Digital Literacy in the UK
Summary: Employer perspectives and the role of Higher Education
Our analysis of the current state of digital literacy across the UK highlights two things. Firstly, the importance placed on digital literacy by UK employers. Agnostic to sector, employers already recognise how vital digital literacy is to the productivity and progression of their organisations. Secondly, that there is a lot more in the UK that needs to be done. Universities must be at the centre of this national movement to create the next generation of highly skilled, adaptable, innovative, and digitally literate graduates entering the workforce.

University Industry Collaboration
Summary: The vital role of tech companies' support for Higher Education research
The crucial role that the world’s universities play in our economies and societies has never been so starkly illustrated as it has been by the covid-19 pandemic. Our institutions of higher learning and research produce the healthcare workers at the front-line in the fight against the virus; they provide the data, analysis and evidence-based expertise that is shaping effective public policy and driving the world’s response; and our great universities are developing the clinical interventions, tests and ultimately the vaccines that will secure our collective future.
