Business Opportunities

Expertise and local support is available to deliver activities that meet the following investment criteria:

Maximises outcomes from IA-CEPA
What commercial outcomes is the activity expected to deliver? What is the business case for the activity? What is the potential return on investment? (Click here for the key benefits of IA-CEPA).
Includes financial or in-kind co-contribution from the proponent

Katalis will prioritise activity ideas with financial or in-kind co-contribution. Please provide details regarding your co-contribution.

Mutually beneficial to Indonesia and Australia and aligned with bilateral and/or regional interests

Does the activity support ‘win-win’ bilateral commercial opportunities? Please detail who the direct and indirect beneficiaries will be of your activity and if they are in Indonesia or Australia. What broader economic, social or public benefit (if any) are you expecting beyond the commercial outcomes identified?

How does the activity increase bilateral and/or regional growth and prosperity? (This picks up the idea of IA-CEPA delivering powerhouse opportunities, whereby the imports of one partner are used to strengthen the export competitiveness of the other partner).

Prioritises catalytic outcomes

Is the activity scalable? Does it crowd in other investors or traders from the sector or from related value chains?

Delivers gender equity and social inclusion

Does your activity target, include or make a positive impact on women, people with disabilities or other marginalised groups – particularly in sectors heavily affected by COVID-19?

Politically feasible and practical

Katalis can support policy and regulatory reform to help strengthen and align commercial ecosystems. Is your activity dependent upon large policy or regulatory reform under IA-CEPA? If so, is the change politically feasible or practical?

Reflects Indonesia and Australia’s comparative advantages

What resources (e.g., human, industry, commercial, organisational, management, institutional) from each country will your activity idea draw on?

Katalis ensures your business is connected and supported to realise bilateral commercial partnerships under IA-CEPA, and that Indonesia-Australia trade and investment ecosystems are better aligned. We work across a diverse range of sectors including agrifood, advanced manufacturing, education, energy, communications, tourism, health and aged care, engineering and construction, legal, financial, infrastructure and transport. We deliver activities in partnership with beneficiary organisations and by directly engaging high quality service providers (implementing partners), including utilising the expertise and networks of a range of existing Australian Government programs, such as Australian Awards, Investing in Women and Prospera as well as agencies such as Austrade. Our unique value is in linking trade and development outcomes through business-sector led activities.

Over the course of the program, through to 2025, Katalis will engage with Indonesian and Australian business and industry groups, calling for activity ideas to identify further investments which will expand existing and build new partnerships, trade and investment.

If your business or industry has an innovative, commercial idea to increase bilateral trade and investment, please contact us through the Business Portal or at info@iacepa-katalis.org.

All activity ideas will be assessed and prioritised against the Katalis investment criteria, giving consideration to competing ideas, budget constraints, and guidance from both the Government of Indonesia and the Government of Australia. All ideas are welcome but Katalis will only consult with proponents of ideas that show the most potential, noting the considerations above, and collaborate with these proponents to develop and refine the ideas into an agreed activity. Following this consultation and collaboration phase, any activity agreed with Katalis management would then need to be approved by Katalis’s board, the Economic Cooperation Committee (ECC), comprising representatives from the Government of Indonesia and the Government of Australia. Any activity agreed with Katalis management will either be included in Katalis’s annual work plans (finalised every December, for ECC approval and implementation in the following calendar year) or else submitted “out of session” to the ECC for approval.
