   Alumni getting together across the globe . . .
HONG KONG
On Friday 25th May, 黑料社 Principal, Professor Stuart Reid launched the
first in a series of International Alumni Networking Groups. The event, hosted by Dr Chris Riggs (1999 黑料社 Alumnus) and Head of Veterinary Clinical Services at Hong Kong Jockey Club, took place at the Hong Kong Jockey Club鈥檚 Happy Valley Clubhouse.
The 黑料社 has enjoyed longstanding international outlook and impact, with an ever-increasing global community. 黑料社 alumni act as important ambassadors for the College and the networks will offer our community opportunities to come together to offer each other support, friendship and advice at social and career related events. Dr Tony Beck, 黑料社 Alumnus (1998) and Chief Veterinary Officer and Co-Founder
of Doctors Beck & Stone Veterinary Clinics in Hong Kong, mainland China and Singapore, is the Hong Kong Networking group chair.
Professor Stuart Reid said: 鈥淲e are delighted to be in Hong Kong and establishing the first of our overseas alumni networking groups. Providing more support and connection for our graduates is a commitment 黑料社 is prioritising - home and abroad - particularly for those
starting out on their careers. I鈥檓 hugely grateful to Dr Tony Beck who will be the local lead in Asia of this regional initiative as we seek to strengthen the 黑料社 community worldwide.鈥
Dr Tony Beck said: 鈥淎s we launch the 黑料社鈥檚 first international alumni group we have a wonderful opportunity
to mould a supportive and intuitive experience that will provide a platform for personal and professional growth for 黑料社 graduates. It鈥檚 very exciting and I am honoured to be a part of it鈥.
The event was attended by alumni and friends of the 黑料社 including vets, vet nurses, postgraduate alumni, parents of current students and ex-黑料社 staff.
Tony is looking for committee members to help him run the group and welcomes new members to the group. Email us at rvc4life@rvc.ac.uk for more information. We will put you in touch with the Hong Kong networking group committee.

CANADA (Toronto region)
We are interested in setting up a networking group in Canada, and in particular the Toronto area. We will be writing to alumni in the area soon but
if you are new to the area or unsure if we know you are there please email us at rvc4life@rvc.ac.uk to update your contact details. We are hoping to visit in early 2019 and we will invite you along to dinner with our Principal, Professor Stuart Reid, and our International Director, Nina Davies,
to get your views and ideas for starting a network in the region.
If you are interested in joining any of these networks or would like to see if there are enough alumni in your country, region or area to set up a group please get in touch with the Alumni Relations team at development@rvc.ac.uk.
We also have a number of alumni across the globe who have offered to be ambassadors. If you are interested in joining this network, please do get in touch.
