2010 Annual Alumni Dinner

 

 

 

The Annual Alumni Dinner is Melbourne Business School’s (MBS) flagship event for its global community. It is a highlight of the School’s social calendar and regularly attracts over 600 leaders of business, government and community sectors who travel from across Australia, and beyond. For decades the dinner has brought together alumni, friends and guests of the School.
