Indonesia has selected over 80 delegates to attend this year’s SelectUSA Investment Summit from June 23 to 26 in National Harbor, Maryland, according to a statement from the U.S. Embassy in the capital Jakarta.
The delegation consists of representatives from private companies and regional state-owned companies, as well as government officials from across the country.
“This year, as we celebrate 75 years of diplomatic relations between our two countries, we also mark the milestone of 80 future investors from across sectors and regions in Indonesia joining the SelectUSA Investment Summit 2024. This surpasses previous Indonesian participation since the establishment of the Summit in 2014,” said Acting Deputy Chief of Mission in Indonesia Jason P. Rebholz.
Rebholz also noted that the diverse representation underscores the increasing interest and confidence of Indonesian investors in exploring opportunities in the United States.
SelectUSA is a program led by the U.S. Department of Commerce that focuses on facilitating job-creating investment opportunities in the United States and raising awareness of the critical role that international partnerships play in creating broad-based economic prosperity.
The annual summit has become a crucial platform for encouraging direct investment into the United States, enhancing economic engagement and bolstering people-to-people connections. It has gathered thousands of investors from around the globe, providing them with valuable insights, resources, and networking opportunities with economic development officials from across the United States.
Participants also get access to investment incentives, tax benefits, site selection options, and industry clusters tailored to their specific interests and objectives.
The SelectUSA Investment Summit also fosters international partnerships that benefit both the U.S. economy and Indonesian investors, such as the U.S.-Indonesia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
