Dr. Nisful Laila, SE., M.Com. (Deputy Dean 2 of FEB Unair) became the moderator on the webinar event resulting from 27 universities from ASEAN countries, with the topic "Strengthening the Internationalization of Southeast Asian Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSMES) in 4.0 Era" with a team from FEB Unair namely Prof.Dr. Raditya Sukmana, SE., MA., Dr. Achsania Hendratmi, SE.,M.Si., Shochrul Rohmatul Ajija, SE., M.Ec.

This international scale webinar discusses how to strengthen the internationalization of Southeast Asia's micro, small & medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the era 4.0, where the corona virus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic has triggered a massive global crisis that has never happened before and significant impact on the Southeast Asian economy. MSMEs in Southeast Asia, like those around the world, have been greatly affected by the pandemic. In contrast to large companies, MSMEs are often challenged by financial constraints. As a result, these are challenging times for many MSMEs in ASEAN and around the world.

"Serving as a moderator on the webinar event from the collaboration of 27 universities from ASEAN countries feels fun even though the preparation is quite long and detailed because it is done online with the inter -country committee. Every night the meeting to ensure the VIP comes, ensuring the technology used is safe, formulating the implementation plan and to conduct a survey of 400 participants who attended from various countries," Nisful said.
