It is now available to watch via our Youtube channel.
Ravensbourne on Record aims to bring educators and creative, tech and business leaders together to examine how academia and industry can coalesce, collaborate and learn with one another.
Hosted by Deputy Vice Chancellor Professor Simon Robertshaw, the third episode features Jack Perschke, CEO of Great Wave AI, Austin Earl, Programme Manager for Education and Edtech at TechUK, and Dr Naureen Farhan, Interim Course Leader of BSc (Hons) Creative Computing at Ravensbourne.
On diversifying the tech sector...
The most in-demand tech skills are people skills; you can always find someone who can code their way out of a problem. The more flexible we can be about how people can progress, the better that is for education and industry.”
This episode of Ravensbourne on Record demonstrates the University’s continuing commitment to facilitating open and honest discussions between education and industry. Conversations like these are a core principle of Ravensbourne’s new 2030 strategy, as well as aligning with the Government’s latest industrial plan, and are therefore critical to innovation and growth within the creative, tech and business sectors.
