The New Enlightenment? The Future of the University in the Knowledge Economy
Tuesday 11 November 2008, Central London
Is a University a community of scholars, devoted to research and teaching? Or a commercially focussed sector of the modern knowledge economy, which celebrates enterprise and innovation? Or both?
The Work Foundation’s HE Forum is designed to help university leaders find their own response to the tension, and to define their own strategic position in relation to it.
Come and hear insights and provocations from leading ‘voices’ within the sector who are dealing in their own way with the Enlightenment-commercialisation dilemma. And discover practical ways of navigating it.
Why attend:
- To reflect upon, clarify and validate a University’s strategic direction
- To develop a sustainable ‘alignment and engagement’ strategy
- To develop effective community engagement strategies
- To enable a leading role in Local Strategic Partnerships
- To learn how to improve knowledge transfer
The 2008 HE Forum is aimed at:
- Vice-Chancellors
- Deputy Vice-Chancellors and Registrars
- Pro Vice-Chancellors
- Heads of Human Resources and Knowledge Transfer
- Senior Leaders from HE stakeholder organisations
