Festival Jejak Jajanan Nusantara Provides SME Consultation Services

Jakarta (ANTARA) – The Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Cultural Affairs provides integrated consulting services for UMKM entrepreneurs through the UMKM Clinic and the Intellectual Property Rights Clinic (HKI) within Festival Jejak Jajanan Nusantara (JJN).

“For SMEs wishing to register their business, they can register via the link https://bit.ly/RegistrasiKlinikUMKMdanHKI-JJN2026,” said Leontinus Alpha Edison, Deputy for Community Economic Empowerment and Protection of Migrant Workers at the Coordinating Ministry for PM, in Jakarta on Thursday.

The service is provided through a collaboration between the Coordinating Ministry for PM and the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and the Ministry of Creative Economy.

“Festival Jejak Jajanan Nusantara is an golden opportunity for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) not only to increase turnover but also to strengthen the legality and quality of their businesses,” he noted.

He said that consultation registration is open until 7 March 2026 and the consulting services will be conducted during the Jejak Jajanan Nusantara event, from 6–8 March 2026 at the Southwest Car Park, Gelora Bung Karno Complex, Senayan, Jakarta.

The consultation quota is limited to 50 participants per day. Consultation sessions will be divided into several groups according to the type of business of each participant so that guidance is more focused and effective.

UMKM Clinic consultations cover business legality, product certification, going digital, access to financing, and markets. Meanwhile HKI Clinic consultations cover brand education, brand checks, and trademark registration.

“Through the HKI Clinic, MSME players are encouraged to protect their identity and product innovations to avoid disputes while increasing competitiveness at the national level,” he said.

This programme is part of the PM Coordinating Ministry’s commitment to promoting a community empowerment paradigm, where MSMEs are not only helped to survive but are prepared to become legitimate, protected, and competitive economic players.

For those who have not had time to register, there is also an on-the-spot registration opportunity while daily quotas remain.

They also ensure that all consultation services are free of charge.
