THE CONCEPT
The bilateral relationship between U.S. and Indonesia is growing in geo-political importance in both commercial and political sectors. Women now play key roles in Indonesia’s transformation from an aid dependent nation, to a 21st century entrepreneurial economic powerhouse.
The position of the Indonesian woman is rapidly evolving from typically traditional to currently consequential. As they take leadership roles leading to major changes in the world’s largest Muslim country, challenges remain.
For almost 70 years, AICC has focused on building bridges between U.S. and Indonesian commercial partners. Many of those partnerships, private and public, have been guided by women.
The US-Indonesia Women’s CEO Summit will bring together C-Suite women from both private sectors for a series of lively, open, and uniquely personal conversations focused on how they did it, how they do it and how theyare planning for the future.
