Get! ready for the biggest pop culture celebration of the year! 🎉
myBCA Indonesia Comic Con (ICC) x Indonesia Anime Con (INACON) 2025 is bringing together the worlds of comics, anime, movies, games, and music in one epic event. Organized by Panorama Media, the festival will take place on October 25–26, 2025, at the Jakarta International Convention Center (JICC) — proudly sponsored by PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BCA), and in collaboration with The Ministry of Creative Economy of Indonesia (Kemenparekraf RI), Jakarta Tourism Office (DISPAR DKI Jakarta), and Asosiasi Komikus Indonesia (AKSI) as the Official Association Partner.
The 2025 edition of myBCA ICC x INACON comes at a time when the global creative and entertainment industry is booming. According to the PwC Global Entertainment & Media Outlook 2025–2029, the worldwide entertainment and media market is projected to hit US$3.5 trillion by 2029, with Asia leading as the fastest-growing region. In Indonesia, the creative economy now contributes around 6–8% of the national GDP, with subsectors like film, animation, gaming, and comics driving growth through Intellectual Property (IP).c
Acording to Lulu Anwar, Project Manager of myBCA ICC x INACON, this year’s theme reflects a new direction for the creative industry — one that’s more collaborative and innovation-driven.
>“Pop culture isn’t just entertainment anymore; it’s a global creative playground that connects comics, anime, games, music, and film into one immersive experience,” Lulu said. “Through myBCA ICC x INACON 2025, we want to strengthen collaboration between Eastern and Western creative communities, encourage cross-industry IP synergy, and open up more global opportunities for local creators.”
As part of the October Creative Festival initiated by Kemenparekraf RI, ICC x INACON 2025 plays a strategic role in boosting the IP-based creative economy.
> “Events like this are essential for young creators to showcase their work and network with the global industry. Pop culture is now a major driver of Indonesia’s creative economy,” said Iman Santosa, Director of Publishing and Photography at Kemenparekraf. “This event also aligns with National Creative Economy Day (October 24) and joins the #OktoBerkreasi movement, promoting sustainable growth for Indonesia’s creative scene.”
From the regional side, Endrati Fariati, Head of Inter-Institutional Relations and IP Facilitation at DISPAR DKI Jakarta, added:
> “Jakarta isn’t just Indonesia’s economic hub — it’s also a creative hub. Through ICC x INACON 2025, we want to showcase Jakarta as a dynamic, inclusive urban culture destination.”
From the industry side, BCA — as the main sponsor — is bringing a range of digital activations, including Esports Academy Experience, promo programs for tickets and QRIS transactions during the event.
> “We see myBCA ICC x INACON 2025 as a great platform to support creativity and collaboration among the younger generation,” said Norisa, EVP of Transaction Banking Business Development at BCA. “As a national bank, we’re committed to supporting Indonesia’s economy — including its creative industries — through relevant, integrated digital banking solutions.”
