Amazon considers investing in Indonesian ride-hailing giant Gojek

Incepted in the year 2015, Gojek debuted its app for booking motorbike taxis in Jakarta.

While emerging as a super app in Indonesia, it even handled almost $1.5 billion of transactions outside this country.

This level of achievement is due to the penetration of its services into the rest of Southeast Asia.

Though it managed to raise $1 billion, it is still in the hunt for capital.

Recently, Amazon is said to be in talks to join the current funding round to strengthen its presence in Southeast Asia.

Conversely, Gojek’s rival Grab also announced that it would invest $150 million into artificial intelligence research to uplift its own application services.
