The National Centre for Universities and Business (NCUB) has submitted its response to the Government’s consultation on its new industrial strategy green paper.
We warmly welcome a return to strategic industrial policy as a way of coordinating, aligning and stimulating targeted activity among stakeholders, and the Invest 2035 green paper is a good starting point for the Government. Our response highlights the importance of universities to supporting economic growth, and underlines the role of government in incentivising private sector R&D investment.
We look forward to working with the Government on the next steps of the industrial strategy design process in the coming months.
