To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-26080 by Mairi McAllan on 25 March 2024, whether the 58 actions published in its report, The Entrepreneurial Campus, have been delivered, and what mechanisms are in place to scrutinise the delivery.
The Scottish Government is working with partners, including the college and university sector, to deliver the ten-year Entrpreneurial Campus Blueprint. We continue to align this work with existing policies such as Techscaler, the Innovation Strategy and the Knowledge Exchange and Innovation Fund to drive change. This year, we are also investing £700k to accelerate the implementation of the recommendations by funding four key projects.
Each project includes evaluation metrics, and we are also making use of existing reporting tools such as the as the Knowledge Exchange and Innovation Fund reporting undertaken by the Scottish Funding Council. Outcomes from the funded projects will be reported through established channels, including the National Strategy for Economic Transformation annual report.
