Dear Mannheimers,
we are happy to continue a series we started last year: "Politics@MBS". We will use this venue to invite elected leaders, government officials and others to talk about current policy issues with a business impact.
For this event, Melis Sekmen, member of the German Bundestag from Mannheim, will focus on the topic "Empowering Entrepreneurs: Europe's Strategy for Startup Success".
We are looking forward to having you join us for this event. Seating will be limited to 60 Mannheimers.
Place: MBS Study and Conference Center, Mannheim Palace (This will be an on-site event only)
Time: October 23, starting at 6.30 pm
Seating will be limited to 60 Mannheimers.
An important note on no shows:
In the last couple of years, no shows by Mannheimers at MBS events - i.e. Mannheimers registering for an event and not attending - have become an increasing problem. Most events are either organized or headlined by your fellow Mannheimers or our corporate partners. Sadly, we sometimes had astounding no-show rates.
The consequences for the Mannheim Network are significant: Speakers will not return to MBS, active alumni stop engaging, corporate partners stop working with us. Therefore, the Network Club events this fall are a test run for us. We will closely monitor the no-show rate. We will write to Mannheimers who miss events without deregistering. If no-shows remain a problem, all future Network Club events will require an entrance fee.
So, please, once you know that you will have to miss an event you have registered for, make sure to deregister at least 48 hours before the event. If you have to deregister on short notice, please write an e-mail to alumni@mannheim-business-school.com
The Mannheim Network is your network, it is up to you to keep it going strong. Therefore, please be mindful of the above rules.
Please note our policy concerning visual and audio recordings here.
By registering for MBS ACO events, Mannheimers acknowledge and commit to abide by the MBS Network Honor Code.
