Universities UK have published regional briefings to examine how and why universities have an important link to the UK’s industrial strategy.
The briefings show that at the local and regional level, universities support growth by providing and creating jobs, and lead on local economic and social issues. Areas of focus include local businesses, big businesses, communities, school leavers and local services.
Bournemouth University is included in the south-west briefing.
