On July 9, EuroCham attended the Dentons HPRP Event with Hukumonline on Geopolitical Tensions & Geoeconomic Uncertainty: From Globalization to Fragmentation – Risks, Shifts, and Opportunities.

EuroCham extends its appreciation to Dentons HPRP and Hukumonline for the invitation and the insightful discussion on the evolving global landscape, its implications for businesses, and emerging opportunities amid geopolitical and geoeconomic developments.

On July 9, EuroCham Indonesia had the pleasure of holding a meeting between our newly elected Chairman, Pirmin Riegger, and our working group leaders. The meeting served as a vital forum for EuroCham's working group (WG) leaders to introduce themselves to the Chairman and update on their advocacy progress and regulatory hurdles within Indonesia’s evolving legal landscape.

A major recurring theme across sectors was the complexity of mandatory Halal certification, with groups advocating for clearer technical guidelines and international recognition to ease trade barriers. Additionally, the groups emphasized the strategic importance of the I-EU CEPA negotiations. The meeting concluded with a shared goal of enhancing cross-sectoral collaboration to address overlapping issues such as waste management, energy efficiency, and digital policy.

EuroCham extends its sincere appreciation to the Chairman and fellow working group leaders for their active participation in discussing EuroCham’s future. Under this new leadership, we believe that EuroCham can further European business interests and mark more advocacy milestones.
