Last month, the World Bachelor in Business (WBB) program broke geographical barriers and organized its first virtual “WBB Get-Together” social event series. Gathering 130 alumni and students from over 30 countries across Asia, Africa, Americas, Europe, and Oceania, the series re-connected alumni and students from the first graduate class of 2017 to class of 2024 where current students also learned about the alumni’s work experience.

Program representatives from all WBB partners – Bocconi University, HKUST, and the University of Southern California – also participated in the events and caught up with alumni working in various industries worldwide.

Held via an interactive web-based platform, the events simulated an in-person networking experience, where participants could easily navigate around the event and engage in small group conversations.
