To begin with, Alice Guilhon opened with an introductory speech in Portuguese in which she congratulated the students. Following her, Karen Haas Dornas, associate director of the Global BBA, highlighted the work of the newly graduated class, emphasising the achievements made over the year. The ceremony was marked by the presence of economist and professor Mario Marques, whom the students chose as the patron of their class.
