About the Trojan CEO Network: USC alumni and students who are currently CEOs, Presidents, Founders, nonprofit Executive Directors, and Chairpersons are invited to join the Trojan CEO Network to share knowledge and participate in peer-learning. Events include:

- Monthly Forum Group meetings

Meet. Learn. Grow. Succeed.

Requirements: You must currently be running your own company (full-time or part-time) to join.

Annual Dues: We purposely have priced the TCN so dues are a fraction of other CEO clubs. By paying for an SC education, you're already part of the most expensive club in town. :)
Annual dues are on a tiered basis:

$175/yr for companies with annual revenues under $1 million or for nonprofit organizations
$250/yr for companies with annual revenues between $1 million and $5 million
$350/yr for companies with annual revenues over $5 million


Please note:The first three nonprofits to sign up each year will get their fees waived. The first three startups with less than $50K in revenue that sign up each year will also get their dues waived for the year.
