“It was a great event and really well organized. It made me feel proud of being part of this outstanding community. I do believe Alumni are valuable resources for the University because they could represent one of the main actors to bridge Academic World and Business Practise. Therefore, as it was introduced to us during the reunion, I hope there will be more newprojects having collaboration of the business school with the alumni association,promoting the sharing and bidirectional transfer of best practises and pioneering idea from the Academic World to the Business Practises and viceversa; creating value and make a real impact in the local social, academic and business environment (that is the Mission and highest contribution of the Business School). And it is also the reason why I decided to apply and accept to become Alumni Ambassador.”
