This year, the PGN Delta Phi Chapter had the opportunity to visit New York City. The group stayed in downtown Manhattan and visited four companies spanning a wide range of industries. These included PwC and EY-Parthenon (consulting firms), Greenhill & Co. (investment bank), and Shade Inc. (technology startup). At each visit, members learned more about the companies, connected with PGN alumni working at these firms, and networked with additional associates. Many students also arranged coffee chats with alumni and firm representatives to build further connections.

The chapter also hosted an alumni event at the Bryant Park Winter Market, where more than 10 PGN Michigan alumni gathered to meet new members and brothers. Many of these alumni currently work in banking and technology. The event provided an excellent opportunity for networking, as numerous coffee chats and future meetings were arranged.

Overall, 36 members attended the trip, with 31 participating in the company visits. Afterward, many members shared how impactful the company visits were, how enjoyable the alumni event had been, and how memorable the trip was overall.
