New Year Celebrations
Over 120 alumni and friends from our partner schools came together for our first alumni event in 2017, a New Year’s drinks gathering to celebrate the new year and exchange best wishes. The partner schools include NYU Stern (our partner for the MSc Global Finance), Kellogg (our partner for the Kellogg-HKUST EMBA), and USC Marshall & Università Bocconi (our partners for the World Bachelor of Business).
Alumni Appreciation Reception
The HKUST Business School has a vibrant and well-connected alumni community thanks to the strong and staunch support provided by our alumni anchors and alumni ambassadors. They have provided all kinds of hands-on help to the School, from organizing major events to supporting our information sessions, admission interviews, professional sharing, student mentoring and more. To recognize their efforts and show our appreciation, we organized an Alumni Appreciation Reception late last year that was attended by close to 100 alumni contributors. Thank you all!
alumniation@Tokyo
Our signature alumni program ‘alumination’ (alumni-in-one-nation) aims to connect and engage HKUST Business School alumni around the global through learning and networking. The first event of 2017 was held in Tokyo on 24 January and featured a seminar on FinTech presented by Professor Veronique A. Lafon-Vinais, Associate Professor of Business Education from the Department of Finance. It attracted more than 40 alumni and students.
