The inauguration marked an important milestone in strengthening the strategic role of private universities in West Java as they respond to higher education challenges in the era of digital transformation and globalization.

    The event was attended by the Chair of APTISI Central Board, the Head of APTISI West Java Province, 86 members of the APTISI West Java Executive Board, and invited guests from various stakeholders. These included representatives of the West Java Provincial Government, the West Java Regional Office of the Ministry of Law, and PT Pos Indonesia Regional 3 West Java. The inauguration of the 2025–2030 board followed the APTISI West Java Regional Assembly held on December 18, 2025. Through a formatur mechanism, the new board structure was formed representatively, involving academics, university leaders, and key figures from various private higher education institutions in West Java, with the aim of strengthening a professional, collaborative, and quality-oriented organizational structure.

    In her remarks, Steering Committee Chair Prof. Dr. Hj.

She expressed hope that the newly appointed board would enhance synergy, collaboration, and deliver broad benefits for the development and progress of private higher education institutions in the province.
