A Practice Built at the Intersection of Two Worlds

Majapahit Group was founded on a conviction: that the US–Indonesia bilateral relationship, one of the most consequential but least well-served corridors in international commerce, deserves a professional services firm with true expertise on both sides.

The firm's principal holds an MBA from a top-ranked US business school, a Bachelor of Law from Indonesia, and a decade of professional experience spanning corporate law at a leading global law firm, emerging markets investment at a climate-focused fund, enterprise risk and M&A advisory at a Fortune 100 financial institution, and government affairs at the provincial level in Indonesia. This combination is rare — and it is precisely what clients navigating cross-border transactions, asset movements, and trade relationships need.

The name Majapahit is a deliberate reference to the great maritime empire that once united the Indonesian archipelago with the broader Southeast Asian and Indian Ocean world — a civilization that understood, centuries before modern finance, that prosperity flows across borders.
