Jakarta, ThedailyID — Yayasan Puteri Indonesia and PT Netzme Kreasi Indonesia (Netzme) strengthened their ESG commitment through the “Women Empowerment Journey: Crown of Impact x Motion Challenge” at Puteri Indonesia 2026. The event took place on April 14, 2026, at Teater Wahyu Sihombing and involved 45 finalists presenting social impact programs.
The initiative aims to move beyond economic empowerment by integrating environmental, social, and cultural aspects. Netzme has long supported MSMEs across Indonesia, but now focuses on building sustainable and measurable impact through digital transformation.
In the competition, Cheryl Lidia Regar from East Kalimantan won Best Advocacy. She introduced CIRO WASTE, a circular economy platform that turns waste management into economic value.
As a result, Cheryl will receive investment and direct mentorship from Netzme. The support ensures her project continues beyond the competition and develops into a sustainable initiative.
Kusuma Anjani from Mustika Ratu said the program challenges finalists to build long-term, relevant advocacy. “Advocacy should not stop at competition but grow into a sustainable movement,” she said.
Meanwhile, Janu Saputra from TalkUp Indonesia highlighted communication skills as key. “A founder must communicate ideas clearly, or they remain potential,” he said.
Netzme CEO Vicky Ganda Saputra said the program sets a new standard for measurable social impact. He encouraged finalists to build initiatives that deliver real social and business value.
The event drew strong public interest both on-site and online. It reflects growing awareness of the role young women play in driving positive social change.
Voting for the finalists remains open until the grand final on April 24, 2026. Organizers hope the initiative continues as a long-term platform for impactful and collaborative advocacy.
