Comillas Mentoring Network is a highly valuable instrument for promoting entrepreneurship in our University. The network is a meeting place for our current students who are eager to launch business ventures and for former students, with experience in this field, who wish to support them during the process.
In this sense, the network is yet another indication of the huge pool of assets the University has in terms of former students and reflects both the professional success of many of them as well as their level of commitment and involvement in Comillas' initiatives. Very few universities can say they have a network of mentors of such a scale and prestige.
I would like to thank all members of the network for their availability and initiative and for encouraging our current students to use and showcase it.
