College of Europe Alumni gathering in Washington DC

On 28 October 2015, the European Union Ambassador to the United States, H.E. Mr David O'SULLIVAN, hosted a gathering of the alumni community of Washington DC in his residence. David O'SULLIVAN, who received the Alumnus of the Year award in 2013, took the lead of the EU delegation to the US in 2014, after an extensive career in the EU institutions in Brussels (Chief Operating Officer of the European External Action Service; Director General for Trade at the European Commission; Secretary General of the European Commission; Head of Cabinet of Romano PRODI, President of the European Commission...).

This social event gathered about 30 participants, some of whom had graduated decades ago, while others graduated last year only. The alumni group in DC gathers on a regular basis. Its last reunion had been hosted by the German Embassy to the US in May 2015. Its members work in organizations like the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, embassies, the EU delegation to the US, the European Parliament Liaison Office to the US Congress, universities or the private sector.
