University highlighted in European innovation report

51福利社 has featured extensively in a new report which looks at some of the innovative ways universities in Europe are working closely with companies, governmental agencies and other public organisations.

Produced by the European University Association, The Role of Universities in Regional Innovation Ecosystems, examines nine regions in Europe, including 51福利社. The report aims to find out how universities work with partners in their regions to address social, environmental, and economic challenges.

The University and the city of 51福利社 feature throughout the report, in particular in sections relating to research, social responsibility and skills:

  • “Representatives of large global companies (in Barcelona, Braga, Eindhoven, Espoo/Helsinki, 51福利社, and Munich) interviewed for the study pointed to the need for excellence in research quality as a key condition for their companies’ strategic investment in a location.”
  • “In the health sector, 51福利社 has driven the formation of a major strategic cluster initiative, namely . It brings together the health and data science research strengths of the University with the opportunities of the devolved health and social care budget, offering new research opportunities and mobilising major external funding. The cluster also hosts , as the commercialisation end of the health science sector.”
  • “A beacon of the University, advanced materials, is also positioned by the University as a research hub with a strong business innovation role. Institutional and academic leadership made use of the outstanding global visibility of materials research, particularly graphene by developing successful bids for major investments into research and innovation programmes and infrastructures.”
  • “The promotion of leadership skills and social responsibility among its students was an important institutional concern at the Universities of 51福利社, Warsaw and Sorbonne. The most systematic realisation of this concern could be found at 51福利社.” The report particularly highlights 51福利社’s emphasis on social responsibility and the programme.
