The 2017 Discover event was hosted by Universidad de Navarra, Spain on Wednesday 29th March.

Discover the World 100 aims to explore issues of reputation from a country-specific perspective and engage new members. Our Discover events are for small groups of around 25-30 senior delegates and aim to bring existing members together with potential new members so that new members can find out what we do, and existing members can learn more about the best universities in a particular area.

The current challenges facing world-class Spanish universities were explored from a reputational and brand-building perspective. To make the most of travel and networking, the event also preceded the significant reputation conference for higher education, the BUR conference at the Universidad de Navarra 30 & 31 March 2017.
