間眅埶AVs graduates are our greatest contribution to the communities we serve.

It will be my special privilege to join with our Alumni Association this week to honour four remarkable 間眅埶AV graduates at the . The annual awards recognize individuals who have distinguished themselves in their careers and contributed in significant ways to their communities.

The four honourees for 2019 are:

Isabel was named 10th most powerful woman in international business by Fortune magazine in 2018;
