The EMPA Forum was founded in the spring of 2003 by several alumni and then current students who wished to maintain contact with their classmates post-graduation, and to create an organization through which learning and the sharing of ideas could continue throughout their careers. The following spring the Forum held its first formal election and the Executive Committee and Board of Directors voted in the organization’s by-laws. Both the Picker Center for Executive Education and the Alumni Relations Office provided seed capital for initial events held by the fledgling organization and only a few years later the Forum hosts a robust program of events throughout the year.
