Entrepreneurship Announcements (Expo/Exhibitions, Ventures, Opportunities, Misc.)

[affi]

Teman-teman,

Mungkin udah pernah denger ya programnya British Council yang namanya Hidden Content , yang diadakan tiap tahun. Tahun ini mereka ngadain lagi. Kategorinya ada 4: design, screen, fashion dan interactive. Pemenangnya akan dikirim ke London selama seminggu untuk ikut berbagai workshop dan networking events. Ini yang menarik banget!

Ini gue copy paste FAQ dari website British Council ya:

WHAT’S NEW THIS YEAR?


First, we’re partnering with Nokia to create an even more exciting programme that include the IYCE Awards and a-newly established Nokia Fellowship for start-ups.

Second, we’ve expanded the age limit of applicants. Creative entrepreneurs who are between the age of 21 and 40 years can now join the competition!

Third, we’ve improved our UK creative industry visits to include more international festivals and masterclasses for you to expand your network and business!

Fourth, you get time to arrange some individual business meetings with the UK network of your choice (based on their availability)

Fifth, the IYCE Awards 2011 is now open for entrepreneurs in the design, fashion, interactive and screen sectors.

WHO IS A CREATIVE ENTREPRENEUR?


You’re an Indonesian citizen who own or work in the creative sector either for profit or not-for-profit. You help bridge talents and consumers, link creative ideas to the market, and empower communities to develop economic potentials of the creative sectors. Winners of IYCE Awards have always been young entrepreneurs who are able to combine business success, creative achievements, social mission and keen to collaborate internationally.

CAN I APPLY IF I DON’T RUN MY OWN BUSINESS?

Yes. Although IYCE supports independent businesses it is not necessary for you to run your own company to apply. You need only to show strong entrepreneurial initiatives, market awareness, and leadership potential in your current job. A number of Indonesia’s IYCE champions like Yoris Sebastian and Aldo Sianturi were or are still employees in other companies.

I OWN/RUN A CREATIVE BUSINESS BUT I DON’T CREATE OR DESIGN THE PRODUCTS/SERVICES. AM I STILL ELIGIBLE TO APPLY?

Yes. Although many applicants will have strong creative backgrounds you will be judged first and foremost on your leadership quality, entrepreneurial skills, social outlook and enthusiasm for international collaboration.

WHAT DO I WIN?

You’ll get a 7-day all-expenses-paid industry visit to UK to develop opportunities for commercial and collaborative work in future. The programme will include:

Curated group meetings to give an overview of what’s happening in the UK that’s relevant to your industry
Peer networking with other international participants and UK young creative entrepreneurs
Access to senior UK industry figures (master-class and a lunch for select invitees), including potential advice/ongoing mentoring and investment
Time for individual business meetings
Attendance at international festivals. Design and Fashion winners will join the London Design Festival and London Fashion Week in September while Screen and Interactive winners get to participate in Power to the Pixel, London Film Festival and London Games Festival in October
International networking reception where participants give a short pitch about their work to delegates

HOW DO YOU PICK THE WINNER?


There are three rounds:

We will select first-round applicants based on whether they have passed the administrative prerequisites regarding age limits, years in business, and type of business as stated in your online registration. We will send you a more comprehensive application form if you pass this first-round.
An independent panel of jury from Indonesia’s creative industry, media, and academia will select 10 finalists for each specific creative sector based on their applications forms. There will be separate panels of jury for each specific sector. Finalists will be invited to Jakarta for interview with the jury.
Each panel of jury will select the National Winner for each specific creative sector based on their interview of the 10 finalists’ creative and business vision of the future in Jakarta. National winners get to win the all-expenses-paid creative industry visit to UK.

Hello para wirausahawati Hidden Content

Female Daily Network bekerja sama dengan Kementerian Perdagangan, nih. Jadi Kementerian Perdagangan akan menyelenggarakan Konvensi PPKI (Pekan Produk Kreatif Indonesia) di bulan Juli, tujuannya menjembatani antara para pengusaha dengan investor, retailers & mentors. Kesempatan yang bagus sekali untuk para pemilik bisnis kecil karena biasanya kalo bisnisnya kurang berkembang pasti karena stuck di modal, distribution channel, atau memang bekal perbisnis-annya kurang.

Sebenarnya ada beberapa macam jenis usaha yang boleh ikut. Tapi yang pendaftarannya lewat kita hanya yang bergerak di bidang Fashion & Kerajinan.

Definisi usaha fashion: adalah kegiatan kreatif yang terkait dengan kreasi desain pakaian, desain alas kaki, dan desain aksesoris mode lainnya, produksi pakaian mode dan aksesorisnya, konsultansi lini produk fesyen, serta distribusi produk fesyen.

Definisi usaha kerajinan: Kerajinan merupakan kegiatan kreatif yang berkaitan dengan kreasi, produksi dan distribusi produk yang di buat dan dihasilkan oleh tenaga pengrajin yang berawal dari desain awal sampai dengan proses penyelesaian produknya, antara lain meliputi barang kerajinan yang terbuat dari: batu berharga, serat alam maupun buatan, kulit, rotan bambu, kayu

Jadi, siapa saja yang boleh ikut?
Pemilik usaha Fashion & Kerajinan (maksimal sudah berjalan selama 5 tahun) yang produknya adalah produksi sendiri.

Bagaimana cara untuk ikut serta?

• Kirimkan Profil Bisnis dalam bentuk PDF/word ke Hidden Content paling lambat 25 Juni pukul 24.00 WIB. Subject: Business Connect

• Cantumkan data diri pemilik/tim manajemen, deskripsi dan contoh desain produk/jasa yang ditawarkan, prestasi (jika ada) dan pengalaman yang pernah diraih terkait bisnis yang dijalankan, serta alamat website dan data lain perusahaan.

Lalu?
Peserta yang masuk akan diseleksi dan FD akan memilih 15 usaha kecil untuk diberi kesempatan presentasi tentang bisnisnya di acara PPKI yang akan diselenggarakan pada:

Sabtu, 9 Juli 2011
09.30 – 15.30
Ruang Cendrawasih 2, JCC

Nanti juga akan disediakan 1 meja untuk product display.

Nah, kapan lagi kan ada kesempatan seperti ini, bisa mempromosikan produk/bisnis sendiri tanpa mengeluarkan dana dan bisa bertemu calon-calon investor dari dalam dan luat negeri? Makanya ikutan, yuk. Siapa tau bisnisnya jadi makin hits Hidden Content .

Kalau ada pertanyaan, silahkan tanya di thread ini ya. Ditunggu partisipasinya Hidden Content
