AIB Alumni Industry Panels

AIB’s Alumni Industry Panels (AIPs) were first formed in 2020 to harness the expertise, insights and experiences of our diverse and highly skilled alumni members and consult on current trends plus challenges within their industries. Insight from our panels also helps to maintain the currency of our qualifications. Today, over 130 alumni and industry members serve across seven panels to consult regularly on what’s happening in the business world right now, how to evolve the MBA learning content and how AIB can continuously improve the student experience for all.
