Case study by Chamil Dissanayake, CEO, Ants Creation · Updated

In short

Ants Creation built Internet Plus Asia, an integrated co-creation platform that connects startups, investors, researchers and industry leaders across Asia, in three months. It brings together the I+ Discussion Forum, I+ Industry News and I+ Asia, a section on how each country’s policies support or hinder startup ventures.

The challenge

What did Internet Plus Asia need?

Asia’s rapidly evolving digital landscape lacked a centralized platform to showcase and support internet platforms leveraging technologies like AI, Big Data, Blockchain, Augmented Reality, and Virtual Reality. The fragmented ecosystem hindered collaboration among innovators, risk-takers, and investors, preventing the seamless co-creation of impactful solutions.
