An institutional agreement between the University of Navarra and Zurich Seguros makes the latter a Founding Partner of Museo Universidad de Navarra. The agreement was signed on Monday, April 30, by the rector of the University of Navarra, Ángel J. Gómez-Montoro, and the general manager of Zurich Empresas in Spain, Vicente Cancio, and will be automatically renewed annually for the next ten years. 

This support to the contemporary art museum of the university center is part of the corporate social responsibility policy of Zurich Seguros, which includes among its objectives the development of projects that meet social needs.

For its part, the Museo Universidad de Navarra grants it the category of 'Founding Partner' and undertakes to publicize this support in the presentations of the project, in its information materials (catalog, corporate video, memory, web). In addition, Zurich will sponsor an activity of the Museum before its inauguration.

Once the Museum is inaugurated, new advantages will be added such as: one free ticket per year for each Zurich Seguros employee, the possibility of holding one meeting per year in the Museum's premises or its participation in the annual gala, among other benefits.

Zurich Seguros thus becomes one of the founding partners and thanks to its economic collaboration will contribute to the creation of the art center on the campus. The Museo Universidad de Navarra aims to bring together other founding partners, individuals or corporations from around the world.

By the same agreement, Zurich Spain also supports the research project "Emotional Culture and Identity" of the Institute of Culture and Society (ICS) of the University of Navarra and is called "Preferred Supplier", so that its offer will be valued as a priority when the center requires products or services offered by the entity.
