epresentatives from hundreds of international and local franchises will meet in Jakarta later this month to exchange ideas and discuss opportunities with fellow players and potential investors during the Indonesia Franchise and SME Expo 2016.
As well as franchises, the expo will focus on small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
The event, set to run from Nov. 25 to Nov. 27 at the Jakarta Convention Center, is also expected to help the public learn more about the franchise industry, said Indonesian Franchise Association (AFI) chairman Andrew Nugroho.
Prior to the expo, delegates from dozens of countries will meet for the World Franchise Summit Indonesia (WFSI) from Nov. 22 to Nov. 24, also in Jakarta, during which they will participate in a series of seminars and business meetings.
"[Delegations from] 23 countries, like Finland, the Netherlands, China and Brazil, have confirmed their attendance at the event in Jakarta. This is a good opportunity for us to show and introduce our local franchise brands," Andrew said as quoted by tribunnews.com on Wednesday evening. (hwa)
