With more than 40 years of experience in the Media industry, both at a national and international level, Caño will contribute his expertise and knowledge in the Public Affairs and Institutional Relations arena to the firm’s clients.
Graduated in Journalism from Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Antonio Caño began his career as journalist in the international desk of the Spanish news agency Agencia Efe. Caño has spent most of his career at El País, the leading newspaper in Spain, where he held the position of Editor in Chief between 2014 and 2018.

Caño also launched the America editions of El País, including its own edition in Brazil.
With a long dedication to the international affairs, he has covered events that have marked history throughout his journalistic career, such as the wars in the Persian Gulf, the Falklands, Chad and El Salvador, the revolts against Augusto Pinochet in Chile, the fall of Sandinismo in Nicaragua, as well as four presidential elections in the United States, between many more relevant stories. He has interviewed numerous presidents, heads of state and personalities.
Antonio Caño, Partner of Estudio de Comunicación, said: “After working as a journalist for more than 40 years in various roles, I am thrilled at the challenge of observing communication and the relationship with institutions from another perspective. It is an honour to put the experience acquired during that time, including my years as Editor in Chief of El País, at the service of Estudio de Comunicación, one of the most reputable companies in its sector. I would like to thank its partners for the trust they have placed in me, and I am confident that I can live up to the expectations of its excellent staff as the firm expands and opens up to new fields of communication”.
