IBA Alumni

Alumni Chapters - UAE Alumni Chapter

April 3, 2023: We would like to introduce you to the office bearers of the new tenure of the IBA Alumni Chapter, UAE. This panel has been carefully curated to ensure representation of different sectors bringing in Banking and Finance, FMCG, Pharma and Healthcare, Digital Creative Economy and Entrepreneurship in the fold. Another key factor is the wide experience of presence in the UAE market and affiliation with the Pakistan Association Dubai(PAD) which will help alumni in ensuring that it continues to run this as a CDA Registered Alumni Body under PAD.

This panel has big plans and will need your support. The office bearers intend to start this journey with new energy and have a lot to achieve, starting off with bringing the current alumni together in a more meaningful manner and to provide support to other IBA graduates flying to the UAE for better careers.
