The University of Western Australia Business School and international law firm Allens have announced a renewed three-year partnership agreement.

Under the new agreement, Allens will continue to be recognised as a Supporting Corporate Partner of the UWA Business School .

Among the partnership outcomes will be various thought leadership events, including a series of Breakfast by the Bay events open to the public and exclusive Leaders' Luncheons for the business community.

Dean of the UWA Business School, Winthrop Professor Phil Dolan, said the renewed partnership would encourage discussion around important business topics.

"Events that draw in the wider business community, such as these events sponsored by Allens, are vital in generating the debate and discussion needed to create innovative solutions to modern business challenges," he said.

Allens' Perth Practice Director Andrew Pascoe said the firm was pleased to renew its partnership agreement with the UWA Business School and looked forward to deepening its involvement in the School's events and programs.

"We understand the importance of teaching future business leaders of WA the right skills to succeed on not only the local stage, but the world stage," Mr Pascoe said.

Allens will also increase its participation in programs delivered by AIM WA•UWA Business School Executive Education, involvement in the UWA Business School's Ambassadorial Council, and participation in the 2014 Indigenous Business, Enterprise and Corporations Conference.
