The Association of Hispanic and Black Business Students (AHBBS) invites you to the

25th Annual AHBBS Conference

"Moving Forward: Building Momentum for the Milestones Ahead".

 

The Annual AHBBS Conference and Career Fair is typically first, and consistently one of the largest, at NYU Stern and succeeds in attracting students each year from other MBA programs. This year’s Annual Conference represents a unique opportunity for a diverse group of leading companies to engage an audience of 300 current AHBBS members, top minority prospective students, AHBBS alumni and guests. The current AHBBS membership includes roughly 100 highly qualified African-American and Latino students from a variety of professional interests including banking, consulting, finance, marketing, media and entertainment and more. Sponsors will make a powerful impression on talented minority candidates. 

This year’s conference is taking a new format, in which a variety of speakers will share their insights and experiences in a succession of 20-30 minute rapid fire, thought-provoking intervals. None other than Dean Peter Henry will be welcoming our current students, alumni, prospective students and guests and introducing our distinguished speakers. Our conference will also feature a sit-down lunch and closing networking reception with representatives from our corporate sponsors, including JPMorgan, Bank of New York, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Johnson & Johnson, Colgate-Palmolive, American Express, Unilever, Barclays Capital, Deloitte, Citi, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
