Executive roundtable

The National Centre for Universities and Business (NCUB) produces the Collaboration Progress Monitor (CPM) to provide detailed insights into the state of university-business collaboration in the UK. Drawing on comprehensive data from NCUB members, the CPM highlights trends and challenges that shape collaboration across sectors and regions.

This roundtable offered the first opportunity to review and discuss findings from last year’s CPM, which reflected responses from 30 member organisations. The session aimed to interpret these results and explore how they can inform this year’s State of the Relationship (SoR) report and future collaborative initiatives.

This session:

  • Presented the latest CPM data and key findings from the previous year
  • Enabled participants to feed into data insights shaping the current SoR report
  • Shaped the discussion questions to be raised during the ongoing member engagement process

This was a valuable chance for senior leaders to contribute to NCUB’s flagship research and help influence the development of government and sector programmes that support effective university-business partnerships.
