Mayor Discusses Future of Vilnius with BMI Alumni

Almost 30 BMI alumni met with the Mayor of Vilnius, Mr. Remigijus Šimašius, to exchange ideas about the further development of the capital city.

The meeting, held at the offices of the Vilnius City Municipality, involved lively discussion of issues such as public transportation, kindergartens and the corporate governance of state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Much in focus was the socially responsible nature of the BMI Alumni Association and the potential of its professional members to contribute to the city’s progress.

Mayor Šimašius encouraged BMI alumni to actively participate in elections to the boards of SOEs and to put forward ideas and initiatives. This was the mayor’s first meeting with BMI Alumni, initiating ties which will hopefully greatly benefit the city of Vilnius.
