The UAL China (East) Alumni Association was formed out of a merger between alumni groups in Shanghai (est. 2012) and Hangzhou (est. 2017) and boasts more than 700 members. The new group aims to better represent alumni across East China, one of China's most important economic and cultural regions, and to provide a platform for the many alumni who are not covered by an existing alumni group. A new local chapter in Suzhou will open in early 2018.
This group, consisting of alumni who originate from across the globe, aims to promote cross-cultural dialogue and communication to establish a platform to share ideas, job opportunities, and to inspire and nurture. East China is a thriving international hub that attracts people and ideas from across the globe. The group counts the British Consul General in Shanghai, British Council and British Chamber of Commerce Shanghai as key supporters and organizes regular social, professional and cultural events to serve our thriving alumni community and UAL family.
