This event is jointly organized by the Koppelman Student Leadership Council and the Koppelman Dean’s Office. We have invited an exciting group of industry executives, alumni, and recruiters to speak at the event to discuss the future of work from their individual and industry perspectives. Please refer to the attached document for details of the program and speakers. This is not only a great opportunity to learn about the future of the industries you are going to work for, but also great networking opportunities with the speakers and recruiters of each session.
Lunch will be provided for each of the sessions at noon-12:30 p.m., as well as Koppelman School of Business memorabilia such as water bottles, hats, shopping bags, and other items to choose. Students who complete all four sessions will receive an attendance certificated signed by Dean Qing Hu.
RSVP by Noon on Friday, October 28 is highly recommended, given the limited capacity of the room for each session.
