UCONN ALUMNI-OWNED BUSINESS NETWORK FAQ

Who is included in the Alumni-owned Business Network Directory?

All types of businesses are welcome, including independent consultants. For purposes of this Network Directory, an alumnus is defined as:

What if a UConn alum has another position in a small business but does not own it? Can the business still be included in the directory?

No. At this time, directory listings only include alumni-owned businesses.

If a business is not approved will they be contacted?

How frequently is the Network updated?

We strive to review and approve as quickly as possible. Depending on the volume of submissions, we may experience delays from time to time. Please allow up to 10 business days for your listing to appear.
