| FROM LBS MiM Admissions Blog: Sundowners: An LBS Family Evening |
|
By Elizaveta Ivanova, MiM 2023 Sundowners is a fortnightly social event held on campus and organised by different groups (mainly student clubs) at LBS. Each event is themed, with free food and drinks for all. They are a great way to bring the entire LBS community together in an informal environment to build meaningful relationships. They are also a good way to relax from the fast-paced curriculum and networking with peers and the wider community, including MBAs, EMBAs, and even professors.  The first Sundowners of this academic year took place six weeks after the start of the programme. I was amazed by how many interesting people I spoke to. I met people from various backgrounds and fields of expertise, ranging from doctors and people working in the non-profit sector to education specialists. Despite the informal environment, I learned a lot from everyone I talked to. The event is held in the Nash Lounge at the Sussex Place campus which smells like coffee, croissants, and hard work during the day, but transforms into a buzzing hub of energy at night. An LBS ID card is the key to accessing these unforgettable memories; an enjoyable evening filled with eating, talking, dancing, and generally having the time of your LBS life! Once you’re checked in, you get a stamp on the back of your hand: your first social media story for the evening. The venue is divided into two parts: on the upper deck (Nash Cafe) there is music and drinks, and on the lower deck (Nash Kitchen) you can get food and a place to sit. I typically spent most of the evening on the upper deck socialising and enjoying the wonderful weather (depending on the season) on the Front Lawn. Everything I had heard about Sundowners from students and alumni stands true and I would highly recommend it too. I am excited for future events and hope to meet more fellow students as well as all of you considering coming to LBS next year. I will be writing more about my LBS experience. Stay tuned for more updates! Also, feel free to contact me on LinkedIn. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you might have. Learn more about activities, clubs and groups at LBS here.

| FROM LBS MiM Admissions Blog: Memories from Graduate Masters Orientation Day 2022 |
|
By Maria Busz, Student Recruitment Associate MAM As the first term of the academic year draws to a close, we’re looking back on how it all started. In August, we came together to welcome the [b][url=https://www.london.edu/campaigns/masters-degrees/early-career]Graduate Masters[/url] [/b]Classes of 2023. Over 500 students across the four programmes (GMiM, MiM, MFA and MAM) gathered in Central London at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre in Westminster for the start of orientation week. Read about some of our ambassadors’ journeys from prospect to student[b] [url=https://admissionsblog.london.edu/tag/prospect-to-student/]here[/url][/b]. To kick off the day, we heard from Aman Sharma, MAM2020 alumnus, and François Ortalo-Magné, Dean of the School. We were then introduced to the classes of 2023 by Arnold Longboy (Executive Director, Recruitment and Admissions) and Alexandra Barnett (Recruitment and Admissions Director, Graduate Masters) before Aman returned to lead an energiser exercise. After a networking break, Jane Charlton and Oliver Ashby (Executive Director for Degree Programmes & Student Experience and Programme Director for the MiM, GMiM, MAM respectively) led us into the second half of the event . They spoke about the value of the student community and the role it plays in one’s personal, and professional journey. Martin Vilaro Vera, MBA2023 student and the Student Association’s Senior Sports & Clubs Officer introduced the Student Association and shared his experience of LBS’ clubs and associations. The event was wrapped up with a keynote speech and Q&A with Yuri Romanovich Shakhmin, Managing Director of Credit Suisse. There were 545 students in attendance: 237 MiM2023 students, 39 GMiM2024 students, 78 MAM2023 students and 191 MFA2023 students. Here are some quotes that sum up the day: [b]“Today marked the start of a life-long journey full of opportunities, growth and inspiration among diverse like-minded peers from all around the world.” [/b]– Kelvin Neumetzler, MFA 2023 [b]“The orientation day was a first glimpse into what LBS is all about: The outstanding academic experience, the fantastic network, and, most importantly, the welcoming community of fascinating individuals.” [/b]– Niklas Gaertner, MAM 2023 The event included a student group Photo Challenge Activity themed ‘Diverse London’. Here’s the winning photo!

| FROM LBS MiF Admissions Blog: Leveraging the Masters in Finance community during your research |
Once you have decided to apply for the Masters in Finance (MiF) programme at LBS, there are many ways to conduct your research. We always encourage prospective students to take advantage of an informal review by sending in their CV or LinkedIn profile and speaking to a member of our Recruitment Team. One of the most valuable ways to get insights into the programme and School is to speak to our students and alumni about their Masters in Finance journey. We are able to match you with a student ambassador from a specific region or sector to get the insights that are most important to you. Guatemalan student, Carlos Brenner (MiF Full Time 2023), gives an account below of how reaching out to two alumni from his region helped him understand more about the career possibilities, how to maximise his time on the programme and how the programme impacted alumni from his region specifically. “Starting a master’s programme at London Business School can seem daunting, so it is helpful to know that you are not alone. At the start of the programme, I reached out to two Guatemalan MiF alumni who I knew would be able to relate to my experience. I wanted to better understand what I could expect before, during and after the Masters in Finance so I could prepare accordingly. Most importantly, I wanted to know how this experience had impacted other people with similar backgrounds. I was impressed by the trajectory of these two Guatemalan MiF alumni, and wanted to learn how they leveraged their time at LBS to achieve their current roles. Before LBS, Stefano Tomasino was an Associate for Alvarez and Marsal in their Milan office. He initially intended to return to the company after graduating, however, his possibilities broadened and though he chose to continue as an Associate, he joined Evercore at their London offices instead. With the MiF under his belt and his in-depth experience in financial restructuring, debt advisory and distressed M&A, he made another transition by becoming an Associate at Morgan Stanley. Stefano continued to progress and is now an Executive Director overseeing the Capital Structure Advisory and DeSPAC in the EMEA region. I also had the opportunity to chat withJuan Fernando Aldana. He could offer a different perspective because, after 10 years of working in London, he returned to Guatemala when he was recruited to lead the M&A division of one of the country’s largest food and beverage corporations. He came to LBS as a Chevening Scholar, started his London career as an Associate at Deutsche Bank then transitioned to SAB Miller as an Associate Director in their Corporate Finance division. Their stories were inspiring and made me realise how much my life could change after the LBS experience, depending on how I decide to leverage this opportunity. I asked them two important questions; why LBS Masters in Finance, and what personal advice would they give me. Both answered that the prestige and reputation of the LBS brand in business and the financial sector was the main driver. They realised how being members of this community helped them in their job transitions and even further down the line. There were a couple of different recommendations for the second question, and I have decided to share with you the ones that I felt more related to. Stefano mentioned how change can be scary initially but leads to unlocking further possibilities. He recalled how his time at LBS presented an opportunity to grow, challenge his perceptions and fight for bigger ambitions. To be prepared for this, we need to embrace change. Juan Fernando reflected on how LBS brings all of these amazing people together. He recommended being open to meeting all these interesting people and how understanding their cultures and perspectives would broaden my own world. Some essential key takeaways about these conversations are: we have a supportive community at LBS, and depending on the questions you want to answer, you will always find someone who will offer genuine advice and guidance. Also, this experience provides a unique opportunity to change your life and broaden your perspectives and opportunities. So it’s up to us how to make the most out of it!” Want to continue your research? Read more student and alumni stories and reach out to the community here.
