AMSA MBA SoCal Mixer, Bridging the B-School Connections in the Region

On October 10, the Asian Management Student Association (AMSA) will take over Hollywood hotspot Ritual Supper Club for a night of networking with other business school students. Held twice a year, the AMSA MBA SoCal Mixer had always attracted over 150 attendees from MBAs all over southern California, including USC, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, UC San Diego, Pepperdine, and Claremont. The MBA SoCal Mixer provides opportunities to broaden our personal network and bridges the MBA programs of business schools here in Southern California. Judging from the consistently overwhelming turnout, the event serves the great demand of MBA students looking to build relationships with other MBA students in the region. For FEMBA student Allan Ark, the benefits were more than that: “As FEMBAs, we seldom interact with the full-time students. The SoCal MBA Mixer was a great event to rub elbows and the like with full-timers and others from the local programs,” he said.

This time, coming back bigger and stronger, AMSA is partnering with USC Marshall’s Graduate Asian Business Society (GABS) to co-host the MBA SoCal Mixer.  But why-- you might ask-- Marshall is our rival in the war of the Golden Briefcase! But remember, “know your enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles, you will never be defeated” (Sun Tzu, the Art of War). The AMSA MBA SoCal Mixer has always been a blast, and with the newly formed partnership with Marshall, it is expected to be even better this time! Come early for free drink tickets, start mingling with MBAs all over SoCal, and stay late for the after party!
