Our fringe event at #SNP26 gets underway with @BenMacpherson @sarathiam of @scdi & our very own Prof Miller of @UniWestScotland - we're talking about the Future Framework (naturally) & areas of alignment between uni & business priorities for economic success in Scotland.

A strong message from @neilcgray on the strength of partnership between the NHS & universities & lots of enthusiasm for closer collaboration to come. Lots of opportunities to be realised in the co-owned Future Framework. #SNP26

Our Convener, Professor James Miller, Principal of @UniWestScotland has written a blog for @HEPI_news discussing the Future Framework and other aspects of higher education and the link between HE and the Scottish Parliament. Read the blog below⬇️ hepi.ac.uk/2026/03/11/sco…
