2025 SKK GSB
MBA Run Together |
|
|
Building Energy, Community, and Shared Memories |
|
|
The 2025 SKK GSB MBA Run Together brought together more than 120 students, alumni, and their families for a refreshing day at Olympic Park. Participants enjoyed the autumn weather while strengthening connections across programs and highlighting the strong sense of community at SKK GSB.
It was also a meaningful opportunity for alumni to reconnect in person after some time apart, creating an atmosphere filled with warm conversations and shared moments.
SKK GSB plans to continue hosting Run Together annually, providing more chances for our community to gather and stay connected. We look forward to seeing even more alumni participate in future events.
