International Students

The Africa Business Club’s mission is to spur conversations at Stanford about doing business in Africa and to connect the Stanford community with other parties interested in business in Africa by: creating a platform that actively engages with and serves the student community; facilitating conversations to create awareness and give students as much context and opportunity for engagement as possible; and developing an outward-looking perspective that goes beyond the GSB and seeks to participate in developing innovative solutions to solve complex problems in Africa.

The Asian Business Student Association aims to unite and strengthen bonds among Stanford GSB students who are from Asia, of Asian descent, and/or interested in Asia from a cultural or business perspective under a common organization.

The India Club aims to build and strengthen ties with the Indian business and investor community, thereby increasing awareness about opportunities for information exchange and employment for Stanford GSB graduates in India. This is achieved through a speaker series, small group dinners, and interactions with Indian companies and investors.

The Europe Club is a community gathering all students sharing an interest in European culture and business. Our goal is to provide a space for European students to share their culture and non-European students to discover it through the organization of social and cultural events (e.g., European movie nights, small group dinners, wine and cheese nights, parties). We also want to help GSB students explore European career opportunities.

Greater China Business Club is a platform, interface, and exchange for Stanford GSB and non-Stanford GSB students who are interested in business in the Greater China region: mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. The club provides opportunities to connect with each other, share knowledge, learn, discover, and create opportunities.

The Latin American Student Association aims to strengthen bonds among the Latin community at Stanford GSB and all those interested in it, while increasing awareness of Latin issues. LASA organizes social gatherings, speaker series, and career development activities that are open to all.

The Middle East and North Africa Club promotes business and cultural aspects of the Middle East and North Africa region through events, guest speakers, and social activities.

The South Asian Business Students Association creates social community and affinity networks through shared experiences and activities for South Asian students and those interested in South Asian culture at GSB. The organization marks big cultural celebrations of South Asia with social and cultural events open to all.

The Student Association International Committee is an elected group of MBA students with a mandate to support international students and to voice the global perspective throughout all aspects of the Stanford MBA experience. The committee looks to be an infrastructure of support for students moving to the Stanford community from all parts of the world, and to provide opportunities for students to learn about one another’s experiences. The committee also has the goal of helping domestic students learn more about the international community and be aware of current international developments/issues.
