COMICONNECT Tour 2019 will be focused in 4 cities in Indonesia in liaison with local creative communities, especially those specialized in comics. After Yogyakarta, CIAYO Comics will continue the tour in Malang, Medan, and finally Bandung. CIAYO Comics as the biggest local comic platform in Indonesia keenly supports the local creative industry, specifically comics. In this series of events, CIAYO Comics intends for comic artists to build partnerships with business people to help them further develop their IPs. "Last year we already built networks between creators, and now we want them to raise their consciousness on how to actually make a living from their creative products," said Rajiv Akram, Head of Marketing CIAYO Comics. 

The event features creative artpreneurs like Muhammad Misrad, creator of MICE Cartoon, renowned novelist Sweta Kartika, and Jasmine Surkatty, creator of Komik Gak Jelas to share their experiences of their career in the creative industry. Some authors of CIAYO Comics' popular titles will also be featured in this events like Julian Syahputra of Sengklekman, Akhmad Fadli of Ragasukma, and Feiruz of Imaginarium. They will also share their experiences and perceptions of the creative industries in their hometowns as comic artists of various backgrounds.

To further discuss about entrepreneurship, CIAYO Comics also invites local brands and creative businesses in the region like Starcross from Yogyakarta, KITC from Bandung, Zero Heroes from Malang and calligrapher Letter by Betty from Medan. These 4 businesses represent the most lucrative collaboration between art and business. "Contemporary clothing and apparel business demands fresh creative contents, usually from artists and illustrators, for developments. For example, big clothing brands like Uniqlo and H&M regularly collaborates with big names in the creative industries like Disney and Marvel. We hope our local industry can also adopt this strategy to develop," said Rajiv. 

COMICONNECT Tour was successfully held in 11 cities in 2018. COMICONNECT Tour 2018 with the theme "Connecting Inspiration" aimed to build networks among creative peers, especially comics.
