On the afternoon of January 9, the 2025 Annual Work Review Meeting of the Entrepreneurs Chapter of the SEM Alumni Association was successfully held in Conference Room 1205 of the School. The meeting focused on reviewing the work of the Entrepreneurs Chapter in 2025 and deliberating in depth on the work approach and key tasks for 2026. In attendance were Wu Sen, Secretary of the School Party Committee; Liu Yan, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Vice Dean; Yang Cheng, Vice President of the SEM Alumni Association; and Wang Xiaoyong, Liu Xingyu, Li Hong, Chen Zhe, and Chen Hui, Vice Presidents of the Entrepreneurs Chapter, together with Song Yiling, Assistant Secretary-General. Vice Presidents Hu Zijian (concurrently Secretary-General) and Li Mingzeng attended online. The meeting was chaired by Zhang Yalin, President of the Chapter.
Zhang Yalin expressed his heartfelt gratitude for the diligent efforts of all members of the Entrepreneurs Chapter and for the strong support of the School's leaders and faculty, the SEM Alumni Association, other alumni associations, and alumni at large. He stated that the Chapter would continue to strengthen connections with alumni and further expand its influence and capacity to serve.
Hu Zijian gave a systematic review of the Chapter's achievements in 2025 in areas such as organizing activities, alumni outreach, and resource integration. Over the past year, the Chapter successively organized a series of events, including the "Red Cruise Journey" for USTB alumni, study tours in Fangshan and Hainan, a Sichuan study tour combined with the Beike Western Entrepreneurs Salon, and a study tour in Shaoxing, fully demonstrating the organizational vitality of the Entrepreneurs Chapter and the sense of responsibility and commitment of SEM alumni.
Yang Cheng noted that, as an important platform for bringing SEM alumni together, the Entrepreneurs Chapter has played a positive role in promoting resource sharing and facilitating collaboration. He suggested that the Chapter should further innovate its forms of organization, broaden participation, attract more alumni to become deeply involved, and work together to promote alumni growth, support the expansion of enterprises, and contribute to the development of the alma mater.
Wu Sen fully affirmed the remarkable achievements the Entrepreneurs Chapter made in 2025 in organizing activities, uniting alumni, and building platforms, and spoke highly of and sincerely thanked all the alumni for their long-standing contributions to the development of the School. She expressed the hope that alumni would continue to play a bridging and connecting role, improve the quality and effectiveness of alumni affairs, and strive to build an alumni community that is warmer and more influential.
Looking ahead to 2026, participants engaged in in-depth discussion around the annual work plan, focusing on four core directions—strengthening organizational development, deepening alumni services, coordinating among alumni organizations, and integrating alumni resources—and put forward many practical and feasible proposals.
This meeting not only provided a systematic review of the work accomplished in 2025 but also set out the development path for 2026. In the future, the Entrepreneurs Chapter will continue to enrich the forms of its activities, broaden the dimensions of its services, and raise its organizational standards, so as to build an even broader platform for exchange and cooperation for alumni at large.
