Hello there

When I was younger, I religiously watched Dragon Ball Z, the Japanese anime. There’s one thing about the show that I like to think of whenever I come across a merger of companies: It’s called “fusion” and it literally refers to two characters merging their bodies to defeat a more powerful enemy. The message was clear even to a young boy: The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

That also applies to two Indonesia-based startups that recently merged to create Quipster. In today’s story, we take a look at how this merger came about and what it means for the two firms.
