ALUMNI STORY
Trader turned serial entrepreneur Colin’s latest venture is ethical, organic
coffee company CRU Kafe. Distributed to over 20 countries worldwide, CRU
has just become the coffee on board all short-haul British Airways flights.
Why an MBA?
I wanted to take myself out of the professional world for a year to figure
out what I wanted to do for my next adventure. Hult’s global network really
appealed to me. At Hult, you’re not a number but an individual with your
own personal story and journey. You’ll build valuable relationships and skills
for today’s global world.

What skills from Hult are you still using today?
Definitely the social skills needed to work within a multicultural world.
I manage people from many different backgrounds and Hult really helped
me understand how to not only make a very diversified team work but to
truly excel. And the network is still amazing, even all these years later.

London and found her dream job managing startup investment at Sky.
