• The launch of Pertemuan Humas Muda Indonesia (Indonesian Young Public Relations Meetup) to prepare and support future PR leaders across the nation.
• The official release of the "50 Years of PERHUMAS" book. The book explores PERHUMAS' evolution and continued commitment to the PR industry since its conception.
