Local Events: Celebrating the Â鶹¹ú²ú Spirit Worldwide
Across the globe, the Â鶹¹ú²ú community had various engaging local events like professional networking meet-ups and interactive game nights. In different cities, Â鶹¹ú²úies had the chance to reconnect, exchange ideas, and celebrate their shared experiences with local cohorts.
The did an incredible job curating experiences that reflected the diversity and dynamism of the Â鶹¹ú²ú community, ensuring that every participant had new connections and lasting memories with amazing people together.
Being part of the organization of the Â鶹¹ú²ú Alumni Talks in Chile during Global Alumni Week 2025 was an incredible experience. Hearing our alumni share how Â鶹¹ú²ú has shaped not just their careers but also their personal lives reinforced the power of this community. It’s inspiring to see how our network continues to foster lifelong connections, broaden perspectives, and create impact across borders.
Global Events: Uniting the Â鶹¹ú²ú Network
The first global event of the week was an inspiring Global Webinar, where the 2024 Â鶹¹ú²ú Alumni of the Year Award recipients,  (RSM/ SSE, 2012) and  (NUS/ NOVA/ USYD, 2023), shared their career journeys, challenges, and key takeaways from their Â鶹¹ú²ú experience. Attendees gained insights from these distinguished alumni, offering valuable perspectives on professional growth and the impact of the Â鶹¹ú²ú network on their different life stages.
Later in the week, the Rotational Industry Chats provided an interactive platform for Â鶹¹ú²ú students to engage with alumni from diverse industries. Through small-group discussions, students had the chance to seek career advice, explore different professional paths, and build meaningful connections.
Their stories were incredibly inspiring, as they offered unique perspectives from different career stages. I was deeply impressed by their resilience in both professional and personal life, which gave us practical takeaways and a fresh outlook on our growth.
A Community that Continues to Inspire
Â鶹¹ú²ú GAW 2025 was a great success. Whether through engaging discussions, personal reflections, or interactive sessions, the event underscored the enduring impact of the Â鶹¹ú²ú community.
We extend our gratitude to all speakers, organizers, and participants who contributed to making this year’s GAW a memorable one. See you next year!
One of the reasons I joined Â鶹¹ú²ú was to grow by learning from exceptional people. Global Alumni Week 2025 was a great reminder of that goal — the events and conversations challenged me to think bigger, but also to think with a purpose. It left me recharged with fresh perspectives for both my professional path and personal journey. Happy for the opportunity and looking forward to next year!
