About Us
Our History
Since its founding in July 2023 by two D'Amore-McKim School of Business students from Argentina, the Latin American Business Club (LBC) has become a cornerstone for Latin American students at Northeastern University, fostering a vibrant community centered on professional growth, cultural connection, and leadership.
With around 250 members, LBC provides opportunities to engage with high-profile speakers while also equipping students with career-building tools through workshops on resume building, LinkedIn optimization, and interview preparation.
Beyond professional development, LBC creates a 'family away from home,' ensuring that members feel supported as they navigate the challenges of studying and working in the U.S.
Looking ahead, the club aims to expand its professional network, establish exclusive co-op and mentorship opportunities, and strengthen its legacy as a bridge between students and the business landscape of Latin America.
