Amazon Web Services and Habitat Indonesia Held a Business Literature and Financial Management Training for Entrepreneurs from Small to Medium Enterprises (SME) in Karawang.

Amazon Web Services cooperated with Habitat for Humanity Indonesia to hold a Business Literature and Financial Management Training for Entrepreneurs from Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Karawang.

The training went on for two days, from 24th to 25th January 2023. On 24th January 2023, it started with welcoming speeches by the leader of KPKS, Seia Piantara, SE, MM, and the Local Economic Union and SME Secretary, Amid Mulyana, SE., MM. The training’s first session was filled with the provision of production management literacy training by Dr. Endang Mahpudin, M.M. The following session was carried out by Ms. Fonny Arisandy Jacob, SE, MSi., who shared a lecture about financial management.

The participants followed each session enthusiastically. The spirit was visible in their learning progress during the training and the Q&A session. They had a chance to discuss, train, and apply their obtained knowledge directly at the trainings. Those practices will help the participants to grow their 33 businesses.

Hani Siti Nuraini, a participant from Mulya Sejati Village, said, “I already have a SME called “The Rujakan”. However, I have been operating the business heedlessly. For example, I didn’t mind little profit, but through the training, I learned how to estimate profits, prepare production, and manage finances.”

Hopefully, the training provided by AWS and Habitat Indonesia will create SME actors who can manage their finances properly and possess a broad business knowledge. Moreover, those SME actors are expected to acquire a strong entrepreneurship mentality that will help them to grow their businesses through various circumstances and challenges.
