Stay connected – in a way that suits you

When we ask alumni what they value most about staying connected to CBS, one of the most frequent answers is staying in the loop academically. To help you do just that, we have asked three CBS professors to recommend a good research-based summer read.

There are also many other ways to stay connected, and this issue of CBS Alumni Update explores some of those ways. Find out why British business angels chose to visit CBS and how alumni can help young entrepreneurs. Learn how the “FLØK” mentoring network bridges the gap between student and business life. And meet one of the mentors, who is an HR business partner in Qatar.

Remember to join us and 18,000 alumni in CBS Alumni’s LinkedIn group.

As always, we welcome your comments, suggestions and feedback.

Enjoy your summer!

Helene Brøndholt Nielsen, Head of Alumni Relations
