A weekend of learning, laughter and lifelong connections - Festival of Minds 2025 brought our global alumni community back together like never before.
Reunion at Festival of Minds 2025 brought together over 1,500 alumni from across generations and geographies back to campus to celebrate shared memories and connections, rediscover the campus and take part in everything from career workshops and wellness sessions to hands-on creative activities and class gatherings across London. The weekend culminated in the ever-popular Sunday Garden Party, where families enjoyed sunshine, games and a BBQ on the front lawn.
The spirit of the weekend was one of reflection and renewal, of community bonds, personal growth and the School’s ongoing evolution. A rich programme of faculty sessions sparked lively discussions, with topics ranging from generative AI to leadership, strategy and the future of work.
Amid the celebrations, there was also a strong spirit of giving back. A phenomenal £4.5 million was raised.
“Reunion giving is one of the most meaningful times that an alum can support the School. It’s a moment when we can valorise the impact that being a student has had on one’s life,” says Emily A. Robin, Associate Dean of Advancement.
