On November 11, EuroCham had the pleasure of attending the L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science Award Ceremony 2025, an event organized by our esteemed Gold Member, L'Oréal Indonesia, in commemoration of World Science Day for Peace and Development.

The ceremony opened with welcoming remarks by Prof. Stella Christie (Vice Minister of Higher Education, Science, and Technology in Indonesia), H.E. Fabien Penone (Ambassador of France to Indonesia, Timor-Leste, and ASEAN), and Benjamin Rachow (President Director of L’Oréal Indonesia). Their addresses underscored the importance of empowering women scientists and promoting inclusivity in advancing scientific innovation for sustainable development.

This annual initiative celebrates the outstanding achievements of Indonesian women researchers whose work contributes meaningfully to society and inspires future generations in science and technology. The event also honored four outstanding women scientists whose groundbreaking research received this year’s For Women in Science awards, recognizing their remarkable contributions to advancing knowledge and creating real-world impact through science. Through the L’Oréal-UNESCO partnership, the program continues to recognize the critical role of women in driving scientific progress and fostering a more equitable and knowledge-driven world.

EuroCham extends its sincere appreciation to L’Oréal Indonesia for the kind invitation and its enduring commitment to championing gender equality and excellence in science across Indonesia.

EuroCham Indonesia was pleased to attend the Central Java Investment and Business Forum (CJIBF) 2025 on 04 November 2025 courtesy of our member, BI International

At CJIBF 2025 (Central Java Investment Business Forum), the Central Java Provincial Government announced that 34 investors have moved into one-on-one deal discussions, with an estimated investment potential exceeding IDR 5 trillion. This is a clear signal that Central Java is positioning itself not just as an investment destination—but as an execution-ready partner.

With a strong focus on renewable energy, circular economy (including waste-to-RDF), and downstream food & agribusiness, CJIBF 2025 aligns closely with the strengths of EuroCham members across clean energy, sustainable infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, agrifood value chains, logistics, and healthcare solutions.

Led by Governor Ahmad Luthfi, and supported by key stakeholders including Bank Indonesia Central Java and DPMPTSP Central Java, the forum reinforces Central Java’s commitment to accelerating green, bankable, and partnership-driven investments—creating tangible entry points for European companies looking to scale impact and long-term value in Indonesia.

This is where policy vision meets projects—and where Euro-Indonesia collaboration can move from dialogue to delivery
