Details

There are long-standing ties between Austria and Spain, most importantly perhaps via the House of Hapsburg dating back to the 1500s, but also via the love of horsemanship. In fact, the ‘Spanish’ part of its name of the Spanish Riding School (Spanische Hofreitschule) is a reference to the horses which originated from the Iberian Peninsula during the 16th century, that were brought to Austria for breeding.  Join us on June 1st for a 2-part event that will include not only a tour of the historic Spanish Riding School in Vienna, but also a working dinner where alumni and candidates alike will benefit from a great meal and talk on how to build your personal brand, and communicate it effectively in the digital sphere.  The topic of personal branding is particularly relevant to career advancement, and we also wanted to provide a special-access experience for our guests, so if you are an IE alumni or a candidate that is in the admissions process, join us for this event that brings the old and the new together in one great event.
