Business university collaboration: government response to BIS select committee

Solutions

We don’t just generate ideas, but also solutions.

Our approach and strategic, cross-sector network linking universities, business and government is unlike any other. We bring our members together to leverage the skills and talent fostered by our universities and to strengthen further the UK’s world-class research and development.

This report sets out the Government’s response to the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS) Select Committee’s report on business-university collaboration in science and innovation. It lists the House of Commons BIS Select Committee’s conclusions and recommendations, describing the Government’s response to each one.

The body of evidence presented to this committee indicates that many of the Government’s initiatives are working well, while recognising that this is a highly competitive global environment where improvements and new ways of working must constantly be pursued.
