It is that time of the year that students at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business journey the globe as part of career-related and/or geography-specific treks to enrich their Booth education and network with alumni.

In this vein, the Chicago African Business Group and the Emerging Markets Group bring the Chicago Booth Africa Trek to Johannesburg, South Africa (March 17 – 21) and Nairobi, Kenya (March 22 – 28) where we will meet with more than 20 companies in the region.

We will host a Student-Alumni Fusion Networking Event on 20 March. The event is a great opportunity for students and alumni to share career experiences, relate Booth stories, and connect with others sharing a passion for Booth, business and the African continent. There will be 15+ students from Chicago Booth, several executives from local companies, fellow alumni and you.
