People are taking notice of Coventry University. We have rapidly moved up the league tables and grown to become one of the UK’s biggest, most dynamic, and enterprising higher education institutions. Coventry University is an organisation that’s going places.

Enterprise & Innovation is one of the key pillars of the overarching Coventry University Strategy, with the University continuing to be recognised locally, nationally and internationally by strategic business partners and governments as an enterprising and innovative University. The Enterprise & Innovation Organisation is designed to provide a platform through which business and society can leverage the teaching, research and wider expertise of Coventry University Group to create better futures for individuals and organisations.
The Enterprise & Innovation Organisation work across global markets, in particular the UK, SE Asia, Middle East & North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Eastern Europe providing support and expertise to support lifetime learning, stimulate industrial research, develop high-value strategic partnerships, and commercialise new ideas and the current products/knowledge that will also drive our performance against the Knowledge Exchange Framework (KEF).
Cultural diversity in our teams bring insights to, and broad experience of, multiple business cultures. It is part of our DNA and we seek it out.
