For more than 30 years AIESEC interns and alumni have
filled various roles in PricewaterhouseCoopers offices around the world. PwC supports over 55
AIESEC offices worldwide on various areas such as alumni initiatives, advisory, conferences, campus
recruitments, trainings and financial audits. Like AIESEC, at PwC we respect the need for cultural
diversity, teamwork and the sharing of knowledge for solving existing problems, to bring about that
positive change for our clients, our people and our world.
PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) was created by the merger
of two firms - Price Waterhouse & Coopers and Lybrand - each with historical roots going back
to some 150 years ago. Our cooperation with AIESEC dates back to 1974. We are proud to be the
second oldest global partner of AIESEC.
