Welcome
Dear Alumni,As you have experienced for yourself, INSEAD is a unique institution. So, in keeping with the school’s entrepreneurial spirit, and while awaiting the in-person reunion in 2022, we are continuing to innovate around the more traditional reunion programme and bring to you a very special digital reunion!
Recent cohorts can attest that a digital reunion doesn’t have to be any less exciting! We have taken some of the highlight moments of our traditional in-person reunions and incorporated them into a programme that enables you to easily reconnect with the school and your classmates from wherever you are in the world. In addition to an INSEAD update, you can interact with some of your favourite faculty and gather with your class in breakout meetings for good old networking and fun.
I want to thank the class volunteers who, together with the Alumni Reunions team, have enthusiastically dived into developing a tailored programme for you to relive those special INSEAD memories.
Please bookmark this page as it will be updated with more details about the digital reunion, as well as with information about other celebrations for your class and links to your class gift campaigns.
I look forward to sharing some of the amazing stories about how our unique alumni community has come together in these challenging times, demonstrating that INSEAD truly is a Force for Good. See you online!
With best wishes,
Ilian Mihov
Dean, INSEAD

Giving back
All returning classes are fundraising and the majority of alumni make a gift to the INSEAD Fund for their reunion anniversary. The INSEAD Fund is the School’s annual fund, allowing donors to direct their gift to a number of key areas: Scholarships, the Hoffmann Global Institute for Business and Society, Campus Renewal, Faculty & Research, Digital@INSEAD and the Dean’s Fund/Greatest Impact.
Most donors choose the Dean’s Fund/Greatest Impact as this sustains vital programmes like scholarships and research, and supports emerging opportunities, including innovative projects that arise during the academic year.
Alumni who commit to making a legacy gift to INSEAD are also recognised, and if you’re thinking about leaving a gift to INSEAD in your will or estate planning, please contact Linda Eshel who would be happy to help you with this.
All gifts made before 31 December 2021 will be counted to the class total, and also count towards participation in the INSEAD Force For Good campaign.
Of course, donors who make a gift to an area outside of the INSEAD Fund are still counted in the class total. If you would like to learn more about the INSEAD Giving opportunities or to have more details about your own giving history, please contact us:
