Guest blogger Magnus Ramstad Dahl tells about NordCham Indonesia

Dear Finnish business community in Singapore!

The vast Indonesian market undoubtedly offers tremendous opportunities for Nordic companies.

That said, it is important to remember that this is a challenging market to operate in with a lot of pitfalls and a much higher administrative burden than for instance Singapore,

we therefore strongly recommend companies to be a part of a network of other Nordic companies.

There are currently around 250 companies operating in Indonesia across a wide range of sectors including energy, shipping, maritime, retail, mining, transportation, technology, telecommunications, education, real estate, tourism and services.

We are pleased to inform you that the Nordic business community in Indonesia are now joining forces to form NordCham Indonesia. NordCham is a membership organization for Nordic companies operating in or with an interest in Indonesia as well as Indonesian companies looking to work with Nordic technology and companies.
