Vision and priorities for the new Government 2017
09 Jun 2017
As the UK prepares to leave the EU, more than ever we must play to our strengths.
The fruits of science & engineering enrich all our lives. In an increasingly competitive global economy, they will also be the drivers of future innovation, productivity gains, and high-value job creation.
Our six priority areas for government:
- Equip providers to deliver high-quality STEM education and training that is open to all
- Create a migration system that supports mobility for excellence, skills, education and collaboration
- Grow the UK’s leadership and collaboration in research & innovation internationally
- Invest at a level and in such a way as to enhance the UK’s research & innovation environment
- Deliver a stable regulatory environment that facilitates trade, access to markets and innovation
- Champion the use of evidence and science advice in all government decisions, documents and messaging
