Dr. Günter Burghardt, Senior Counsel in the Brussels office of Mayer, Brown, Rowe & Maw and Visiting Professor at the College of Europe, commented: "By setting up a law prize which incorporates an internship we hope to foster greater understanding between ourselves and students looking to make their career in the law. We are proud to join those from the private sector who support the College of Europe, the oldest post graduate institution having educated generations of international scholars in European integration matters over more than 50 years."
Kiran Desai, partner in the Brussels office of Mayer, Brown, Rowe & Maw, added: "This prize seeks to encourage study of EU law and in particular its importance to and impact on the business community. The EU itself has recognised the necessity of impact assessments by making them mandatory for all proposed EU legislation identified in the European Commission's Work Programme."
