Mission.
YPI Asia offers students a unique internship experience in Bali, Lombok and Jakarta. We combine professional growth with full local support, helping students settle into life in Indonesia while gaining valuable professional experience through their internship. From internship placement and visa support to housing and community activities, we guide students throughout their entire journey.
Vision.
Our vision is to become the leading platform for international internships in Indonesia. By connecting students with meaningful internship experiences, cultural immersion and a strong international community, we help young professionals grow both personally and professionally.
Our Story.
Young Professionals Internships (YPI Asia) is an internship agency founded in 2013 by former local and international students who have experienced studying and interning in Indonesia and other Asian countries. Having gone through this journey ourselves, we now help students from all over the world experience Indonesia and create the same unforgettable memories.
Over the years, YPI Asia has grown into a bridge between companies in Indonesia and students from around the world. We support both students and companies by handling the practical aspects surrounding internships, allowing everyone to focus on the experience itself. Our team provides local support and guidance across our locations in Indonesia.
Through our extensive experience in Indonesia and our growing network of partner companies, we help students find internships that match their studies and interests. Our goal is to ensure students have an unforgettable experience abroad while gaining valuable professional and cultural insights. Our personal guidance, community, and organized trips and activities are what truly set us apart.
