve led the development of WhatsApp-based business solutions, including MyHorison Chat, a seamless hotel booking experience used by 65+ hotels across Indonesia. Before this, I helped scale Anterin.id, expanding operations to 30+ cities, reaching 1 million users, and generating Rp3 billion per month through new revenue streams. My journey also includes leading initiatives at the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), where I launched IDXMobile, founded IDX Incubator, and helped shape regulations that allow startups to go public. I specialize in growth strategies, business development, fundraising, and product innovation, and I’m passionate about helping founders scale their startups, navigate challenges, and secure funding. Having been recognized by Alibaba Netpreneurs, Echelon Asia, and Startup Istanbul, I know what it takes to build, launch, and grow a successful venture. Now, I’m excited to share my insights and experience to help fellow entrepreneurs succeed. 🚀
