The EuroCham delegation was led by Donald Situmorang, Board Patron of the ICT-IP Working Group. The meeting provided an opportunity to discuss EuroCham’s key priorities, including enhancing 5G connectivity, advocating for a level playing field for digital infrastructure investment, and addressing the proliferation of counterfeit goods on e-commerce platforms.

We extend our sincere appreciation to all participants for their constructive dialogue and valuable insights, which contributed to a productive exchange on strengthening Indonesia’s digital economy.

On 2th of June, EuroCham Indonesia attended the Innovation & Compliance Forum 2026 webinar, which focused on how Indonesia can strengthen the downstream development, standardization, and commercialization of Jamu [traditional Indonesian herbal medicine], herbal products, supplements, and cosmetics through research, regulation, and industry collaboration.

The discussions highlighted that innovation, especially related to the use of herbal medicine and its ingredients, must be backed by evidence, proper documentation, and regulatory compliance if products are to succeed in both domestic and global markets.

EuroCham would like to extend our appreciation to BPOM for hosting this innovative event. EuroCham continues to support BPOM’s initiative to help push Jamu’s health awareness and benefits to the world.
