About Us

Who We Are

A driving force towards highly competitive and prosperous Indonesia.

Indonesian Business Council is the association of Indonesian business and industry leaders working towards strengthening the nation’s competitiveness and prosperity through a good public policy.

Background

The Indonesian business community realizes the ever-evolving dynamics and complexities within the global economy, driven especially by advancements and challenges in digital technology, international trade, climate change, geopolitical shifts, sustainable economy and the growing trend in ESG adoption.

A platform is needed for Indonesian private sector leaders to have dialog, exchange ideas, and share best practices to enhance the nation’s competitiveness and become national economic force for the greater good of Indonesia.

IBC was founded in February 2023 as an independent, not-for-profit organization and not affiliated with any political party. IBC promotes collaboration and dialog with the stakeholders to create a good, transparent, and conducive public policy environment to boost and strengthen Indonesia’s competitiveness.

Our Visions
