2026 Alumni Reunion
"Back Home"
Sat. 17 October 2026 | 11:00 - 17:30
MIB Trieste School of Management
Palazzo Ferdinandeo, Trieste
MIB Trieste School of Management and the MIB Alumni Association are pleased to present the MIB Alumni Reunion 2026 - Back Home, which this year returns to Trieste and to the home of our community: Palazzo Ferdinandeo.
Following the editions held in Venice and Milan, we will meet again in the place where, for many of us, the journey began.
A return home to reconnect, share experiences and strengthen the relationships that bring together different generations, professional paths and countries.
This year’s Reunion also introduces a new approach to the programme: the stage will be dedicated entirely to MIB Alumni, who will share their experiences, perspectives and professional journeys.
Above all, the Reunion will be an opportunity to reflect on our community: what we have built, the paths we have followed and the value of a network that continues to grow over time.
The Reunion will also host the MIB Alumni Association Annual Assembly, which this year will include the election of a new Governing Council.
Voting will take place online before the event through an e-voting system. During the Assembly the election results and new Board will be officially announced.
The day will conclude with our traditional Social Dinner.
Renewing the MIB Alumni Governing Council
Applications are open for the next MIB Alumni Governing Council 2026 - 2029.
Bring your experience and ideas to help shape the future of the Community.
Open to Alumni who have completed a MIB Master’s programme and received their Diploma.
The 12 elected members will be announced during the Reunion.
