Knowledge Exchange (KE) Concordat

QMU was one of the first Scottish universities to sign up to the new national agreement in which UK institutions commit to develop their knowledge exchange activities. The KE Concordat (external PDF) seeks to enhance knowledge exchange within universities through the exchange of good practice and act as a catalyst for collaboration between universities, industry and wider society. This comes at a vital time as the sector responds to COVID-19 and as QMU continues to demonstrate the importance of knowledge exchange to local and national economic and social outcomes.

The KE Concordat will help us strengthen the link between KE and impact by changing our focus from short term interventions to culturally embedded behaviours and practices.
