Indonesian prosecutors demanded a 10-year prison sentence for the founder of eFishery , who admitted to inflating revenues after his company racked up some $300 million of investor losses to become one of Southeast Asia’s biggest startup failures. During a hearing at the Bandung District Court on Wednesday, state prosecutors accused Gibran Huzaifah and two other executives of causing losses to the startup of more than 69 billion rupiah ($4 million) and damaging investor confidence, noting the defendants showed no remorse during the proceedings. The prosecutors didn’t outline how they arrived at the figure. The trial marks another chapter in a spectacular fall from grace for eFishery, once heralded as the crown jewel of Indonesia’s agritech sector. The founder’s hearing is playing out in Indonesian courts almost a year after he gave Bloomberg News a detailed account of how he falsified accounts at a startup once valued north of $1 billion. Read More: CEO Explains How He Faked Results in $300 Million Meltdown EFishery’s ultimate collapse dealt a blow to several of the world’s highest-profile investors from SoftBank Group Corp. and Temasek Holdings Pte. to Peak XV (formerly Sequoia India) and Abu Dhabi’s 42XFund . The company, which deployed feeders to fish and shrimp farmers in Indonesia, incurred several hundred million dollars in losses between 2018 and 2024, Bloomberg News has reported. The business began unraveling after a board investigation revealed the startup may have inflated its revenue and profit over several years. The scandal triggered widespread scrutiny over regulatory oversight and due diligence standards in Southeast Asia’s venture capital markets. The proposed sentence for Gibran is based on violations under the law of embezzlement in office and money laundering, prosecutors said during the hearing, which lasted less than an hour. After the session, which was sparsely attended, Gibran — who wore a white shirt — briefly met with several supporters pre...

Snap Inc. is laying off roughly 1,000 full-time employees, or 16% of its global workforce, part of an effort by Chief Executive Officer Evan Spiegel to reduce costs and achieve profitability. In a memo to employees early Wednesday, Spiegel said the cuts are necessary for Snap to boost efficiency as it pursues profitable growth. He also cited improvements in artificial intelligence technology that let Snap employees move more quickly. Additionally, the company is closing more than 300 open roles. Spiegel told staffers, many of whom were told to work from home on Wednesday, that the job cuts and pullback on hiring will reduce Snap’s annualized cost base by more than $500 million by the second half of this year. Snap estimates that total revenue rose 12% to $1.53 billion in the first quarter, according to updated investor materials. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization came in at approximately $233 million during the period. “Last fall, I described Snap as facing a crucible moment, requiring a new way of working that is faster and more efficient, while pivoting towards profitable growth,” Spiegel wrote in the memo, which was reviewed by Bloomberg News. “Over the past several months, we have carefully reviewed the work required to best serve our community and partners, and made tough choices to prioritize the investments we believe are most likely to create long-term value.” Snap’s stock is down almost 31% so far this year as the company faces challenges to user growth — including efforts by lawmakers and regulators around the world to enforce social media bans for teens. The company’s efforts to overhaul its advertising business have also delivered mixed results . And while Spiegel is working to sell a vision for augmented reality glasses, which the company plans to debut later this year, it has leaned heavily on outside firms to power its AI offerings. Larger rivals, meanwhile, are spending aggressively to build and develop their own...
