30th Anniversary of the Executive MBA Poznań–Atlanta and the MBA Poznań–Atlanta Association
The Association organised a Jubilee Gala to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Executive MBA Poznań–Atlanta PUEB–GSU programme and the 30th anniversary of the Executive MBA Poznań–Atlanta Association.
The event brought together a large number of alumni, Association members, academic representatives, and partners, highlighting the strength of the human capital built over three decades – grounded in knowledge, relationships, friendship, and international cooperation.
Among the distinguished guests were the Rector of the Poznań University of Economics and Business, Professor Barbara Jankowska, the Vice-Rector for Cooperation, Professor Łukasz Puślecki, as well as former Programme Directors and Faculty Members who have contributed to the programme’s development and reputation over the years.
A key part of the evening were speeches delivered by invited graduate speakers, who shared personal reflections on how the Executive MBA programme has influenced their professional and personal journeys. The speakers included Konrad Śniatała, Anna Olichwier, Dawid Jakubowicz, Joanna Kostecka, Professor Marek Karczewski, and Austin Campbell.
The Gala was hosted by Dorota Warakomska, with musical accompaniment provided by the Poznański Kwartet Jazzowy Spóźnieni. Programme and Association partners were also present, supporting the community and its ongoing initiatives.
The Jubilee Gala offered an opportunity to reflect on thirty years of history and reaffirmed that the greatest strength of the programme and the Association lies in its people and the relationships formed within the Executive MBA community.
