Networking Lunch with the University of Geneva Alumni Community, Sept. 15, 2009
On September 1, swissnex Boston organized a networking lunch with former students of the University of Geneva in the Boston area. The goal of the event was to kick off a real alumni community spirit in Boston and to present the Boston Chapter of the new UNIGE Alumni Online platform, launched in June 2009.
On that occasion Laurent Mieville, Director of UNITEC (the University of Geneva Technology Transfer Office) currently fellow at Boston University, introduced his recent activities and exposed the various way of connecting the University of Geneva and the Boston area.
The lunch was also an opportunity for swissnex Boston to be associated with the celebration of the 450th anniversary of the University of Geneva. The guests were able to watch the conference of the astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, “La Création de l’Univers” (The Origin of the Universe) broadcasted live from Geneva as part of the framework of the anniversary year.
