Apr 24, 2016 – The headquarters of Citibank Indonesia, in Jakarta, hosted the leadership teams from Jakarta student companies on Monday 18 April. These students spent a day learning about the world of business from banking professionals with the objective of applying the knowledge gained during the experience to the operation of their own small businesses. The students represented companies operating at State High schools 6, 28, 58, 60, 66 Jakarta and SLB Santi Rama – a school for the hearing impaired. Students spent time with Elvera N Makki, SVP, Country Head Corporate Affairs Citi Indonesia, Meiliany Hutasoit, Asistant Vice President Human Resources, Nanda Nandiana, Vice President Marketing and Arfidyanti Vernita, Senior Vice President Finance.

Thanks to the personnel from Citibank the students will be better placed to ensure their very own businesses operate successfully and achieve their goals. This experience was just one of the components of the Citibank supported ‘Growing the Spirit Program’ improving Youth Economic Opportunities through direct service.
