This partnership with FAHLA is an essential step toward achieving that,” she said.
FAHLA welcomed the partnership as an opportunity to support Indonesia’s healthcare workforce through the transfer of global expertise, advanced technologies, and international professional standards. The collaboration is also expected to expand Fujifilm’s impact within the healthcare ecosystem while contributing to higher-quality medical services nationwide.
Through this partnership, UNAIR aims to build a strong, innovative, and future-oriented environment for learning and applied research. This strategic initiative reinforces UNAIR’s effort to position itself as a university capable of producing highly skilled and globally competitive professionals.
