Yunindita Prasidya is a journalist from Indonesia. She explores the intersection between business, technology and culture.
Dita, as she is known, previously covered the Indonesian and Southeast Asian startup industry for The Ken, a Bangalore-based business and tech media. Prior to that, she was a business reporter for the Indonesian national newspaper The Jakarta Post, covering banking and the stock market.
She took her Master’s in Digital Anthropology at the University College London. Her dissertation about the neoliberal subjectivity of Indonesian venture capitalists was awarded a distinction. For her Bachelor’s, she studied Communication with a major in Media Studies at the University of Indonesia, where she graduated with the highest GPA in her department.
Dita was a competitive debater during her school years, with a keen interest in arts—photography, film-making, and dance. She still does photography for personal memory keeping and for fun. (The photograph in the background was taken using a Kodak film camera her friends gifted her.)
Naps > coffee (she can’t drink coffee but she would imagine even if she could, the verdict remains).
