Global Connect Series 2026

Build global connections and explore international career opportunities while staying rooted in Indonesia!

Global Indonesia Professionals’ Association (GIPA) represents over 6.000 Indonesian professionals and executives based abroad across G20 and ASEAN countries, in eight key industry groups. As a global secretariat, GIPA empowers a global alliance of overseas professional hubs to advance Indonesia’s economic diplomacy and human capital development.

The Global Connect Series 2026, themed “Securing Roles and Winning in Competitive Job Markets: Insights from US and International Alumni,” is an event organised by GIPA in partnership with Henley & Partners and Georgetown SFS Asia-Pacific.

Taking place in Jakarta on 26 November 2026, the event will bring together alumni, industry leaders, and professionals through keynote presentations, a fireside chat, and a panel discussion. It aims to explore strategies for securing competitive global career opportunities, understanding employers’ expectations beyond academic qualifications, and building high-value international careers while remaining based in Indonesia.

By seeking diverse work experience and perspectives, Indonesian professionals can gain skills and learn best practices that can help them contribute meaningfully to Indonesia’s development.

The event will conclude with a networking reception to strengthen professional connections and potential US-Indonesia collaborations.
