Indonesia’s CTV market is now large enough to require a serious industry conversation

Three years ago, CTV Asia Symposium Jakarta opened with a single question: can connected television advertising work in Indonesia.

That question is now settled. The 2026 edition picks up where the 2023 conversation paused.

Now that the inventory exists, the audience exists, and the platforms exist, what is stopping CTV from becoming a default line in every Indonesian advertiser’s media plan.

The answer involves measurement, programmatic plumbing, the role of retail data, the slow shift of buyers from direct deals to automated paths, and a question this market has not yet had to answer at scale: what does premium look like when CTV is no longer experimental.

This is the conversation Jakarta 2026 is built around.

02 / Theme

A full day, structured as two conversations

2026 Theme

The Indonesian CTV Decade:
From Proof to Scale

The day is built in two halves. The morning establishes where Indonesian CTV stands today — the foundation of audience, inventory, household data, and creative craft. The afternoon turns to what gets us to scale — the programmatic plumbing, the retail data integration, the open-internet question, and what the next phase of measurement actually looks like in this market.

Track 01 · Morning

The Indonesian CTV Foundation

10:00 AM — 1:30 PM

What the local ecosystem now looks like. Audience data, household sync, smart TV penetration, the role of OTT publishers, and the often-overlooked question of what CTV creative should actually look like in Indonesia. Three years of ground-truth, mapped end-to-end.

Track 02 · Afternoon

The Path to Scale

2:30 PM — 6:00 PM

How Indonesian CTV connects to the global stack. Programmatic buying paths, identity beyond the walled gardens, retail data as a CTV signal, measurement in the post-cookie reality, and the buyer’s perspective on when CTV moves from line item to mainline budget.

Opening Keynote

The Indonesian CTV Foundation: three years on, what changed and what is now possible

A grounded look at where the Indonesian CTV market stands today — what has actually been built, what advertisers are doing differently now compared to 2023, and which of the early questions have been answered.
10:35 — 11:20
Panel 01

Decoding the Indonesian smart TV viewer: what we know now that we did not know in 2023

A frank conversation about the Indonesian household — who is watching, on what device, in which language, and how that behaviour should change the way brands plan their CTV spend.
11:20 — 11:45
Industry Address

The CTV creative gap: why Indonesian CTV inventory is being bought programmatically but creative is still being made for linear TV

A look at the most under-discussed part of the CTV story — the ad itself. What dynamic, interactive and shoppable creative could look like in Indonesia, and why the rest of the market has not caught up yet.
11:45 — 12:05

Networking break · refreshments

12:05 — 12:50
Panel 02

The CMO panel: when does CTV move from line item to mainline budget

A direct conversation with the people who actually sign off on the spend. What it would take for CTV to stop being an experimental allocation and become a default part of the media plan in 2026 and 2027.
12:50 — 1:30
Fireside

The supply side: what publishers, OEMs and broadcasters owe the next phase of Indonesian CTV

A candid view from the platforms that own the inventory. What they are seeing on their side, what is changing in their content and ad strategies, and where they need the buy-side to meet them next.
1:30 — 2:30

2:30 — 3:00
Afternoon Keynote

From CTV to the open internet: how Indonesian programmatic connects to the global stack

A view from the buy-side platform that powers a meaningful share of Indonesian programmatic activity. Where Indonesia fits in the global open-internet picture, and what scale actually means in this market.
3:00 — 3:45
Panel 03

Programmatic Indonesia 2026: what is actually being bought, and how

A working-level conversation about the real state of programmatic buying in Indonesia today — what is moving through automated paths, what is still happening direct, and what the next eighteen months will look like.
3:45 — 4:15
Fireside

Retail media, identity and the post-cookie buy: a fireside conversation

A conversation about what happens to advertising as cookies fade and as retail platforms become a primary source of audience signal. What this looks like specifically in Indonesia and across Southeast Asia.

Networking break · refreshments

4:35 — 5:20
Panel 04

Measurement Indonesia: what the buy-side will demand by 2027

5:20 — 6:00
Closing Panel

The Buyer’s Decade: where Indonesian CTV and programmatic will be in 2028, and what gets us there

The day’s closing conversation. A senior view from the agency leadership that controls a large share of Indonesian media spend — what they expect from the next two years, and what the industry needs to do to be ready.
