Corporate Social Responsibility at Grupo Santander

Abstract

Jaume Pages, deputy director of Universia, writes this in the introduction to its Annual Report for 2004:

Universia has received more than 68 million visits to its webpage every month, and has 3.5 million registered users. These figures mean that we are the biggest channel of information for university students in Spanish and Portuguese, in addition to being the best way for our university students to answer their questions about training portals, grants, getting their first job, studying in other countries and so on. We are very pleased with the results for 2004 as they show the important role of collaboration with universities and the support of the Grupo Santander in the project. It is important to highlight the addition of another country to our network; the universities of Uruguay have now joined the significantly increased number of partner universities in the other ten countries.¹
