IMD Annual Report 2019

145

In 2019, IMD worked hard to maintain, develop and support a dynamic, diverse and highly- engaged global alumni community as part of its goal to deliver real learning and real impact beyond the classroom. Through its global alumni network and associated activities, IMD aims to support and accelerate the leadership and personal journey of participants beyond their engagement with programs. Participants who complete a program at IMD that meets the alumni eligibility criteria qualify to join an exclusive network of global business leaders. This network acts as a unique source of support, inspiration and opportunity. IMD creates value and opportunity for its alumni community around two focus areas – lifelong learning and powerful business networks.
