Luncheon with Dean Maglaras Hosted by HK Women’s Committee

Over 60 alums from a range of backgrounds, generations and geographies attended the Alumni Women’s lunch to celebrate the impact of CBS graduates both regionally and globally, and to support the next generation of female leaders.  

The lunch was the third event organized by the Women’s Committee of the CBS Alumni Club of HK (CBSACHK), and was an impressive showing of friendship and unity across our alumni network. Present at the event kick-off were Amy Fong ’96, CBSACHK Co-President; Ciamic Moallemi, William von Mueffling Professor of Business; Esther Ma ’92, Co-Chair of the Women’s Committee of CBSACHK (via Zoom); Ann Cha ’04, Co-Chair of the Women’s Committee of CBSACHK (via Zoom); and Linda Ho McAfee ’73, Board of Overseers. Committee chairwomen, Esther Ma and Ann Cha, welcomed Dean Maglaras to Hong Kong. 

The Women’s Committee’s campaign to raise $250,000 to name a conference room for CBS Women in Asia was announced, forming a part of the larger Manhattanville Women’s Initiative. The initial fundraising target was achieved through the support of the alumni community in Asia, however, the Committee continues to encourage participation to exceed this target.
