Ideosource, an investment fund set up by former Plasa.com exec Andi S Boediman successfully snabs a new portfolio and this time is an iOS developer company called Touchten.
Touchten produces iOS apps and games, including popular games such as Sushi Chain, Castle Runner, War Mania and Free Kick Mania. Sushi Chain even made its way into the top 15 games on Japanese iTunes Store, an incredible achievement for Touchten. Beside games, Touchten also build iOS apps such as Health Myth, Kho Pinghoo among others.
Touchten was founded by Anton Soeharyo and was basically consisting his Indonesian friends while they were studying in Tokyo. The company has expanded since then, specializing for iOS devices and producing contents (games and apps) as well as growing the team.
Touchten is Ideosource’s second portfolio after they announce eEvent as their first company to incubate a few months ago. To be honest, Andi Boediman and partners are putting a big bet on the adoption of iOS devices in Indonesia with this investment. Of course from another angle, Touchten is definitely going to produce non-local contents, but in the long run they have to pay more attention to the local market.
