Marshall Memorial Fellowship Salon

Many joined the World Affairs Council to welcome the Marshall Memorial Fellows to San Antonio! It was an intimate event, held at a private residence, and provided an opportunity for members of the community to get to know six visitors from Europe and hear about the impressive things that they do in their home countries.

The Marshall Memorial Fellowship (MMF) is GMF’s flagship leadership development program. Created in 1982 to introduce a new generation of European leaders to the United States, it now prepares leaders from both sides of the Atlantic for transatlantic relations. The program relies on 6 months of distance learning and 24 days of first-hand experience to facilitate knowledge and network development for effective transatlantic engagement. GMF awards 75 Marshall Memorial Fellowships each year to candidates from all sectors, including business, government and civil society. The MMF alumni network numbers more than 2,500 leaders. Their transatlantic engagement continues throughout their careers with GMF alumni projects, seminars, and major events.
