What We Do
University innovation is a driving force in transforming lives and igniting the economy. We champion an ambitious vision for innovation that unlocks the full potential of the brilliant ideas emerging from universities. We achieve this through three key pillars.
-
Sector Engagement – we identify effective practices from across the university innovation sector, by convening founders, investors, industry, government and other key stakeholders.
-
Policy Development – we drive the conversation and build consensus, shaping policy to accelerate university innovation.
-
Training and Exchange – we build a culture of international collaboration to support the development and retention of talent across TTOs.
