Udayana University's Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) celebrated their 56th anniversary with an inspiring theme, "Accelerating Growth, Shaping Tomorrow". This theme is represented by dragons with blue and orange colors, which depict prosperity, natural resources, and a strong university identity. The dragon, in this case, symbolizes prosperity and natural resources in the concept of Balinese Hindu mythology. The blue color symbolizes the identity of Udayana University, while the orange color reflects the Faculty of Economics and Business. The combination of blue and orange illustrates that the Faculty of Economics and Business is a unit that cannot be separated from Udayana University. This activity became special because it involved cooperation between the FEB Family Board and the alumni. The FEB Unud Alumni Association is chaired by Mr. Widana Karya and Mr. Anak Agung Widya Putra, who served as Chairman of the 56th BKFEB Anniversary. Through this event, it is hoped that it will further strengthen the FEB family ties consisting of lecturers, staff, students, and alumni.

The 56th Anniversary of BKFEB Unud was held from September 1 to 2, 2023, chaired by Dr. I Made Endra Kartika Yudha, S.E., M.Sc. The 56th Anniversary of BKFEB has begun with community service activities, which are one of the theme implementations in the form of focused group discussions (FGD) with outputs in the form of policy briefs and policy memos addressed to the Bali Provincial Government to support the development of Bali and the vision of Indonesia Gold 2045. This activity was led by Anak Agung Ngurah Agung Kresnandra, S.E., MSA, Ak, CA. The next series of activities were the International Conference on Economics and Business (1st Iconics) and the International Seminar. This activity was the first time FEB held an international conference while presenting participants from various countries such as Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Australia, Japan, Germany, the United States, and Timor Leste. Alumni and lecturers also acted as speakers to share experiences and research results. Dr. Ni Nyoman Reni Suasih, S.IP., M.Si., and Dr. Gede Bayu Rahanatha, S.E., M.M., led the event. Furthermore, in order to commemorate the establishment of FEB, a flag ceremony was held, which was attended by the entire FEB academic community. The activity aims to always remember the historic moment of the establishment of the Faculty of Economics and Business at Udayana University. Not only that, on September 1, 2023, FEB also held Tali Kasih Kebersamaan, which aims to give appreciation to contract workers who have been dedicated to providing services to the economic community. Tali Kasih activities are funded independently by Arisan Dharma Wanita Ibu Dosen FEB Unud.

The series of activities ended with a peak celebration of the anniversary. The event was attended by the Rector of Udayana University and the Vice Rectors, Heads of Institutions, Deans of Udayana University, Cooperation Partners, and the entire academic community of FEB Unud. In his speech, Dean of FEB Unud Agoes Ganesha Rahyuda, S.E., M.T., Ph.D., said that the anniversary is an event for contemplation of why we exist, what we have done, and where we are going. Of course, FEB will always improve the quality of education services where the indicator is the accreditation of study programs; currently, 85% of study programs in FEB are accredited as superior or A. In addition, the encouragement, demands, and vision of the rector to become a World Calss University must be outlined in various work programs so that the study programs owned by FEB Unud are able to achieve international accreditation so that the rector's vision can later be realized.

In his speech, Rector of Unud Prof. I Nyoman Gde Antara expressed his congratulations and success to FEB Unud, which was celebrating the 56th anniversary of BKFEB. The Rector hopes that FEB Unud will be able to improve on its achievements. FEB is one of the faculties with high competitiveness both in the field of student affairs, governance, and human resources, so the Rector believes that FEB Unud will be able to achieve even higher achievements. In addition, FEB has also started the internationalization process with the accreditation of several study programs, namely ABEST21 in the Master of Management Study Program, AUN-QA in the Bachelor of Economics Study Program, FEB Unud has been registered as a member of AACSB, and currently 4 study programs are preparing themselves towards FIBAA accreditation.

The 56th Anniversary of BKFEB also featured a flashback of FEB's journey, future plans, awards to the economic community, attractive raffles supported by BPD Bali, as well as art performances as an expression of appreciation from students and staff, enlivened by performances from Jun Bintang and DJ Kaden.
