Industry Mainstay

Star Capital is a verified, substantial Indonesian investment holding company (founded 2017) with significant operations in Energy, Infrastructure, and Financial Services. External search confirms a workforce of 300-1,000 employees and verified partnerships (e.g., PointStar/Google), placing it well above the scale of typical startup submissions. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product') and ambiguous financial data ('marketcap: 17000000'). The score reflects the high real-world value and traction of the actual entity, heavily penalized by the poor quality of evidence provided in the application.
