Inaugural Summer Retreat

On July 24, 2026, the Business Titans Alumni Board (BTAB) came together at the Golleher Alumni House for its inaugural Summer Retreat, a full day of connection, collaboration, and planning for the year ahead. Alumni spanning decades and industries dove into shaping the Board's structure and priorities, generating ideas across our four core pillars: community, career support, storytelling, and giving back.

It was a strong first step for BTAB, and the energy from the day is already carrying into what's next.
