Fostering Collaboration Between Suppliers and Higher Education Leaders
HE Impact is where senior university leaders shape the future of operational delivery. Align your brand with their transformation agenda, influence long-term investment decisions, and connect with the people reimagining the university model for 2035 and beyond.

Why HE Impact is the Essential Event for Your Brand
Unlike any other event in the sector, HE Impact is purpose-built around the transformation agenda shaping higher education to 2035. With new government priorities, sector taskforces and investment challenges pushing operational change to the top of the agenda, now is the moment to position your brand as essential to the future delivery model. Exhibiting or sponsoring puts you at the heart of that conversation, where budgets are being shaped and change is being led.
Engage with Decision-Makers at the Heart of Change
Designed as a decision-making hub, HE Impact connects you directly with the senior leaders mapping out their institution’s future. From Vice Chancellors and COOs to Directors of Estates, Transformation and Digital, you’ll be engaging with those driving high-value strategies and making procurement decisions across every core function. This is your chance to network with those who are shaping the operational landscape of higher education.
Seize the Moment: Empower University Transformation
For suppliers, HE Impact represents a pivotal commercial moment. Universities are under pressure to radically reshape how they operate, driven by financial strain, shifting student needs, and major reform agendas. They’re not just open to transformation, they’re actively seeking partners who can help deliver it. This is your opportunity to showcase how your solutions can support long-term change across the sector.

Set the Stage for New Partnerships!
The HE Impact agenda is built around the most urgent and forward-looking challenges facing UK universities. Every stage and stream is designed to equip leaders with the insights and tools needed to reimagine service delivery, drive innovation and reshape their institutions for 2035 and beyond.For suppliers, this is your opportunity to align your offer with the sector’s most pressing priorities, from digital and estates to business operations and market innovation, and demonstrate how your solutions can support impactful, long-term change.
The Product and Market theatre connects suppliers with leaders redefining student recruitment, course design and commercial strategy. As universities explore new markets, modular delivery and next-gen offerings, it’s your chance to align your solution with the future of HE.
