Our first-ever Alumni Dinner with the Dean reception in the United Arab Emirates this past Sunday was an intimate and memorable evening that was heartily enjoyed by all in attendance. Held at the Sofitel Dubai Downtown, some of our most passionate and accomplished alumni in the region were invited to join this occasion to hear the latest exciting updates on their alma mater directly from our Dean, Professor Hongbin Cai, who shared the most recent developments at HKU Business School including our further integration in the mainland and growing internationalization. Other key representatives from HKUBS in attendance included Sachin Tipnis, Senior Executive Director of Taught Postgraduate Programmes; Adrian Chan, Executive Director of Executive Education; Alice Hui, Head of Development & Alumni; and Dr. Adam Yan, Head of Strategic Partnerships. Our alumni also had the pleasure of meeting and mingling with senior regional executives from the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in Dubai, Bank of China, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives, GBS Dubai, and Qeen.ai.

It is expected that the school’s presence in the UAE will only continue to fortify in the years to come, given the dynamic economy in the region and multiple One Belt, One Road synergies. This shall be in all likelihood, just the first of many alumni gatherings in the Middle East. A sincere thank you to all who made time to join with us to celebrate the moment together!
