Commissioners and staff at the US UK Fulbright Commission congratulate Rishi Sunak on his appointment as Prime Minister, the first Fulbright Alumnus to occupy the highest seat of UK government. A 2006 MBA graduate of Stanford University, California, he has been a supporter of the Commission and its programme of transatlantic academic exchange as a conduit for meaningful collaboration across the business, technological, scientific and cultural sectors. He has reflected that his experience at Stanford “changed his life”, teaching him “to think bigger”.
