Hult Alumni Magazine NEW Edition Hult Alumni Magazine 2017 | Page 5

Welcome

As you know well , Hult is more than just a business school — we aim to provide you with tangible benefits long after graduation . This redesigned Hult Alumni Magazine is just one of the ways we hope to connect you to our amazing alumni community and school news .
One of the biggest developments in our recent history has been the strategic alliance with Ashridge . Shortly after this alliance was finalized , the Board of Hult International Business School decided that the institution had reached a maturity and size to transfer all of its main activities into the domain of the U . S . not-for-profit entity and the U . K . charity . This means these organizations now take full responsibility for the school ’ s operations and the governing structure is similar to other world-class educational institutions . Philip Hult , when asked the significance of this change , said “ Not only does this simplify the operations of the school , but it also means that like other institutions , the school can more easily accept tax-deductible donations from alumni to its U . S . not-for-profit or U . K . charity .”
Today , we have a global alumni network with over 17,000 alumni , spread across 170 countries , built by alumni who attended programs at Hult International Business School , Ashridge Business School , Arthur D . Little School of Management , and Huron University USA in London . Our desire to progress and adapt to suit the ever-changing needs of the international business community remains our number one priority , and we are excited to continually share our progress with you .
Finally , this magazine really does exist for you , so we would love to hear from you . Please contact us at alumnirelations @ hult . edu with ideas or news contributions to the next alumni update .
Happy reading !
