In addition, Mr Lorenzo lectured, that same week, the students of the International MBA of Deusto University.

The University of Deusto puts an emphasis on a practical approach of teaching and succeeds in sending out young professionals to lead businesses on an international level.

“The two invitations show on the one hand our level of transparency, our NGO is happy to share its experience with others. Thus, they also imply that EuFoA must have reached some level of expertise in this field”, EuFoA Director declared.
