JakFri and JakCre is the biggest, oldest, most active, and most inclusive MeetUp community in Jakarta… and we invite you to join us to join us for this fun, informal, and useful BUSINESS NETWORKING EVENT!

Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle. Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself.

ABOUT THE EVENT
There's no business without business networking... it's all about connecting, learning from each other & getting inpired.

This event is FOR EVERYONE who is doing any kind of business in Jakarta or online. Let's get together and have a BUSINESS NETWORKING EVENT (Vol. IX)

The setting is very simple: We will meet and sit together. It's like a speed dating session, but the topic is business and it's not about dating! Everyone will ge the chance to talk with as many people as possible in a very friendly and informal setting. Everyone will have about 3 minutes to give an elevator pitch about their business/story/project/idea to every person they talk to! After the 2h session is over, we will mingle and connect. Are you reay to bring your business idea to the next level?

The language will be in English. Your English doesn't have to be perfect, just good enough for people to understand you. This is your change to improve your business English and to promote yourself and your great ideas, business, and projects!

Enterpreneurs, creatives, start-uppers, local business owners, creatives with practical ideas, professionals with big dreams and bold plans are very welcome to join in this informal business networking.

We have organised this event many times before with huge success! You can see a few past events here:

ABOUT THE VENUE
Pos Bloc (https://www.instagram.com/posblocjkt) is a fantastic, historical building transformed into event venue. There's plenty of café and eateries all around. Usually we sit in the middle, in a dynamic and informal setting aimed at increasing conversations and connections.
