“Modern universities support excellent research, are global players in research collaboration and key drivers of the UK’s research and innovation agenda at home. We warmly welcome the appointment of Greg Clark MP as Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. The new department has a much wider remit to progress an agenda that includes the challenge of tackling regional inequality and we look forward to working with him again.”
