Alumni Lecture: Michael Bolingbroke

In conversation with Michael Bolingbroke (BA Economics 1987)

We were delighted to welcome alumnus Michael Bolingbroke back to campus as a part of our Alumni Lecture Series with Vice-Chancellor, Sir David Bell KCB. Michael discussed his impressive and varied career, which has included many senior roles, such as Senior Vice President of Shows at Cirque du Soleil, CEO of F.C. Internazionale and COO at Manchester United, which meant working alongside Alex Ferguson. He shared his opinion on topical issues such as whether football fans should be considered as customers of football clubs, the governance of sport, social media and leisure and the need for younger people to be more influential in business.
