Reuters Low-cost carrier AirAsia has stepped up its digital ambitions by acquiring tech behemoth Gojek’s operations in Thailand , but industry watchers say the airline faces an uphill battle in Southeast Asia’s heated superapp competition. The all-share deal will see AirAsia take Gojek’s ride-hailing and payments businesses in Thailand, which are worth a combined US$50 million (S$68 million), while the Jakarta-based unicorn will get a 4.76 per cent stake in AirAsia Digital. That digital venture, previously named RedBeat Ventures, was launched in 2018. Its portfolio includes AirAsia’s mobile application, which has evolved into a superapp that offers non-airline-related services such as e-commerce for lifestyle and beauty products; cross-border logistics; food deliveries; and payments. The AirAsia Digital venture also runs a training centre in Malaysia , which was established in collaboration with Google to provide a fresh pool of software engineers and data scientists.
