Hosted in partnership with The University of Sydney, the THE World Academic Summit 2023 will focus on the theme of collaboration. We will examine the role of higher education leaders and policymakers in diversifying and broadening ambitions and approaches to current global education systems.

The event will set the agenda for the future and ensure the higher education sector is best placed to respond to global challenges by expanding on these themes:

• Promoting gender equity and diversity
• Integrating multidisciplinary research initiatives
• Increasing cross-community collaboration
• Adopting new methods of teaching and learning

Join some of the world’s most influential leaders and change-makers to discuss how institutions can best collaborate; both internally across departments to accelerate transformative and translational research and externally through partnerships with industry, government and civil society to advance the implementation of world-class innovation.

A gala dinner will feature the exclusive live reveal of the THE World University Rankings 2024, followed by an in-depth masterclass from THE’s data team the following morning. The masterclass will feature detailed analysis and insight into the key findings, trends and stories from the data.
