About The Alumni Society
At The Alumni Society, we talk a lot about the idea of “connection.” Meaningful, sustained connection with another person—that is the key building block for any truly valuable network. Strong networks don’t just open doors in the business world; they also build friendships, forge alliances, and create opportunities for leadership and influence.
The Alumni Society began because of just such a connection. Our cofounders, Pedro A. Guerrero and Ricardo Anzaldua, connected one evening in Chicago and began discussing the potential of a powerful community of achievers who drive positive impact within their industries and beyond.
Our members have earned their place at the table, excelling through hard work, merit, and academic achievement at the nation’s most rigorous institutions, including Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. Today, The Alumni Society is nearly 6,000 members strong, dedicated to cultivating connections—not only among members but also with our partner organizations—and in so doing, position them to lead.
If you are ready to join an inclusive group that will enrich your professional network and connect you with other successful individuals, fill out the application form on our website and be sure to explore our member benefits. If you are an organization that is interested in partnering with us to further Latino leadership in America, please contact us.
