Baron Piet Van Waeyenberge hosted a University of Illinois reception for Alumni and Friends of the University on Thursday, May 15 in Brussels.
The students joining alumni during the reception were participants in the International Business Immersion Program (IBIP), which is a course at the University of Illinois that combines a semester-long, on-campus class with a two-week study tour to Belgium, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, and Germany. During the immersion tour participants follow the entire food marketing channel, from field to fork, as they engage directly with European businesses and government and individual entities.
The event was a wonderful evening and had great fellowship.
