The forum also featured strategic discussion sessions covering cross-border collaboration opportunities, market entry strategies for Indonesia, and regulatory insights for foreign companies. These discussions provided participants with a comprehensive overview of Indonesia’s business readiness and the growth potential of its priority sectors.
From the international partner’s perspective, Emily Zhou highlighted Indonesia’s strong appeal to global investors.

Expanding Access for Tianjin-Based Companies to Indonesia
Efforts to strengthen Indonesia–China business connectivity entered a new phase through a strategic partnership between vOffice, TEDA, and the BFSU Indonesia Alumni Association, aimed at supporting Tianjin-based companies seeking expansion into Indonesia.
This collaboration was announced during an official visit by the Indonesian delegation to TEDA, one of China’s most influential economic and technological development zones. Participants in the visit included Sean Tham, Group Chairman of vOffice, Albert Goh, Group CEO of vOffice, Sudjadi, CEO of Silver Bullet, along with key stakeholders actively promoting Indonesia–China trade relations.
Led by Xie Yi, President of the BFSU Indonesia Alumni Association and CEO of Elephant Data Technology Indonesia, the delegation toured TEDA’s core facilities and received in-depth briefings on its industrial ecosystem. TEDA is widely recognized as a global manufacturing and innovation hub, hosting multinational corporations such as Tiens, FAW-Volkswagen, Volvo, Novo Nordisk, Otis Elevator, Airbus, and Apple.
During the meeting, TEDA presented its global expansion services and infrastructure designed to support companies entering overseas markets. In return, the Indonesian delegation provided a comprehensive overview of Indonesia’s market potential, priority industries, and the country’s evolving investment policies and regulatory framework.
The visit culminated in the signing of a strategic cooperation agreement between the TEDA Global Expansion Base, BFSU Indonesia Alumni Association, and vOffice. Under this collaboration, vOffice was appointed as the primary local partner responsible for providing business address solutions, licensing assistance, market-entry advisory, and ongoing operational support for Tianjin-based companies entering Indonesia.
At the same occasion, TEDA also inaugurated the Indonesia Integrated Service Station, a one-stop service center offering regulatory guidance, business localization support, and trade facilitation between Tianjin enterprises and Indonesian partners. The appointment of vOffice as the key partner underscores TEDA’s confidence in vOffice’s proven experience and capabilities in supporting cross-border business expansion.
