Welcome

From March 21 - 29, 16 joint degree students at the Harvard Business School and Harvard Kennedy School will be experiencing The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The organizers, Esther Hsu and Katie Laidlaw, have worked incredibly hard to make this all come together. For that, the remaining 14 couldn't be more grateful. The trip is being sponsored by the Kingdom, and the itinerary is packed with visits to Universities, businesses, and government offices.

We created this blog to keep family and friends up to date on what we are doing while there. We fly out on Saturday morning from Boston to New York. In the afternoon, we board a flight from New York to Riyadh.

Check back on Saturday for some updates. Check back at after that for even more updates.
