Alum Symposia
Our headline events, however, are our alum symposia, hosted and organized by alums for alums. The first alum symposium was organized in London in 1987, on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the College.
Since then, the European Alum Council has organized 17 in-person events in different countries, and a virtual one, each attracting alums, students and guests from all over the world.
In Asia, the first symposium was organized in 2016 in Honk Kong, followed by gatherings in Singapore and India.
There are few things more joyful than spending the weekend with fellow alums listening to inspiring speakers in exciting destinations!
