We are delighted to be partnering with the prestigious Swedish university KTH Royal Institute of Technology for the Innovation & Impact Summit 2022.

The summit will build on THE’s global dialogue to unite leaders of the best and most ambitious universities with policymakers, world-class researchers and the companies that are shaping our future, around the contribution that higher education institutions can make to a successful, prosperous and sustainable innovation ecosystem.

The summit covers three days of interviews, debates and discussions, and networking events including a gala dinner, drinks receptions, lunches and social events. We invite you to join this essential conversation, in partnership with KTH, among university leaders, innovators, investors, research directors and policymakers across the globe, to build your understanding of the most pressing issues in global higher education.

The summit will also feature the exclusive reveal of the THE University Impact Rankings – the largest ever global data-set on university impact, measured by the United Nations’ SDGs – along with a masterclass to identify the best-performing institutions and respond to audience questions and critique of the findings and the methodology.

Leaders will gather to explore some of the deep issues that affect the creation of a positive environment for innovation, and question how research universities can sustain and support that environment. We will debate the importance of talent, regulation, diversity and investment in delivering a prosperous innovation climate, and what kind of impact that may have in the market and in wider society.
