The IMD Alumni Association

 - IMD Business School
Created with alumni for alumni

The IMD Alumni Association is the official home to a global network of extraordinary leaders who share ideas and shape the future for a more sustainable, prosperous, and inclusive world.

About

The IMD Alumni Association enables alumni to connect with IMD – and each other – through its powerful network. Alumni will be able to access the Association through the MyIMD platform to explore events, browse lifelong learning opportunities and online directories, and much more.

Advantages include:

  • Belong to a truly global IMD Community
  • Grow your network
  • Keep learning
  • Stay close to your school

The purpose of the Association is to complement what the individual Alumni Clubs are doing locally, what degree program Classes do with their cohorts and what IMD’s thematic Communities offer, namely, to support, engage and continue to develop leaders who will transform organizations and contribute to society. It neither overrides nor replaces these other initiatives, rather will serve as the gateway to a full and truly global alumni experience. 

Connect with a vast global network of IMD alumni who are shaping the future of business

This network is a valuable resource for career development, mentorship, job opportunities, and business partnerships.

Continuous learning through symposia, webinars, guest speaker events, I by IMD, and IMD programs

These educational offerings help alumni stay up-to-date on industry trends, develop new skills, and expand their knowledge base.

Bespoke professional and personal development with IMD certified coaches and alumni mentors

These resources can support alumni in their career advancement and job search efforts.

Be inspired and inspire others

Inspiration unlocks creativity, increases productivity, and boosts confidence, satisfaction, and wellbeing. It incites you to learn, take action and progress. The networks, events, information and insights offered by the IMD Alumni Association are key enablers in your own motivation journey.

Being an IMD Alum is best recognised, beyond the academic achievement, by the lives that you lead. Remarkable lives that transform the organizations you work in and the wider world around you.

You never truly leave IMD behind because the relationships you establish with people from around the world are enduring, and the impact the learning experience has on your career and your outlook on the world is nothing short of life altering.

The Association is important because it allows alumni to stay connected, irrespective of where they live or how they wish to continue their relationship with IMD. Now those who do not live near a club or who are global nomads will also be able to have a rich alumni experience.
