Wharton is constantly changing, constantly adapting
to be state of the art.
The More Than Ever campaign has been
about generating opportunities to think big, create
bold solutions and transform the world of business.
It's been an honor to have joined Wharton
during the final year of the More Than Ever campaign.
By all measurements, the campaign has been a success
and has exceeded expectations in participation and fundraising.
For our world to thrive, business must excel at its job
and More Than Ever has been all about going forward,
strengthening and expanding Wharton's global presence
in all its areas of deep expertise,
leveraging assets of people, scale
purpose and analytical research to revolutionize
the future of business.
Wharton is a school that teaches you
how to think analytically, tackle big problems
and also be creative.
One of the key goals of Venture Lab
is to make a statement to the world about how
prominent entrepreneurship is in the Wharton curriculum
and in the Wharton co-curricular activities.
There's an understanding that we have as a school
and as a faculty, that if you're going to go out there and do
great things in the world, you're
not going to be doing them by yourself.
I firmly believe that what Wharton really teaches
students is not finance or management
or a specific discipline, but it teaches students how to think.
The overwhelming support from all our donors
is now turning vision into action for a better tomorrow.
It has been heartening to see the Wharton community
rise to the occasion.
I thank all of you, for supporting the
More Than Ever campaign.
