  • What is TABA?
  • What is TABA?
    The Tulane Association of Business Alumni (TABA) represents the 15,000+ alumni of the A. B. Freeman School of Business. Founded in 1979 and sponsored by TABA, the Tulane Business Forum provides the New Orleans and regional business communities an opportunity to hear speakers of national acclaim address important business topics.

    In addition, TABA provides support to the school, its students and alumni through a variety of activities. TABA supports student placement by sponsoring network receptions around the country, most notably Freeman Days in New York, Houston and New Orleans. TABA also sponsors the TABA Community Service Program in partnership with the Levy-Rosenblum Institute for Entrepreneurship. This program affords students opportunities for experiential learning in their fields of study as business consultants to local organizations. TABA also provides social opportunities for both students and alumni to come together through its sponsorship of activities including Rock 'n' Bowl outings and the annual Jazz Fest party.
