We’re very excited to be visiting Washington D.C. again, and it would be great to see you at our flagship alumni event at the National Press Club. We hope that you will join us in reconnecting with King's and your fellow alumni on Thursday 27 April at 18.30.

Our guest speaker will be Dr Catherine Tilley. Dr Tilley is a Lecturer in Business Ethics & Sustainability and Impact Director, Centre for Sustainable Business – a new King’s Business School initiative launching later this year. Dr Tilley’s research examines the ways in which people in companies incorporate social and environmental sustainability into their decision-making and the ways in which complex systems (such as transport networks) respond to climate pressures. Prior to King’s, Catherine spent nearly 20 years as a management consultant at McKinsey.

Dr Tilley will be joined by Professor Stephen Bach, Executive Dean of King’s Business School and recently appointed Interim Vice President (People & Talent). This will mark Professor Bach’s first visit as part of the US Tour, and we look forward to introducing him to the alumni community. Professor Bach will share updates from King’s, including highlights about the world-changing impact of King’s research and our international outreach.
