🏆 QS Reimagine Education Awards & Conference 2025
📅 1–3 December
📍 QEII Centre, Westminster, London

The world’s leading conference and awards celebrating innovation in education. This year’s theme, Mind the Gap: It’s Getting Wider explores how universities are reinventing their models for a rapidly changing future. Others remain constrained by legacy systems and slow-moving policies. The message is clear: in a time of transformation, institutions must evolve or risk being left behind.

What’s happening in London:

• Showcase pitches: Watch finalists present breakthrough innovations in teaching, learning, and employability.
• Panel sessions: Hear from global experts on AI in education, sustainability, digital learning, and student success.
• Awards ceremony: Celebrate the projects and people redefining the future of learning worldwide.

Don’t miss this unique chance to connect, collaborate, and celebrate innovation in education.

With 14 global summits, conferences, and forums on the horizon, 2026 is set to be our most connected year yet. From Goa to Shenzhen, Abu Dhabi to Singapore, join peers and thought leaders across sectors and continents and become part of a global network advancing new ideas, insights and opportunities in higher education.
