The School of Business and its alumni association co-organised a cocktail reception last Wednesday (8 March) to provide an opportunity for over 130 alumni across cohorts, friends and fellows from HKBU to strengthen relations and keep abreast of the University’s latest developments.

 

In his welcoming speech, President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Roland Chin said: “Alumni define the University. Your success defines our success. We count on all of you to come back often and be successful, to help our next generation of students, and to bring the University to new heights.” 

 

Dean of Business Professor Edward Snape shared key updates on the School’s recent development. He said: “Alumni have been supporting us in accreditation, speaking to students as industry experts, co-organising activities, as well as providing business cases for our research team.” He encouraged alumni to continuously support the School in realising its ambitious goals, particularly in injecting international components into student life.
