RSVP 8/5

By now we all know Suriname is on the edge of something big. Oil & gas are coming, and the question for the past few years has been: who will be ready?

Preparing for this moment means moving beyond headlines and investment figures. Being ready does not mean only building rigs and terminals. It means creating a resilient, diversified economy where oil & gas revenues fund sustainable development. Think of quality public services, education, healthcare and updated infrastructure.

The next few years are a window of opportunity for us. Success will depend on coordinated action, rigorous governance and investments that turn finite resources into lasting prosperity for all Surinamese people.

At this edition of Peers Professional we bring together leaders from aviation, energy, and recruitment to explore what it truly takes to prepare for 2028. What steps did they take to come to this position, what did they learn, and what opportunities do they identify in various sectors in the near future.


So, are you ready to join us at our next Peers Professional on the 8th of May with:

  • Timothy Mendonca, Managing Director, EAG Airport;

  • Jeanifah Asmodimedjo, Senior Technical Professional, Halliburton;

  • Max Apapoe, Director, Jobs.sr.


Expect real insights. Honest perspectives. And the kind of conversations that challenge how you think and what you do next. This is not about waiting for opportunities, it’s about positioning yourself in such a way that you can create your own opportunities.

Please note: This event will be conducted in English, reflecting the international nature of the Future of Suriname. Guests who prefer to ask questions in Dutch are welcome to do so, the moderator will gladly assist with translation.
