Building Award-Winning Transnational Education Ecosystems
Our 2025 EFMD Silver Award, won in partnership with King's Business School, recognises our unique expertise in developing impactful consortiums for executive education, capacity building and transnational education (TNE) initiatives.
We partner with UK universities and development agencies to design and deliver programmes that create genuine, sustainable impact, leveraging our proven methodology for cross-institutional collaboration.
What makes us special
Our unique capability is in orchestrating complex, multi-institutional collaborations that deliver systemic impact on a national and international scale. We do not simply facilitate introductions; we design and manage the architecture of collaboration, building enduring communities of practice among diverse, and often competing, organisations.
This specialism is proven through our work on government-backed national reforms and large-scale international development projects, and has been formally recognised with a 2025 Merit Award specifically for "developing cross-institutional collaboration".

Commercialisation: Innovation to Entrepreneurship
Most innovations fail to find a market. We help creative entrepreneurs build a customer-centric mindset, market testing expertise, and expansive ecosystem networks to succeed and realise their innovations’ true potential
Leadership development of university and college executive teams
To keep up with the changing employability and skills landscape, countries regularly transform their HE and FE policies and curricula. ChangeSchool is helping FE institutions in the UK develop leadership capacity and scale to embrace this innovation and deliver system-wide changes effectively.
Global University rankings and accreditation
University rankings are a powerful indicator of student employability and global mobility, attracting the best students and producing knowledge and IP. ChangeSchool is helping higher education institutions in the Asia Pacific develop systemic approaches to improve their global ranking.
Empowering Entrepreneurship Globally
Empowering entrepreneurship globally.

Innovating Learning for
a New Era
I delivered a webinar on frugal innovation in large and small firms in developed and emerging economies for ChangeSchool’s British Council programme on March 28, 2018.
To prepare for the webinar I worked with their team over a couple of days prior to the webinar itself. I have developed and delivered similar webinars in the past in my role as professor of marketing at Cambridge Judge Business School. So I went into the process with some preconceived ideas of what to do, quite confident that my approach was fine.
Neil and Viren quickly disabused me of these notions! In a short space of time, I realised that my old approach needed to be brought into the 21st century and made fit for purpose for the online medium.
Overall, I enjoyed the whole process and learned a great deal in the process.

How Transforming University Systems Could Create Jobs
In his TEDx talk, Neil explores how transforming university systems can have a direct impact on job creation and economic growth. He argues that by shifting the focus beyond traditional education, universities can become powerful engines for innovation and societal change. This insightful presentation offers a fresh perspective on how academic institutions can drive real-world progress.
