Alumni Author Talk—with Ralph H. Groce, III (CGS, Questrom, MET)

Boston University’s Metropolitan College invites you to join Dean Tanya Zlateva in welcoming entrepreneur, visionary thinker, advocate, alum, and MET Dean’s Advisory Board Chair Ralph H. Groce, III (CGS, Questrom, MET) for an evening discussing his new book, We Have Nothing to Lose: A Dark Optimist's Call to Action (Leaders Press, 2024). This event can be attended in person or virtually.

Mr. Groce currently serves as president and chief operating officer for Scroobious, a startup initiative focused on creating equitable access to investment capital, and prior to that, he served as chief information officer, global head of operations technology at Wells Fargo. Now, Mr. Groce has written a book that blends vision and values to craft a narrative that embodies his dream for a brighter future through commitment to leadership and positive change. The book follows the arc of Mr. Groce’s extraordinary life so far—his upbringing in Pittsburgh, the revelation of his college years at Boston University, his success as an entrepreneur, and, ultimately, his enduring dream of transforming the world.

The event will be held on the first floor of 808 Commonwealth Avenue in BU’s Groce Pépin Culinary Innovation Laboratory. Free to attend with registration, the event will be followed by a reception with light refreshments.
