JAKARTA (March 21): JNJ Management Consultants Sdn Bhd (JNJ Group) has partnered with Indonesia-based OK OCE to form an digital entrepreneurial community platform known as Digital Serumpun.

The parties said in a joint statement that the platform would provide expertise and infrastructure to assist the development of Malaysian and Indonesian entrepreneurs in pioneering their respective businesses.

The two parties inked a memorandum of cooperation on Monday here, witnessed by Indonesia’s Tourism and Creative Economy Minister Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno.

Founded in 2017, OK OCE is a social movement that creates job and micro-business opportunities, targeting Indonesian youths.

“We adapt and complement the structure implemented by OK OCE, whereby they focus on social development followed by the community before developing a business.

“While on the Malaysian side, we will bring businesses that have the potential to cooperate with the community before generating a social movement,” said JNJ Group chief executive officer Fauziah Husain.

OK OCE general manager Iim Rusyams said this collaboration would expand efforts in scaling up more ultra-micro entrepreneurs (small business owners) between the two countries through a solid network.

“This of course opens up a wide range of opportunities for ultra-micro entrepreneurs to reach a wider market and create more job opportunities between Malaysia and Indonesia,” he said.

Meanwhile, Sandiaga was optimistic that the agreement would increase the capacity of entrepreneurs, particularly in the creative industry and tourism.

“This partnership will be beneficial for both sides as we provide support for more business and job opportunities. We are also hoping for a swifter revitalisation of the economy,” he said.

JNJ Group is a private consulting company with 15 years of industry experience in guiding local entrepreneurs in Malaysia to expand their businesses.
