Dear fellow alumni,

 

The alumni spirit was in full force at our recent Alumni Choir concert “Initium Novum” where singers across generations came together, creating an unforgettable evening of music and celebration. In this issue of the Newsletter, we spoke with our two talented alumni musicians, Elena Chiu (2006) and Jason Liu (2014), who played a vital role in making this concert a success. They shared with us their music journey and interesting tidbits from the concert, while treasuring the enduring bonds that unite our alumni through our love of music.

 

Recognising the need for a revitalised approach, we introduced a fresh and immersive format for our 2024 Summer Gathering that has left a lasting impression on all who attended. In order to create a more engaging and interactive experience for our alumni, photo booths, nostalgic refreshment corners and a table tennis table were set up for attendees to socialise in a relaxing and fun atmosphere. Judging by the laughter during the event and positive feedback afterwards, the new format was very well received.

 

Meanwhile, in our ongoing efforts to foster a vibrant and interconnected alumni community, I am delighted to announce the formation of two new Chapters under the Industry subcommittee: the Finance Chapter and Legal Chapter. Our aim is to encourage alumni within the respective profession to connect and collaborate, to facilitate networking and foster mentorship, and to exchange professional knowledge and updates. More specifically, we would like to provide a platform for the younger alumni, namely current university students and recent graduates, to achieve professional growth through forging valuable connection with their experienced big brothers and sisters. Recently, the inaugural dinner gathering of each Chapter took place with warm reception, attracting a diverse array of alumni from various sectors of the respective industry. The enthusiasm was palpable, with many members connecting immediately after the dinner and already planning for the next networking event.

 

As always, I look forward to seeing you in our upcoming events and activities.
