May 12, 2015 18 students of MBA program of Harvard University informally met with graduates of AlmaU (previously IAB) MBA program.  During the meeting, they discussed the differences in the form and content of training at two universities, and found similarities. The main purpose of the event was to help MBA students from different backgrounds exchange their ideas and experience and get to know each other.

The meeting started with a welcome speech of the president of AlmaU Assylbek Kozhakhmetov. He expressed hope than this visit marked as a beginning of development multilateral relations between Harvard University and Almaty Management University.  He was glad that AlmaU was the platform for dialogue of different cultures, expertise and innovation.
