Harvard Club of Victoria Annual Dinner
The Council of the Harvard Club of Victoria is delighted to invite Harvard alumni and guests to the Club's Annual Dinner in support of our Non-Profit Fellowship on Thursday 13th November at Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club.
We have an exciting evening planned with special guest speaker Joe Aston, one of the country's most original observers of the worlds of business, finance and politics.
For over a decade, Joe reimagined journalism with insightful critiques in his Rear Window column in The Australian Financial Review. Last year, he published the best-selling The Chairman’s Lounge: The Inside Story of How Qantas Sold Us Out. And earlier this year, Joe launched the pioneering Rampart, a subscription news publication focused on business and finance.
This will be a unique opportunity to engage in a fascinating and spirited conversation with Joe, and to hear first-hand his incisive, fearless and no-holds-barred commentary on a wide range of important contemporary issues in Australian life.
We will also hear from one of our 2025 HCV Non-Profit Fellows, who will share experiences from Harvard Business School’s Strategic Perspectives in Non-Profit Management programme, and how your support continues to make a difference to the Victorian non-profit and community sector. Of course, this wonderful evening will also include a fabulous auction and raffle with priceless items in support of the Non-Profit Fellowship.
So catch up with old friends and meet new members of the Harvard community at the Club’s biggest event of the year. It is a warm and welcoming event, with alumni attending from the College and almost every Harvard graduate school. This year, the Club will once again be subsidising tickets for degree programme graduates from the Classes of 2025, 2024 and 2023 (i.e. excluding executive education programme alumni).
We hope to see you all there!
We will be holding a separate online Annual General Meeting this year on 19th November 2025. More information will be shared soon.
