This event is not just an ordinary performance but a marker of the achievements in nurturing cultural arts talent in Indonesia. This program is a national priority overseen by Bappenas and managed by the Ministry of Culture. Its main background is the need to scout talents from seedlings to excellence so they can compete at the international level.

In the music sector, the Coordinator of the Music Expert Team, Aris Tofani, highlighted the phenomenon of the established pop music industry. However, its biggest challenge is detecting hidden talents in regions that have not yet been touched by the radar of large industries. "The music industry or music that is in the pop industry is already at a dimension or level that is directly connected to its market," said Aris Tofani during a press conference.

Aris added that the role of the expert team is not just as event organizers. They focus more on activating local communities to discover hidden gems in various regions of Indonesia. "We cannot, the expert team does not organize programs but rather activates the communities that exist in the area," added Aris.
