Primagama is also a holding company which has 20 subsidiaries in formal education, non-formal education, telecommunications, travel agents, restaurants, supermarkets, insurance, and golf courses.
Zenius officially acquired Primagama by signing the memorandum of understanding (MoU) in February 2022. Through the acquisition, Primagama's name changed to “New Primagama Powered by Zenius, which was announced on Primagama’s 40th anniversary.
Through this new brand, New Primagama Powered by Zenius launched a hybrid learning method with a two-teachers model approach that allows students in all New Primagama branches to learn virtually with one master tutor at the same time. Meanwhile, offline tutor in New Primagama branches also accompany their students, and provide additional guidelines and mentoring directly.
This learning method has been introduced through a series of events dubbed Hybrid Edunation which was held in Surabaya in July. This event was also held collaboratively with the Deputy Governor of East Java Emil Dardak and content creator Jerome Polin.
