Supplier Event

Attended an event in Nottingham last week which included a discussion about the future of IT in Higher Education as a result of the fees changes and perceived introduction of a more competitive versus collaborative landscape in the future. Opinions were divided on the similarities and differences between HE/public sector and private sector from an IT perspective. The discussion was pre-faced by a fascinating informal presentation from a senior IT guy in Next who had previously worked in the sector at both an "old" and a "new" University as well as in other public and private sector roles. He was kind enough to share the notes he used as a basis for the main themes.
