Vidio, one of the largest local OTT platforms, announced it has received $150 million (Rp2.1 trillion) funding from Affinity Equity Partners (Affinity), the largest private equity in Asia. Previously fully owned by Emtek Group under Surya Citra Media (SCM), it's Vidio's first external injection. The platform has a $750 million pre-money valuation and the funding has inflated its valuation to near unicorn/soonicorn status.

With this investment, Affinity will join Vidio's board of directors and will partner to accelerate its growth and expand its Indonesian market leadership. The company also plans to expand the original series contents, enrich the program by adding sports content licenses, and invest in advancing user experience.
