On 30 December 2013, the first chapter in the People's Republic of China of the Graduate Institute was launched in Shanghai. The launch took place at the elegant Compass Bar of the Peninsula Hotel.
The Shanghai Chapter intends to bring together alumni from the Institute working and studying in the Shanghai area, but also to give advice to potential students and to host special events, such as for professors and other alumni of the Institute who visit Shanghai.
The chapter is also looking forward to cooperating with Swissnex Shanghai and their coordination office for Swiss university alumni.
The next gathering will be a lunch on Sunday 9 February 2014. Anyone interested in joining should send an e-mail or sign up to the below listed LinkedIn group.
