Alumni Reception in Hong Kong

Dr Tine Koehler, Lecturer in Management (International Business) at the Faculty of Business and Economics, is delighted to invite you to an alumni event in Hong Kong on Thursday 12 January hosted by the Faculty of Business and Economics.
Dr Koehler will be accompanying a group of business and economics students undertaking the Global Consulting Project subject in Hong Kong. Interaction with alumni is a highlight of the program for these students and, as such, your attendance would be very valuable.
Dr Koehler will make a short presentation highlighting current research on the value of international, cross-cultural work engagements on the competencies of students, graduates and executives. This includes some data drawn from previous cohorts of the Global Consulting Project. The presentation acknowledges in particular the crucial role that company hosts play in advancing students personal and professional development.
At this alumni reception, you will have the opportunity to:
- meet other alumni living and working in Hong Kong;
- hear from current students about global study opportunities offered by the Faculty, such as the Global Consulting Project;
- make new connections and network with like-minded professionals, including representatives from the companies hosting this year's practicums; and
- act as an alumni ambassador to current students.
For recent graduates, this is a valuable opportunity to start establishing networks in the business community with fellow alumni. The Alumni Association in Hong Kong is an active network, providing a range of events for alumni in Hong Kong throughout the year.
It is essential that you register your attendance online by 3 Jan - please click on the RSVP link below.
