On January 26, IPADE hosted its annual Family Day event, welcoming the families of its Full-time MBA participants to the IPADE campus in Mexico City. Family Day allows Full-time MBA participants to share with their loved ones the campus where they spend so much time and for their families to learn more about the Full-time MBA program.
After a full tour of the Mexico City campus, Dean Rafael Gómez Nava welcomed each participant and their families, sharing with them the founding principles of IPADE, the meaning of the IPADE crest, and the mission, vision, and history of the institution.
“We’re quite sure that each of our participants has dedicated themselves to their personal, professional, and intellectual development and is increasingly committed to an ever more global vision of doing business,” said Dean Gómez Nava. “Since its founding, IPADE has been dedicated to generating dialogue, encouraging dreams, focusing on values, nurturing virtue, proposing ideas, accelerating action, facilitating meetings, and creating community, always with a focus on the individual. We are very proud that your children are a part of this great experience.”
Family members in attendance were then invited to participate in afternoon sessions with their children. The event concluded with a networking cocktail, where participants and their families were able to mingle and share their IPADE experiences.
For IPADE, the family is the most important organization in people’s lives, and events such as Family Day help strengthen the personal development of each participant.
