Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) has presented the prestigious Ganesa Wirya Jasa Utama award to Wiza Hidayat, Founder & CEO of Arkadia Works, in recognition of his significant contributions to infrastructure development and educational endowment at the Faculty of Industrial Technology.

The award ceremony was held as part of the 105th Anniversary celebration of Engineering Higher Education in Indonesia (Pendidikan Tinggi Teknik di Indonesia, PTTI).

Wiza has served a key role in leading ITB’s endowment fund initiatives. Wiza serves as an Industry Practitioner Lecturer, and is a member of the Advisory Board of Industrial Engineering & Engineering Management ITB.
