SOM Alumni in Sao Paolo, Brazil
SOM Alumni in Sao Paolo, Brazil had an event on the January 7th to kick off the new Brazilian SOMAA Chapter. Anderson Thees 03 reported It was very interesting, with people from various years. Besides the interesting exchange of experiences (including a shocking contrast of job markets at graduation) we also had a few ideas for future events, including recurring happy-hours and events together with Yale Alumni at large and the "MBAAB - MBA Alumni Brazil" - an organization of more than 500 Brazilians who attended business schools in the USA or Europe. Barbara Mattos('97)and I represent SOM at MBAAB.
For the kick off, we had: Jon Toscano 1997, Claudio Omagari 2001, Ricardo M. Cavalheiro 2002, Anderson Thees 2003, Humberto Soares 2003,
Thompson Lin 2004, Luis Roberto Prandini 2005
I ended up with lots of leftovers, and since a few others returned to Sao Paulo in the following days, we did a second round, nicknamed
"LeftOver", on the 23rd. In the second one we had: Gustavo Gasparini 2002, Ricardo M. Cavalheiro 2002, Anderson Thees 2003, Flavia Fonseca 2003, Ricardo Joseph 2003
I really enjoyed organizing this event, and hope to have many more in the future.
