THE GLOBAL ALUMNI SUMMIT 2014—LONDON London campus visit After an intense morning, alums were taken to Hult House for a trip down memory lane. For some, it brought back memories of their time there, while those who had studied at our other campuses had the chance to see what makes the London campus such a popular Hult destination. During the visit, Chief Operating Officer Chris Holmes gave a presentation on the exciting developments across all Hult campuses, while Career S ervices Director Paula Quinton-Jones updated alums on the fantastic efforts of Hult Career Services. With the sun shining over the capital and the formal summit events wrapped up, it was time for alums to enjoy the rest of their day exploring London, before heading to the evening’s cocktail reception and gala dinner. The evening celebrations Another purpose of gathering everyone at the annual summit is to have a great time, in great company! Suited, booted, and looking ever so glamorous, the alums arrived for the cocktail reception ahead of the evening’s gala dinner and post-summit parties. With a welcome speech from Shareena Hatta, Global Director of Alumni, to kick things off, Chief Academic Officer Mukul Kumar thanked the alums for their dedication and efforts to keep the Hult Alumni spirit well and truly alive. Sitting down to dinner, it was fantastic to see old and new friends discussing their achievements since graduating from Hult, and chatting with the faculty—a surprise visit from Mike Grandinetti, Professor of Entrepreneurship, Innovation, Management, and Marketing at Hult, had camera-shy alums posing for pictures in no time! As the evening continued onto various after parties organized by alums, it was a great end to an intense but extremely successful summit. So, here’s hoping we see you at the next one! hult.edu/alumni 7
