The Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB) MBA program celebrated its 10th anniversary at the Ancestral Temple in Beijing on Nov 23.

The full-time English MBA program of CKGSB lasts 14 months and selects no more than 60 elites around the globe every year. Since 2003, its MBA program has invited world-class professors to teach -- combining Eastern and Western thought, knowledge and action, and devotion and camaraderie -- to provide each class of MBA students with the best quality business management education. At present, the CKGSB MBA program has 567 young, promising alumni who play a positive role in all walks of life, including the economy.

Under the guidelines of "Taking Advantages, Following Principles, Improving Abilities", CKGSB MBA students not only have a global view, but also have the ability to think regionally.

Four of the CKGSB MBA alumni shared their innovative entrepreneurship ideas in fields of finance, innovation, energy and organic agriculture, framing their stories in regards to career development after school and industry insight.

The CKGSB MBA program launched a series of marketing and financial management lectures specifically for alumni, bringing them the latest trends in economic management theory and practice. Professor Li Haitao, vice-president of the MBA program, said they are building a lifelong learning platform for alumni.
