Gito Sabata presented the second talk show, .Temu’s Chief Marketing Officer. It focused on the F&B business and Gito’s journey to create .Temu.
“I did choose the concept of .Temu with a good concept, from ambience to place setup. So the concept of .Temu coffee shop is different in each place, there are outdoor, communal, semi-indoor and others,” Gito said.
Gito also expressed his personal opinion, “Businesses cannot look solely from one side, for example, focusing on income or marketing alone. But businesses must see from many sides and also be equal so that they complement each other.”
Preparations for this KBMK started at the end of 2023, together with the Cooperation Team of the Indonesian Talent Development Center (Balai Pengembangan Talenta Indonesia BPTI), the Internal Student Affairs team, and UMN students.
