McCann FitzGerald sponsors students to attend International Negotiation Competition in Norway
McCann FitzGerald is to sponsor two UCD students as they compete in the prestigious International Negotiation Competition which takes place in Oslo this June.
The two outstanding students are Matthew Hanrahan (4 BCL Law with History) and team-mate, Conor Rock (3 BA History and Politics) from the UC Sutherland School of Law. They earned their place in the world competition by defeating law schools from around the country at the recent National Negotiation Competition in the Law Society of Ireland.
Matthew and Conor will represent Ireland in the world competition which takes place from June 27 to July 1. The INC is the oldest and most renowned competition in international legal negotiation with up to 30 teams from around the world participating.
The judging panel consists of legal and business professionals, practicing lawyers, and academic professors in the field of negotiation. Teams take part in an intensive programme which includes a Master class in negotiation plus up to 4 rounds of competition, offering them a unique educational program for international legal practice.
“We are very pleased to continue to support UCD and their students and we wish Matthew and Conor every success in the competition,” said Barry Devereux, Managing Partner, McCann FitzGerald.
