In the Merry Riana Entrepreneur of the Year Award 2023 competition, which started in May and ended in July, I participated in two selection stages before finally becoming a finalist. The first stage was an administrative stage, and if I passed, I would proceed to the second stage, which involved filling out and creating a resume about each participant's business, and I passed. Next, I was on my way to the finalist stage. I received a special invitation to attend INSPIRA FEST 2023 for free. I went to the location, Sutera Hall, Tangerang. There were quite a lot of applicants for this competition, more than 10,000 applicants, namely 10,208 applicants from all walks of life. Then, they were filtered down to 50 finalists per category who were invited to Insipira Fest. From all the finalists in each category, one winner would be announced. Before leaving as a finalist, I was asked to make a video explaining my business https://www.instagram.com/reel/CvkoU7QpTJg/
