Citi India Launches Alumni Network


Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Friday, February 03, 2012 -- (Business Wire India) -- Citi India today announced the launch of the Citi Alumni Network, a specially designed, global electronic platform for former Citi India employees to reconnect with Citi and with each other. The Citi India Alumni Network at www.citialumninetwork.com was launched by Victor Menezes, former Vice Chairman of Citigroup and the current Chairman of the Citi India Advisory Board at an exclusive evening held in Mumbai. The network will not only allow past colleagues to stay in touch with their contemporaries and with Citi, but will also allow them to share their experiences and memoirs on the network. Alumni will also be able to participate in some of the community programs organized by Citi India, like the annually held 'Global Community Day', enabling them to be a continued part of the Citi family.

Commenting on the launch, Pramit Jhaveri, CEO, Citi India said, "This is an extraordinary milestone for all of us, as our former colleagues come together to lend support to this new initiative. Citi has always been known for the quality of its talent and the Alumni Network will be a great opportunity for those who have left the organization, to reconnect both with former colleagues and with Citi. The idea is to celebrate and commemorate all those people who have helped make Citi the global financial institutional that it is and has been for two hundred years."

In addition to being a networking tool for former employees, the website will equip them for becoming Citi ambassadors by keeping them abreast of the latest happenings in the company. Previous Citi employees or retirees with more than 2 years of work experience at Citi and who meet the defined eligibility criteria can apply for membership to this Network. Globally, the Alumni Network is currently live in 98 countries and available in 12 languages.
