End of Year Event! The HBS Club is honored to host four US ambassadors to Southeast Asia

It’s time for a special event to close the 2007-08 year of the HBS Club.  We are privileged to host four US Ambassadors on their 14th Annual US Ambassadors’ Tour.  Throughout the years, this tour has touched 30 cities, giving the ambassadors an opportunity to meet with business, political, and academic leaders.  The HBS Club of Houston has been selected as the group of business leaders to host their time in Houston.  They will provide insights into the business opportunities and climate in Southeast Asia and look to us to educate them on the issues business leaders consider in regards to doing business in the region.
