Celebrating Connection and Impact at the 2025 Alumni Achievement Awards

Congratulations to the recipients of the Ted Rogers School of Management’s 2025 Alumni Achievement Awards!

The Ted Rogers School community came together on October 15, 2025, to celebrate the outstanding accomplishments of this year’s Alumni Achievement Award recipients. Hosted by alumnus Ganesh Thava (Marketing Management ’17), the event captured the spirit of connection, mentorship, and lifelong engagement that defines graduates of the Ted Rogers School. Continuing a cherished tradition, last year’s recipients handed the torch to this year’s honorees, recognizing the lasting impact alumni have on students, faculty, and the broader community.
