jisc - rebooting a national innovation agency (eunis 2014)
DESCRIPTION
This is my presentation on "Rebooting" Jisc, from the EUNIS 2014 Congress at Umeå, Sweden. I begin by introducing Jisc, for anyone not already familiar with who we are and what we do. I highlight a few of our success stories that the EUNIS audience might not be familiar with, talk about some current projects - and how our focus and structure has changed following the Wilson Review. I close with our mission statement and vision for 2020.TRANSCRIPT

:: About Jisc :: Changes Post Wilson Review
‑ Shift in focus from building capability to building services‑ Or more properly: Build, buy or broker
‑ “More wood behind fewer arrows”‑ Difficulty in communicating value proposition for a
wide range of services with different stakeholders‑ CIOs, Librarians, Heads of E-Learning,
Government, …‑ Priorities to be set by community‑ Funding to be increasingly subscription based‑ “Futures Lab” role, focus on new technologies with
impact in 3-5 years
