London Alumni Gathering Success!
Newcastle Business School welcomed back Alumni members to an informal gathering at the Institute of Directors offices in Pall Mall last week, for the chance to catch up with old friends, make new ones and network with staff and our Vice Chancellor, Professor Andrew Wathey.
 |
We welcomed over 25 Alumni who had graduated from Northumbria University from areas such as Newcastle Business School, the School of Arts and Social Sciences, School of Law and School of Built Environment.
The event was championed by John Mark Williams, enthusiastic Newcastle Business School Alumnus and CEO at Gateway to London, who had been following our Alumni activity through our LinkedIn pages and wanted to bring together former Newcastle Business School Alumni for an informal, fun evening event.
After the event John commented “
An entertaining session with a lively and engaged group – a good time had by all! Many thanks to the whole group for providing such a positive and buzzing atmosphere for three hours - this was a cracking event! ”
With the success of last week’s event, we’re hoping to establish this group more formally and hope to hold more informal gatherings in and around London, to welcome new members and continue to grow this valuable networking group, over the next few months.
The next London gathering is looking to be organised in May so keep your eyes peeled and visit our LinkedIn Page (http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2452374&trk=myg_ugrp_ovr) or on our events pages (http://www.northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/nbs/events/?view=Standard ) for more information.
