ICON2020 will release videos of the speaker sessions each day during the event on video site KASKUS TV, divided by subthemes such as Create Excitement & Get Monetize, From Awareness to Fondness, Always in Trends & Relevant, Go Big through Gaming and Music Next.

To watch the videos, tickets can be purchased at Blibli.com with prices starting from Rp 62,500 (US4.43). Presale tickets will be available until Dec. 9, while the general sale for tickets is open until Dec. 18. 

“ICON2020 differs from its predecessors in that it can be viewed online with the ‘watch and rewind’ concept, meaning that people who have bought the tickets can enjoy each session for seven days, [and] they can watch it repeatedly at any time,” GDP Venture CMO Danny Wirianto said in a statement.

The complete schedule of ICON2020 is available on its website. (wir/wng)
