SBSA is a Seattle-based consortium of alumni leaders from top business schools.
It exists to bring together the alumni of its member schools for education and networking. Member schools periodically sponsor events that are open to attendees outside the alumni of that specific school, and in those instances they invite the broader SBSA membership to attend. The SBSA itself also organizes and sponsors regular networking and educational events.
