After FOUR successful years of hosting this multi-industry trek, we’re providing this unique opportunity exclusively to newly admitted MBA students from leading business schools. If you are starting your MBA program in the fall of 2020 and are looking to forge important connections, become more savvy about your MBA career options, and get a head start on your MBA pivot, do not miss the Poets&Quants preMBA Networking Festival!

Why Attend?

Early access. Attendees of the Poets&Quants preMBA Networking Festival are the first in their cohort to meet and network with executives and recruiters from the world’s largest MBA employers. This is an opportunity to not only learn how to, but to make real connections with recruiters before they reach campus in the fall.

Expand your personal network. The preMBA Networking Festival isn’t just about meeting executives and recruiters. It’s about connecting with your peers and weaving together contacts and friendships with new admits from all over the world, some of whom may be attending your program in the fall! Regardless of where you’ve come from, you’ll meet others facing the same  opportunities and challenges unique to being a woman pursing an MBA.

Engage your networking muscles. This isn’t about asking for a job. This event is about making real connections. To do that over a short interaction, you’ll have to learn how to network like a pro. Before the event even begins, accepted attendees will receive a guide covering more than just networking essentials and will attend a live webinar with tips on how to get the most out of the event. Beginning Thursday night, attendees will be practicing and refining their personal elevator pitch and will have the opportunity to try it out on executives and partners over both festival days.

2020 Festival Schedule:

Thursday May 7th is 5pm - 10pm
