On Friday, October 2, 2026, APIKRI warmly welcomed a delegation of 30 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) assisted by Bank Indonesia Jambi. The visiting entrepreneurs arrived at APIKRI's headquarters to engage in a study visit, share valuable business experiences, and explore potential collaborative opportunities in sustainable enterprise development.

The group was graciously received by APIKRI's board members and operational staff, who provided an insightful overview of the cooperative's history, export strategies, and community-based business model. Throughout the visit, the 30 participants displayed immense enthusiasm, eagerly taking notes and exploring the showroom displays while gaining practical knowledge on how to scale traditional crafts for broader markets.

The interactive session featured a lively question-and-answer period where the Jambi entrepreneurs raised various practical inquiries regarding export procedures and cooperative management. This fruitful exchange successfully fostered strong cross-regional networks, laying a promising foundation for future partnerships between APIKRI and the Bank Indonesia-assisted SMEs.
