Interactions at the HIMTI Senayan booth were warm and full of familiarity. HIMTI’s committee members were quick to explain what HIMTI is, its role for School of Computer Science students, and its flagship programs, including TECHNO 2026: NOVA, the Welcoming Party that brings together SoCS students from various BINUS campuses in one shared moment. For international students, the idea of a cross campus event like this stood out as something fresh, offering a chance to connect with fellow BINUS students beyond their own campus community.

What made the moment even more memorable was how language and culture never stood in the way of getting to know one another. Conversations at the booth flowed naturally in both Indonesian and English, shifting with whoever stopped by. HIMTI’s spirit of kinship proved to be truly universal, reflected in the equally strong enthusiasm from both local and international students eager to learn more about HIMTI as a second home within campus life.

Behind the scenes, the success of the Senayan leg of the Expo did not happen by chance. Weeks of coordination between the HIMTI committee and the Senayan campus team went into making sure the booth’s cyberpunk themed decorations, the Otty mascot appearances, and the flow of information about TECHNO 2026 could all translate smoothly to an international audience, while still keeping the same warmth and energy that defined the Expo across other regions.

Through the Expo at BINUS @Senayan, HIMTI proved that its spirit of togetherness and collaboration knows no boundaries, not of campus, language, or nationality. The presence of both international and national students at the same booth stood as a clear reflection of how HIMTI wants to be known: an inclusive, warm organization ready to embrace every SoCS student, wherever they may be.
