Most alumni engagement platforms focus on newsletters, directories, and occasional events.
StayingBee takes a different approach.
We help alumni connect in real life — by enabling members to host, stay, meet, discover, and support each other through travel and shared experiences.
The result? Stronger relationships, higher engagement, and a more connected alumni community.
Why Traditional Alumni Engagement Falls Short
Most alumni engagement strategies are built around the same handful of tactics. But engagement today requires more than communication — it requires connection.
The Reality
- Most alumni platforms create passive audiences instead of active communities.
- Engagement depends heavily on administrators instead of members themselves.
- Alumni interactions happen occasionally instead of continuously.
- Many alumni feel disconnected after graduation despite being part of a global network.
A New Approach to Alumni Engagement
Real engagement happens between people — not platforms. StayingBee enables alumni engagement through real-world interaction, empowering alumni to connect directly with each other.
Accommodation Sharing
Alumni stay with alumni when traveling — affordable, safe, and meaningful.
Local Hosting
Members open their cities and homes to fellow alumni passing through.
Shared Experiences
Coffees, dinners, hikes, city tours — small moments that build real bonds.
Alumni Discovery
Find alumni nearby or around the world based on shared affiliation and interests.
Community Feed
A living space for stories, asks, and updates from your global alumni community.
Member Networking
Peer-to-peer introductions across cities, careers, and continents.
Travel Connections
