Stanford GSB Ignite & Friends: The After-Reunion Mixer
This August, the Stanford GSB Ignite program celebrates its 20th anniversary, with alumni flying in from around the world for the reunion on August 6-8.
Two decades, thousands of alumni across the globe, and countless companies started in its classrooms. The official program wraps Saturday night.
On Sunday evening, we're adding one more chapter and opening the door. This gathering is for Ignite alumni AND for friends from the wider Stanford family who've never met the Ignite crowd: GSB folks from other programs, students and alumni from across campus, and the people building things next to us.
If you're Igniter: come decompress from the reunion, meet cohorts you never overlapped with, and introduce your community to someone new.
If you're not Igniter(yet): come meet one of Stanford's most entrepreneurial communities. Twenty years of founders, operators, scientists, and people who decided to build something. Ask anyone about their cohort. They won't stop talking.
The format is simple: good drinks, good people, one short toast, zero slides. We'll do a light icebreaker early on to mix the room, then get out of the way.
Agenda:
6:00 PM: Doors open
7:00 PM: A toast to 20 years, and one to the next 20
7:10 PM: Back to it
9:00 PM: Official close (unofficially, we know a spot nearby)
Who's in the room:
Stanford Ignite alumni, all cohorts, all campuses
Stanford GSB students and alumni from other programs (MBA, MSx, LEAD, Exec Ed)
The wider Stanford family: engineering, science, and everyone building something interesting
A few friends of the community
A note on RSVPs:
Space is limited. If your plans change, let us know so we can open the spot to someone else. Bring a friend who'd love this room: there's a +1 field in registration.
