ÌÇÐÄTV

ÌÇÐÄTV is proud to be a member of a number of prestigious networks in Europe. These networks provide ÌÇÐÄTV with a wealth of opportunities to effectively engage with higher education providers, researchers, policy-makers, industry and other actors across Europe.

The Guild of European Research-Intensive Universities

Founded in 2016, comprises twenty-three of Europe's most distinguished research-intensive universities in seventeen countries, and is dedicated to enhancing the voice of academic institutions, their researchers and their students. The Guild is committed to the pursuit of excellence, the importance of truth-seeking and trust-building as the foundation of public life, and the creation of new knowledge for the benefit of society, culture, and economic growth.

As a founding member of The Guild, ÌÇÐÄTV has benefitted from the development of The Guild’s reputation as a constructive voice in research policymaking in Brussels. The Guild’s focus on representing excellent, modern research-intensive universities has meant that ÌÇÐÄTV’s priorities have been well represented in Europe. With the UK’s departure from the EU, The Guild will continue to provide ÌÇÐÄTV with a voice in Brussels and it offers opportunities for our researchers to build closer ties to their counterparts.
