02 / What we do

Keep members informed, and get them in the room

The two things their About page says the chamber does, in the order it says them.

Keep members well-informed on political, regulatory, economic, and business developments through events and reports by our Knowledge Partners.

Organize various events and facilitate business-to-government meetings to help our members succeed in the challenging Indonesian business environment.

What that means in practice
