Pan-European Reunion 2006

Over October 20-22, 2006, over 700 alumni and guests attended the Columbia Business School Pan-European Reunion in Rome, Italy for a wonderful weekend of presentations, special events and international networking.

To those of you who attended, thank you for making the weekend such a success! We look forward to hearing your feedback so that we can plan for future global alumni events.

The weekend included a two-day Symposium with nearly 40 alumni and guest speakers at the beautiful Complex Santo Spirito:

The Welcome Reception was held at the incredible Palazzo Colonna:

And the highlight of the weekend, the Gala Dinner and Italian Fashion Show, took place at the extraordinary Villa Medici:

The weekend also included a pre-Symposium private tour of the Vatican Museums, and special cultural tours to the Coliseum, the Borghese Gallery and Tivoli.

Plans for future events are already in progress; Columbia University will be hosting an alumni program in Paris in September 2007, and Columbia Business School will host its inaugural Pan-Asian Reunion in October 2008 in Hong Kong.

We are grateful to our Pan-European Reunion sponsors for their support of the event, to the Rome and Milan alumni clubs for their participation in planning the event, and to all our alumni who helped make our seventh Pan European Reunion the best attended yet!

We look forward to seeing you at a future alumni event soon.

Warm regards,
