With an official cooperation agreement, the FOM University of Applied Sciences in Nuremberg is consolidating its successful partnership with the THORWART law firm and the THORWART-JESKA FOUNDATION. 

What is new is that in the future foundation scholarships will also be awarded to FOM students.

The law firm THORWART with currently about 75 employees at eight locations looks back on a tradition of more than 100 years in Nuremberg. Its expertise in the fields of labor and corporate law is of particular interest to the FOM University: Together, the two partners organize the event series " Medium-Sized Business Forum Corporate Law" and "Labor Law Breakfast". The joint awarding of the academic prize for corporate law and the commitment on the part of Prof. Dr. Rolf Otto Seeling from the THORWART law firm on the board of trustees of FOM in Nuremberg also show that the partnership works. "Both sides value the profitable exchange very much," says Denis Sandra Bast, Managing Director of FOM in Nuremberg. "The THORWART law firm has already been named Law Firm of the Year by JUVE-Verlag, which confirms the high quality of its work. Our students also benefit from this know-how."

In addition to Professor Seeling, attorney Prof. Dr. Hans Peter Braune also teaches full-time at the FOM in Nuremberg. In addition, attorneys Alexander Frey, Daniela Gunreben, Danny Hinkelthein and Christiane Eifler are involved in teaching or events at FOM. Denis Sandra Bast: "We are very pleased to make our partnership official with a cooperation agreement and to intensify it through new projects." In addition to the existing activities, the agreement also provides for scholarships for FOM students by the THORWART-JESKA-STIFTUNG in the future. "With the award of the Science Prize for Corporate Law, the foundation already recognizes outstanding achievements in the context of a final thesis," Bast said. "In the next step, we will work with the foundation to determine the design and awarding of scholarships for FOM students."
