LA VC Happy Hour with Emerging LA x Wharton x Harvard

On Friday, February 9th, our Emerging LA Wharton & Harvard Happy Hour event brought together 144 guests.

We celebrated the Wharton MBA students who traveled from Philadelphia to meet with alumni and friends of the LA tech and venture community.

The event kicked off at 5:00 PM with a lively networking session and spilled over for an hour and a half!

As an alum who is from & based in SoCal, it was great to bring together Wharton and Harvard local alumni to exchange stories and forge new relationships.

We took over the whole space at The Tiato Kitchen and Garden, which was the perfect place for us to mingle.

Not only do the Tiato owners have ties to Wharton, but, as you can see, they put up an amazing display in honor of the Lunar New Year!

With the festive atmosphere, it felt like a perfect night to celebrate new beginnings and new connections.

By the end of the night, we had filled up on good conversation and good energy in the spirit of collaboration and innovation that define both the Wharton and Harvard communities.
