The Simon School Alumni Network of the Bay Area

The Simon School Alumni Network of the Bay Area strives to connect alumni for the purpose of maximizing the value of the Simon MBA education. The Bay Area Network is organized by and will focus on three development tracks: Professional Development, Social Networking and School Development.

• Professional Development: Professional Development consists of Professional Networking, Continuing Education and Career Services for Alumni.
• Social Networking: We all know the one about how many deals get done on a golf course. As such our social events program is intended to foster networking among local alumni and to support other activities such as school development or local career placement.
• School Development: School Development is presently broken into Career Services for Simon Students, Helping Student Admissions, and Branding Simon.

Now is the time to get involved!  Please take a minute to join our LinkedIn group by visiting http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=853957  and keep an eye out for future emails with information regarding Simon Alumni events in the Bay Area.

We look forward to connecting with you soon!
