The University and the international law firm Squire Patton Boggs have signed a strategic agreement for the training of students at the School of Law. As part of this partnership, the Aula CEU-Squire Patton Boggs has been inaugurated and a first session held where students have been able to experience first-hand the management and organisation of a law firm of these characteristics.

On behalf of Squire Patton Boggs, the meeting was attended by Javier Izquierdo, Partner Responsible for Litigation and Arbitration, Marta Robles, Senior Associate of the Litigation  and Arbitration Department, Mayte Requejo of Counsel for Criminal Law, Juan Fernández-Castaño, Business Development and Marketing Manager, and Sonia de Zunzunegui, Managing Director. Also attending, from the University were the Rector, Rosa Visiedo; the Manager, Carmen García de Elías; the Dean of the Faculty, Alfonso Martínez-Echevarría; and the Coordinator of the Aula, Pedro Sánchez Rivera.

Rosa Visiedo emphasised the importance of the inauguration of the Aula CEU-Squire Patton Boggs, which contributes to generating a Business-University ecosystem, of which the Classroom strategy forms a part, and stressed that "with these initiatives, we provide a deeper knowledge of the sector, bringing students closer to the professional world where the university acts as an enabler, connecting students and companies so they can get to know each other." She also encouraged students to take advantage of and participate in this series of opportunities, such as the Aulas CEU-Business, to improve their employability.
