Supporting collaboration & innovation in higher education

The UK higher education sector has long been known for its excellence, attracting students from all over the world to study at our prestigious institutions. Recently, the cost-of-living crisis, rising tuition fees, increased competition for international students, and a changing regulatory framework have all made the environment more challenging.

 

However, there are few areas of the UK economy with the capacity to grow and generate export earnings as impressive as the higher education sector.

We start from a position of tremendous strength and need to make the most of British ingenuity and innovation to develop new and affordable models to deliver the best outcomes for students and staff alike. To do this we need to be at the forefront of the digital revolution.


Education is changing fast, and we must be agile in our response. HEPN exists to support and define strategies, setting out plans to harness them.

The event will explore the key challenges facing the UK higher education sector and discuss possible solutions to ensure its continued success. This year we have a particular focus on internationalisation, setting the foundations for success, as well as new approaches to improving the student experience.


This event is free to attend for all C-Suite higher education budget holders. All accommodation and refreshments are included with your registration.
