Peter Surja, EY Indonesia Country Managing Partner, says:
“Through Indonesia’s EY EOY program, we proudly recognize entrepreneurs who are redefining what it means to lead in business and in society. This year’s finalists reflect a new generation of leaders who are not just adapting to change, but also actively charting new directions. Reflecting on our 2025 theme of The Shapers: Honoring Entrepreneurs Who Shape What’s Next, they act with clear purpose, bring bold ideas to life, and create lasting positive impact through creativity, persistence, and excellence. Their businesses stand for more than growth as they embody resilience, innovation, and a commitment to making a difference.”
The finalists will be evaluated by an independent panel of judges comprising esteemed leaders from business, academia, and regulatory institutions. The Entrepreneur Of The Year 2025 Indonesia and other category winners will be announced at the gala celebration in Jakarta this November.
These finalists stand a chance to be named the EY Entrepreneur Of The Year, an honor bestowed upon Winston and William Utomo last year who were named the 2024 EY Entrepreneur Of The Year Indonesia. As founders of IDN, the Utomo brothers have revolutionized Asean media and entertainment space through digital innovation and a strong focus on empowering Indonesia’s youth. Their work has fostered an inclusive creator ecosystem while setting new standards in social impact and workplace culture.
The EY EOY program stands as one of the most esteemed recognitions of entrepreneurial achievement worldwide, honoring individuals who drive innovation, demonstrate exceptional leadership, and contribute meaningfully to society. For nearly four decades, the program has highlighted outstanding entrepreneurs across more than 60 countries and 145 cities.
