Welcome to King's Business Club,

As the largest business and finance society in London, we aim to support all students in maximising their career potential. Following last year's rebranding initiative, that has transformed us from the King's College London Business Club (KCLBC) to simply King's Business Club (KBC), we are now better prepared than ever to support you during these uncertain times.

Despite this change, our core values continue to remain intact: to inspire, to educate, and to connect. In this spirit, my committee and I are constantly in the process of organising events. We recognise that such support is more important that ever, and we remain strongly committed.

As such, we have much planned for the Michaelmas term, and I welcome you to join us from the safety of your own home as we approach these challenges together. To join us as a member, simply register to our newsletter and follow us on our social media platforms. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions or concerns.

I wish you all the very best, and hope that the King's Business Club will remain a bastion of support in these times.

Paul Benter | 2019 President

Welcome to King's Business Club,

We are proud to announce that we have changed our name from the King's College London Business Club (KCLBC) to simply King's Business Club (KBC). Our society has undergone significant changes in the past year as we undertake the largest re-branding initiative in our history thus far.

We hope that this new face will help consolidate our image and reflect our maturity as London's largest business and finance society, while opening ourselves up to greater opportunities for all our members.

Despite such a significant change, our core values continue to remain unchanged since our foundation: to inform, to educate, and to connect. In this spirit, my committee and I are constantly in the process of organising events. To stay informed of all of our events, please do sign up to become a member!

I am looking forward to seeing all of you at our events.
