FORMER ALUMNI EVENTS

Becoming part of our alumni network opens up a world of opportunities. As an alumni, you’ll join a select community of trailblazers, where meaningful connections and once-in-a-lifetime experiences await.

In the past, we’ve hosted exclusive events like our ‘‘Porsche on Track’’ experience, offering alumni the thrill of high-speed connections on the racetrack, and the Chengdu Adventure, an immersive journey into China’s vibrant innovation landscape. Each event is crafted to not only empower our alumni but also to build lasting memories and partnerships that drive impact in the startup world.
