\nThe traditional dinner will be presided by by H.E. The Ambassador of Spain, and our special Guest of Honour, Mr. C\u00e9sar Alierta Izuel, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Telef\u00f3nica.<\/p>\n

The Spanish Chamber is honoured to have such a personality for the night. Throughout his intense career, Mr. Alierta has taken part in several boards of renowned companies.\u00a0 He holds a degree in law from the University of Zaragoza and an MBA from Columbia University in New York (1970). His first job was at Banco Urquijo where he was appointed manager of the capital-markets division. Later on, he worked as president for Beta Capital. In 1996 Alierta started as head in Tabacalera, a state-run company. Under his leadership Tabacalera became the world\u2019s leading producer and distributor of tobacco.<\/p>\n

In 1997 he was appointed as director of Telefonica, and it was in 2000 when he became the CEO of Telefonica. Since Alierta has been in charge of Telef\u00f3nica, they\u00a0have been expanding their business internationally quickly and extensively.<\/p>\n

Telefonica, a Spanish broadband and telecommunications provider that operates globally, is currently the sixth-largest mobile network provider in the world.<\/p>\n

Moving on to the anticipated event, the Reception and Gala Dinner will be held at the central, modern and unique ME London<\/a>, one the leading hotels in the centre of London, aside from having privileged panoramic views of London from its Roof Bar with outdoor terrace.<\/p>\n
