The David Eccles School of Business is proud to host Eccles Alumni Forums—a series of engaging gatherings held 2–3 times each year.
Designed for our alumni community, these forums provide opportunities to reconnect with peers, gain insights into emerging industry trends, and explore solutions to pressing community challenges. Together, we share ideas, expand networks, and discover new ways to grow our careers and make a lasting impact.
Thank you to all who attended our Fall 2025 event!
