Industry Minister Agus Gumiwang Sets Sights on INNOPROM 2026

Indonesia has been honoured as the Official Partner Country for INNOPROM 2026, the largest international industrial exhibition in Eurasia, scheduled for 6-9 July 2026 in Ekaterinburg, Russia. Industry Minister Agus Gumiwang stated that INNOPROM is a massive industrial event, making Indonesia’s involvement highly significant. The appointment as partner country reflects the strong bilateral relationship between Indonesia and Russia, as well as Indonesia’s position as a major economic power. Indonesia hopes its role in INNOPROM will create opportunities to expand the market for Indonesian manufactured products in the Eurasian region, particularly for food and beverages, textiles, furniture, rubber products, and downstream natural resource industries. This initiative is a pathway for Indonesia to achieve its goal of becoming the world’s fourth-largest economy by 2030, supported by natural resources, human capital, and a manufacturing sector that serves as the backbone of the economy. The Ministry of Industry is committed to ensuring the success of INNOPROM 2026 to benefit Indonesia’s manufacturing industry. Several strategies are being implemented, including organising business matching meetings at the Indonesia Pavilion. The Ministry will also feature around 50 companies and industries, ranging from MSMEs and medium-sized industries to industrial estates and startups. Minister Agus Gumiwang also emphasised the importance of strengthening the manufacturing sector through cooperation to enhance the resilience of domestic industry amidst global uncertainty, particularly by reinforcing Indonesia’s position in the global supply chain. One of the industrial sectors being pushed for strengthening and transformation is the health sector, which has now been included in the eight sectors of the 4.0 transformation agenda.
