Alumni
As a Minerva graduate, you are part of a lifelong, global network of leaders, innovators, and problem-solvers. Across industries and continents, alumni are connected by a shared approach to thinking, leading, and addressing complex challenges.
This foundation reflects Minerva’s vision to build a more safe, sustainable, and just future, one that alumni continue to advance through their work around the world.
Minerva alumni form a global community that continues to grow across cities and digital spaces.
Supported by alumni volunteers and staff, the network offers ongoing opportunities to connect, collaborate, and contribute.
Get involved: Contact the Alumni Relations team to update your information or explore ways to stay engaged.
Alumni chapters bring the Minerva network into local contexts around the world.
Graduates organize gatherings, welcome new alumni, and create opportunities to exchange ideas across industries and regions. Chapters exist in cities including San Francisco, London, Vancouver, Berlin, and Seoul, with new communities continuing to emerge.
Signature experiences include:
Local gatherings and community events
5-year cohort reunions
Convivium, an alumni-led global homecoming event
The Alumni Council and Minerva provide resources, funding, and guidance to support each chapter’s growth.
Alumni continue to access resources that support long-term professional and personal growth.
