Solutions specifically developed to meet the most important challenges the higher education sector has identified it is currently facing

HEDx services and solutions have been specifically developed to meet the most important challenges currently facing the higher education sector. These challenges range from post-COVID strategy and new world experience demands through to culture transformation. Our conferences, executive briefings and market leading podcast series act as a form of open engagement with the sector and shed light on and provide critical support for industry challenges, solutions, leaders and the industry as a whole. HEDx solutions are designed to support universities by helping shape strategic decision making with broad consideration for the sector, emerging social trends and individual brand and commercial equity objectives.

HEDx Conferences

HEDx conferences explore and challenge current policy, economic and social context and university culture. The HEDx team will source leading local and international talent, before curating and facilitating a meaningful and practical dialogue aimed at shifting and shaping university strategy, culture and student experience.

The HEDx conference format is a half day dynamic event that addresses current and pressing issues for the higher education sector. In 2023, the HEDx conferences featured international speakers and thought leaders from the world’s leading professional services firms.

HEDx Challenge Conference (March 2023)
The HEDx Challenge Conference explored and challenged current thinking, strategy and culture in the higher education sector. The conference featured a wide range of global thought leaders from within the sector and from leading ed tech and professional services firms.

The first conference theme was ‘challenge’ and the interrogation of the current operating models in universities to inspire new thinking and solutions to benefit more open access to sustainable practices and other commitments to purpose in higher education that can lead to success for individual universities and the sector as a whole.

HEDx Mid Year Conference (July 2023)
The HEDx Mid Year Conference investigated the Australian Universities Accord and facilitated discussion with HEDx members and leading sector commentators and advisors.

The conference was an opportunity to bring international thought leadership together with local expertise in shifting the higher education experience to a more equitable, inclusive, purposeful and sustainable position.

Advisory

The governance of a university’s reputation, brand and culture is imperative to its health and performance. Many higher education institutions have recently transformed their executive teams as the sector rapidly moves towards a fast-paced, uncertain future. HEDx advisory services support councils and executive teams in strategy and critical decision making. Our research capability across the sector and in other fields provides our clients with deep insights accompanied by validated strategic recommendations.

Importantly, HEDx advisory services remain agnostic and passionately collaborative with our clients existing and potential partners. This facilitates productive cooperation and enables open leverage of key insights into performance-based solutions.
