Business Speaker Series
I never attend as many special lectures as I would want, but it’s always good to know that they’re happening and that students have the opportunity to broaden their education beyond the classroom by attending. The series developed by the The Institute for Business in the Global Context (IBGC) for this spring looks particularly interesting. In announcing the line-up, the folks over at IBGC describe the IBGC Speaker Series as having “provided Fletcher students with substantive networking and recruiting opportunities with relevant global business leaders for the past 12 years.” Updates to the lineup can be found on Twitter @IBGC_Fletcher.
