98% of Fortune 500 companies have some form of an alumni program not for nothing. These alumni networks provide valuable resources for employees as well as employers. Entrepreneurs who went to schools with larger alumni networks are able to raise more capital than other entrepreneurs. Alumni as brand advocates are worth at least 5 times as much as the average customer and deliver a 10% increase in brand sentiment.
