Designing an Alumni Launch for Day One Success

Investec’s strategies for launching a successful alumni program, securing executive buy-in, and maximizing impact through effective planning.

Launching a corporate alumni program is an exciting opportunity - but true success can require meticulous planning, cross-functional alignment, and the right strategic priorities from day one. For those looking to build a program and activate their community, learning from those who’ve trodden that path is essential.

Join us for an exclusive conversation with Ciaran Whelan, formerly CEO of Investec Wealth & Investment (UK) and Managing Director of Investec plc, and the driving force behind their alumni program, to uncover how this initiative became a cornerstone of their 50th-anniversary celebrations.

In this event, we’ll dive into:

  • How a cultural milestone and a strategic vision aligned to make the timing right.
  • Lessons in securing internal buy-in and managing resources to get everyone on board.
  • A behind-the-scenes look at Investec’s coordinated internal and external launch strategies, from templates and channels to leadership activation.
  • Practical tips and best practices for anyone embarking on their own alumni launch, along with insights into what success looks like post-launch.
