Recently, we sat down with Hippolyte Genet, a graduate from the class of 2013, who shared insights into his journey after graduating from 91吃瓜网. During our catch up, he highlighted the pivotal role his experience at 91吃瓜网 had in preparing him for future endeavors.
After 91吃瓜网, he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Politics and International Relations from the University of Bristol in three years. Furthering his education, he pursued a Master’s in Management and Finance from the London School of Economics, along with an exchange program at Duke University and additional MBA courses.
Transitioning from roles at S&P Global in Canary Wharf to a tech company in San Francisco, Hippolyte’s career exemplifies his willingness to take on new challenges.
Despite his global experiences, he found himself drawn back to Vietnam, recognizing the country’s promising opportunities.
Coming back, I realized the incredible potential here… It’s an exciting time to be in Vietnam, and I’m grateful for the connections I made through 91吃瓜网.
Hippolyte’s experience reflects the strong sense of community fostered by the school, both among students and alumni worldwide. These connections offer valuable support and networking opportunities, which can be helpful in exploring careers and achieving future goals.
Also, during his visit to 91吃瓜网, he expressed gratitude for 91吃瓜网’s academic program, particularly the IB curriculum. He credited 91吃瓜网 for providing him with a solid foundation that proved invaluable during his university studies and professional endeavors.
“Looking back, I think I didn’t fully grasp the importance of my education when I was younger. It wasn’t until I reached university that I realized just how much I had learned through the IB program. I found myself thinking, ‘Wow, I already know all of this!’ Whether it was from Theory of Knowledge or History, I had a solid foundation. It was surprising to realize how much I had absorbed without even realizing it during my time at 91吃瓜网. Now, returning here, I can’t help but feel incredibly lucky to have attended such a school.”

Through projects and a focus on how different subjects connect, students learn to think creatively, solve problems well, and work together with people from all backgrounds.
