My Dear IBA Graduates and Fellow Alumni,
It has been a long journey yet you have finally made it! You have gone through some grueling challenges, some amazing accomplishments, and made friends along the way who you will hold dear for decades to come. I congratulate you and your loved ones for accomplishing a dream that millions of Pakistanis dream of, which is to graduate from IBA Karachi!

I would also like to welcome you to the 22,000+ strong alumni community that is eager to support you with open arms. As the IBA Alumni Representative on the Board of Governors, I look forward to your participation, your advice, and your wisdom to help IBA Karachi prosper and grow through your contributions.

I, along with the IBA Alumni Affairs Department, have worked tirelessly to create an ecosystem that will help you thrive. Be it through a strong network of 13 and growing chapters around the world, be it through vibrant industry and geographic specific WhatsApp communities, or through meaningful engagements and reunions hosted on campus and internationally.

But while we hope to serve you and hope you stay connected with your alma mater, I would like to leave a positive message for you. YOU ARE IBA. IBA Karachi is not known for its brick and mortar but for the quality and excellence of its students. You are our most credible ambassadors and hold the IBA badge when you take up new jobs, you begin your families, or you serve society in a public or private capacity.

So take pride in this accomplishment but also stay grounded and connected to help empower other alumni who will follow your footsteps.

I congratulate you, the graduating batch of 2025, and wish you the best of success in your life.

Stay connected with me and the IBA Alumni Affairs Department as we would love to follow your journey and support you every step of the way. You can contact the IBA Alumni Affairs Department at:
