The exhibition will include themed pavilions, networking opportunities and cultural experiences, encouraging global connections. As Timor-Leste is a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and in the process of acceding to ASEAN, this event will be the first of its kind to position the country in the global market. It will provide opportunities for national and international traders, manufacturers and industrialists to collaborate and invest in Timor-Leste. The concept of “make it and brand it” aims to promote “Made in Timor-Leste” products in the ASEAN and global markets.
