Tecnunthe School of Engineering of the University of Navarra, and Fom Talent, the training division of FOM, have signed a collaboration agreement to develop joint training activities in the field of emerging technologies, product design and new business models.

A training plan that also stresses the need to develop the Personal Brand as the foundation of leadership in the new digital society.

The presentation of this first Executive Programme in Connected Industry will take place on Tuesday 17 December, at the facilities of the Madrid Campus of the University of Navarra. It will consist of a working breakfast, with a very attractive programme with the participation of leading professionals from the industrial and academic fields. Mr. Ángel J. Gómez Montoro, Director of the Madrid Campus of the University of Navarra, will be in charge of welcoming the participants.
