IDXChannel - The Indonesian Embassy in London, in collaboration with the Representative Office of Bank Indonesia in London and the Indonesia Investment Promotion Center (IIPC) London, will host the Indonesia Investment Forum (IIF) 2023.
Aiming at fostering investment in the green sector, digital transformation, and sustainable trade and supply chains, the forum will be held in London on 5 October 2023.
IIF 2023 is an annual event that aims to showcase and promote Indonesia's investment landscape and Investment Projects Ready to Offer (IPRO). This forum will be enriched with business matching sessions featuring selected IPRO projects from 11 sectors, including renewable energy, electric vehicles, digital, infrastructure, transportation, and tourism.
IIF 2023 marks the beginning of a series of "Experience Indonesia" events, encompassing cultural arts performances and exhibitions of SME products during "Indonesian Night" on the evening of October 5, coupled with Experience Indonesia Dublin, which would be the first Indonesian cultural arts performance in Ireland in the last 5 years.
Indonesian Ambassador to the United Kingdom (UK) Desra Percaya, hopes that IIF 2023 can forge closer investment cooperation between the two countries.
"Especially considering the value of Indonesian-UK investment continues to steadily rise, in line with Indonesia's prominent standing on the global economic front,” he mentioned in a media release on Monday (2/10/2023).
In 2022, UK investment in Indonesia reached a substantial USD22 million, securing its position as the 10th largest investor in the country.
