Given the fantastic success of our first 2010 Sciences Po Wednesday, we will be holding our next one on 3 March from 7pm again at the Long Bar of the Royal Automobile Club (RAC), 89 Pall Mall, SW1.
Bookings are only open now to up-to-date members (to get your password to register online, please email srambosson@venipartners.com). There are 50 places available for the event.
Sciences Po Wednesday is a monthly gathering which is devised simply to give the opportunity to Sciences Po alumni and UK-based students to meet, catch up and exchange in an informal context. It is a valuable way for students/graduates to obtain career advice from more seasoned alumni.
Our partners from student career group Sciences Po Avenir will attend this Sciences Po Wednesday on 3rd March. We hope to help them reach out to Alumni in the UK and facilitate discussions regarding internship & job opportunities for young Sciences Po graduates. So if you haven’t had a chance to link up with Sciences Po Avenir so far, please join us on the 3rd of March at the RAC.
