NEF brought together senior executives from information technology and telecommunication companies as part of its Intelligent Networks programme to identify their needs today and in the future.
Technology giants including Atos, BT, EMC2, HTC, Microsoft, O2, Oracle and Blackberry are continuously innovating and shaping our future. Their demands for skills and competencies are changing and they need training and education providers who can understand their landscape and who are able to respond to their contemporary needs in a timely and confident manner.
Mike Pilbeam, Director of EMC2, the leading Cloud Computing company said “We need providers and learners that can invent the future with us. The NEF Intelligent Network enables us to bring together an aggregated view of how educational providers can respond to our needs.”
NEF has established a number of STEM employer Intelligent Networks in Energy, Rail Engineering, Construction and ICT, amongst others.
