Be part of the UIIN accelerator program and enhance your partnership approach!
Developing enduring strategic partnerships with industry provides far greater and more sustainable value to universities than taking a more transactional approach that leads to one-off research projects or licensing arrangements. But so often, universities are not at a necessary state of ‘readiness’ and struggle to approach external partners strategically.
Starting with a detailed analysis and mapping of your university’s partnership goals and current partnering activities, this program provides you with evidence-based recommendations and global examples to guide your strategic partnerships.

How does it work?

Each university will form a core team of up to 6 representatives ranging from university leadership, research, academic and professional staff responsible for partnerships

The core team will participate in the group events, work collaboratively with UIIN and act as ambassadors within their university to drive the activities and translate the learnings

Each university team will have access to experts who will work closely with the teams to provide advice and recommendations

After the program, stay connected with your cohort peers as part of a network of program alumni
