It was an excellent experience; I received outstanding help from InCorp Indonesia (an Ascentium Company). They are looking for the correct counterparts for Portuguese companies. Moreover, they manage and complete all development activities in Indonesia, working with companies, transportation, and consultants/translators. It was very comfortable for us to meet someone who is aware of everything and can help with all the needs we face when entering a new market in Indonesia.
