Alliances and collaborations
Strategic alliances. Together we are stronger.
With the aim of opening new professional horizons for students at the 42 campuses, complementary training programs have been launched in partnership with AWS, Google Cloud, IBM, and Salesforce. In addition, workshops and training sessions have been organized with institutions and companies such as BBVA Next and Splunk to foster synergies between these organizations and the campuses.
To promote female talent in STEM fields and combat gender stereotypes in technology professions, initiatives are being promoted with Women4Cyber Spain (W4C Spain), Womenalia, Steam Talent Girl and Code Women.
