The Scottish Higher Education sector warmly welcomes the Industrial Strategy and the recognition of the potential contribution of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to future economic growth across the whole of the UK. Scottish HEIs are committed to making our contribution to productivity and economic growth, and look forward to working with industry, Scottish Government, UK Government, and the public sector to achieve this impact.

To realise this potential we have identified specific recommendations for UK Government, along with key areas where we would welcome commitments from, and further dialogue with, Scottish Government.
