Who we are
CAMentrepreneurs is a University Alumni Group, formed to support business and social entrepreneurship among Cambridge University alumni, current students and others. Since its launch in 2016 more than 25 chapters have been founded. As of November 2025 we have held events in Athens, Beijing, Berne, Boston, Cambridge, Dubai, Edinburgh, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, London, Munich, New York, Oxford, Paris, San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, Sydney, Taipei, Texas, Warsaw and Zurich. We have more than five thousand members of our Linkedin group, a private social network, a mentoring platform and a newsletter. If you are interested in starting a new Chapter, start here.
Our first event was held in 2016 and we have steadily expanded as we have found local leaders who share our values and passion for supporting entrepreneurship.
βOur organisation exists to serve and help others by providing a structure that allows them to share their experiences, knowledge and networks.β
