Graduation ceremony

Dean's welcome

Imperial College Business School

First of all: congratulations! What a wonderful day and what a wonderful achievement. It is no small thing to graduate from Imperial College London; it is an institution respected and recognised throughout the world, and that is down to the work, knowledge and impact of our graduates – of you.


But success is never achieved alone. We all rely on the support, indulgence and love of those closest to us. And so, in this important moment, on behalf of our school, I would like to thank all of those who were part of the journey: thank you.

Ours is an honoured and worthy community of graduates. Students who have passed through the same doors as you have gone on to heal the sick across the globe, to make discoveries that have changed science and society, and to play lead guitar in Queen.

Alumni from the Business School sit at some of the most important decision-making tables in the world, from America to Australia, in central banks, international agencies, at the helm of great companies, creating startups that will change the world, and driving non-profits that make a difference for the disenfranchised.

And so, as I bid you a farewell from the school and the university, I welcome you to our global community of alumni. I am fully confident that you will go on to do incredible things, to improve business and better society in ways I cannot imagine now, and as you do, remember us. We want to know of your successes, of your achievements, as we will remain here, ready to support, ready to advise, and most of all to applaud.

Once again, congratulations – and welcome.
