Hong
Kong Chapter is the first established outside the United States.
Since its inception,
the Beta Gamma Sigma Alumni Network has served BGS members by providing
networking opportunities and additional valuable benefits. By establishing
alumni chapters in major metropolitan areas, the Network has succeeded
in developing strongly knit communities of business professionals that
have one quality in common: they are all the “best in business.”
As such,
efforts have been, and continue to be, made to further develop the Alumni
Network so that even more Beta Gamma Sigma members can enjoy the benefits
of alumni membership. In the last year, plans for two new alumni chapters
came to fruition. With the addition of the Denver and
Hong Kong metropolitan areas to the BGS Alumni Network,
more people than ever can take advantage of the benefits of alumni membership.
The Denver
Area Alumni Chapter, the 17th chapter in the BGS Alumni Network, and
the first alumni chapter established since 2002, held its Chartering
Reception in September 2004.
Members
of the Board of Governors, Central Office staff, and Beta Gamma Sigma
members in the Denver area were on hand to discuss the new chapter.
Since that time, several steering committee meetings have been held
in the Denver Area, and an official chapter kick-off is being tentatively
planned for May 2005.
Becoming
the 18th chapter in the BGS Alumni Network and the first established
outside of the United States, the Hong Kong Alumni Chapter held its
chartering ceremony on January 22, 2005. Beta Gamma Sigma is very proud
to offer this opportunity to our thousands of members that reside in
Hong Kong.
With the
establishment of these two new chapters, BGS members have more opportunity
than ever to enjoy the advantages of Beta Gamma Sigma membership after
graduation. To access more information about all the Beta Gamma Sigma
alumni chapters and what they have to offer, go to http://www.betagammasigma.org/alumnimap.htm.
