How do we stay connected to Babson’s global network of more than 42,000 alumni?

We bring Babson to them.

The Alumni and Friends Network hosts more than 400 events around the world every year. Among those events: Babson Connect in Miami and New York City, where faculty, staff, current students, parents, corporate partners, and alumni come together for a night of networking and thought leadership.

Held on January 14 in Manhattan, Babson Connect: New York featured a panel on cyber security. Babson alumni and industry experts discussed trends and career opportunities in the industry. On January 15 in Miami, the conversation featured a panel of women in leadership positions discussing their career paths and keys to continued success..

Before the events, current students took part in career treks with our Centers for Career Development to visit local companies in each city.
