Taking inspiration from the Scottish Enlightenment, our ambition is to support collaboration and to intensify Edinburgh's impressive profile as an international centre of academic research and innovation – creating a stage for ideas that change the world.
Drawing knowledge and expertise from business events, the goals of the Exchange Initiative are to:
- Raise the profile of Edinburgh's key sectors.
- Create lasting positive impacts for the city in the fields of health, wellbeing and sustainability.
- Boost community engagement.
