What Bisnis Indonesia Group does

Bisnis Indonesia Group (BIG) is a privately held Indonesian integrated media conglomerate operating through holding company PT Jurnalindo Aksara Grafika (JAG) since 1985. The group is structured into two divisions: BIGMEDIA, which encompasses Bisnis Indonesia (Indonesia's largest business and economics daily newspaper, published 7x/week since December 1985), Bisnis.com online portal, Bisnis TV streaming, regional newspapers Solopos and Harian Jogja with their associated digital portals and radio stations, plus sub-brands Bisnis Muda, DataIndonesia.id, Context, and Hypeabis.id; and BIGSERVICES, which provides Bisnis Indonesia Event Organizer (BIEO) and Learning Center (BILEC), Cyber Techno (IT/digital solutions), Bisnis Indonesia Intelligence Unit (BIIU, research and data), Media Services (corporate magazine production), Book Publishing (Gagas Bisnis, Pustaka Bisnis Indonesia), and Printing Networks across five facilities in Jakarta, Surabaya, Solo and Makassar.

The company monetizes through nine distinct revenue streams: print and digital newspaper subscriptions (Rp 300,000/month print, Rp 220,000/month e-paper), display and classified advertising across print/digital/TV/radio, corporate event sponsorship and management (100+ annual events including the long-running Bisnis Indonesia Awards now in its 23rd edition), commercial research and consulting, corporate magazine content production, book publishing, commercial printing services, classifieds/market data, and an e-commerce storefront (Toko Bisnis). Distribution leverages ten regional representative offices spanning from Medan to Makassar plus an owned five-facility printing network.

The group serves a B2B-heavy audience of C-suite executives and board-level decision-makers at leading Indonesian corporates (customer logos include Bank Indonesia, OJK, Pelindo IV, Kalbe, Semen Tiga Roda, WIKA, Bank Sumsel Babel, ICON+), B2C subscribers and e-paper users across the country, and government institutions purchasing corporate media services. GTM is hybrid: enterprise field sales for advertising/corporate services, self-serve digital subscriptions for individual consumers, event-driven sponsor acquisition anchored on the annual awards cycle, and community-led growth via Bisnis Indonesia Platinum Society and Bisnis Muda.
