"The GAW” is Global Alumni Relations’ event of the year: an annual opportunity for IE alumni to come back home to IE and reconnect with places, things and people that changed their lives. It is the weekend to reunite, learn, network and socialize with classmates, other alumni and professors, as well as involve their families in the community. The GAW will offer spaces and enjoyment on IE Campus for every member of the IE Alumni Community:
The GAW will take place in Madrid at the Maria de Molina Campus and the new IE Tower. The dates of the event are June 3rd and June 4th, 2022.
Please, head to the "Agenda" section on this website for the most updated version of the agenda, plus further details. Here is a quick summary of the activities planned for the Global Alumni Weekend 2022:
*Please note that activity times and locations are subject to change.
The following Class Reunions will be held at this edition of the GAW:
*For further information regarding Class Reunions, check the "Class Reunion" section in this website.
Class Reunion planning requires at least six months in advance, because we build Class Reunion Committees with one or two representatives from each section per intake, and they support us with spreading the word to their class and with planning activities around the ones we organize at the GAW. Many people also travel for this occasion, which is why planning in advance is important.
This time around, we encourage you to come to the GAW with as many people of your class as possible, get a feel of what this event is like, and start getting excited for your next milestone anniversary (1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 years).
We are currently working very hard to establish the IE Class Reunion tradition! Since we need help from alumni to organize class reunions: are you interested in being part of your future Class Reunion organizing committee? If so, please send us an email to globalalumniweekend@ie.edu.
We look forward to seeing you at the GAW 2022!
Definitely! As we mentioned before every IE Alum is welcome at the GAW. In fact, we encourage you to join the event.
