Business Owners / SMEs

Build a network grounded in shared professional goals and personal ventures with fellow business owners.

A confidential peer group by EGN Indonesia for business owners and SME leaders to exchange insights, strengthen decision-making, and grow their businesses through trusted relationships.

This peer group brings together business owners who understand the real pressures of ownership—from revenue growth, cash flow, and scaling, to people, partnerships, and long-term sustainability. In a safe and confidential environment, members openly discuss challenges that are often more complex and personal than those faced by employed executives.

Through shared ownership experiences, members gain practical, experience-based insights that can be applied directly to their businesses. Discussions span both strategy and execution, helping owners make better decisions, faster.

As trust builds over time, business opportunities naturally emerge. Members support one another through referrals, introductions, and potential business partnerships—organically and voluntarily, grounded in genuine relationships rather than pitching or selling.

The current key topics that are being explored during our meetings, and we regularly seek our members’ input to flex and change these as situations change:

Group Case Studies and Best Practices
Business Development: Strategies and Group Case Studies
Growth and Scaling- Tricks to Success on a Tight Budget
Converting Leads and Finding the Right Clients: How to Turn Short-Term Clients into Long Term ones
Digital Marketing: Tips and Tricks
Advisory Boards
Sales Models and Lead Generation
Legal Pitfalls and how to avoid them
Financial Models and Practices
Talent Retention & Developing a Team Culture
Digitalisation
Automation
Finding Your Purpose

From strategy development to effective execution, this is a peer group that will exchange ideas to identify the best practices for tomorrow.
The members in this group include the Head of IT, Emerging Market Microsoft Singapore, Chief Information Security Officer APAC of Schneider Electric, Business Development Manager Artificial Intelligence and Mac at Amazon Web Services, General Manager IT Transformation of International SOS, Director Business Analysis & Optimization & Robotic Process MBS, and many more.
