The Conference

The Forum

A day of powerful talks
28 Feb 2024
08:30 am

Commissioned for 2024 by popular demand, the inaugural conference aims to provide a strategic platform for leaders in the UK and Indian HE sectors to interact directly with students, alumni and those that support international HE. The Forum is a day-long series of plenaries, breakouts and keynotes and promises a paradigm shift in the dialogue on international higher ed and the India-UK corridor, placing young people at the heart of these conversations.

 

We're bringing together trailblazers and subject matter experts to discuss hot topics that really matter to students and the sector alike. From employability, immigration and artificial intelligence to what elections in both countries are looking like, and from the skills agenda to transnational education partnerships – we are going to deliver an agenda that:

 

  • Is designed by YOU

  • Makes an actual difference to the very students without whom there wouldn’t be an international education sector

  • Has an incredible line-up of speakers

  • Is bold, positively disruptive and doesn’t shy away from asking uncomfortable questions…

 

Join more than 500 participants from across the sector for a day of transformation, in-person, in London.

 

The event is open to the sector, bringing together representatives from across government; parliamentarians; Universities including VCs / Pro VCs, International Recruitment, International Partnerships and TNE, Communications and Marketing, Regional Directors; Heads of sector bodies – together with international Indian students and alumni, influencers, and the media.
