Forté MBA Forums     exhibitor info

Forté MBA Forums are highly interactive, whether they are virtual or in person. These events feature a business school/exhibitor fair, school presentations, admissions panels, and a fireside chat on how the MBA can open doors for early-career professionals. Attendees also have the opportunity to network with sponsors, school reps, and one another.

Every year, Forté MBA Forums are held in late summer and fall to educate potential MBA candidates about business careers and opportunities in graduate education. These events offer business and school leaders the chance to connect with potential MBA candidates, and share their experiences and insight in an informal setting.

We are excited to offer both in-person and virtual MBA Forums again this year. Attendees and member schools are invited to choose the events that work best with their schedules.
