Switzerland
Presentation
The SKEMA Alumni Switzerland Club was created in 2008.
It is run by 3 ambassadors in Geneva and Zurich: Delphine Catteau (SK 2013), Xavier Tanazacq (SK 2009) and Yann Thiel (SK 2014).
“When I arrived in Geneva in 2013, I quickly got in touch with the local alumni club. After attending my first event (raclette at the skating rink), I contacted the ambassadors to let them know I was interested in helping them run the club. After 7 years as ambassadors they wanted to pass the baton. Delphine Catteau and I agreed in the blink of an eye to take over. Since then, we have been organising 3 formal after-work events per year as well as some informal get-togethers to keep the network spirit alive in a convivial atmosphere. For the future, we would like to organise themed events with SKEMA and foster inter-school networking in Geneva.” Xavier Tanazacq, ambassador.
Club events include after-work meetups, wine tastings, and professional events.
Our alumni mainly work in: Banking/Finance, Watchmaking, and the Luxury sector.
