The Hinrich Foundation supports continuing education and career success for our alumni and scholars through professional development talks, industry roundtables and trade briefings which provide opportunities to interact with senior trade business leaders and policy makers.
Through scholarships in a variety of disciplines, the Hinrich Foundation helps to enable our Global Trade Leaders to contribute to trade across global value chains. Our alumni are leveraging their education to advance their careers, and create meaningful change within their companies, communities and countries.
