The European University Information Systems Association (EUNIS), is the Association of Information Technology Services in European Higher Education and Research institutions. Founded in 1993, EUNIS aims to encourage cooperation between higher education institutions, and also with other organisations and industry suppliers.
Every two years EUNIS organises the “Rectors’ Conference”, which is co-organised and hosted by one of its members and attended by Presidents, Vice Presidents, Provosts, Vice Chancellors and Rectors from many HE institutions across Europe and beyond.
This year, the Conference entitled University 5.0 – Bridging people and technology, was on the mirrors the on-going developments in the industry and aimed to reflect on the implications of the close connection between people and technology in higher education strategy, policies, and governance. It was an excellent debating and networking forum to discuss and anticipate the impact of the latest developments in information technology and their role in enabling higher education institutions to succeed in a cooperative and competitive globalized world.
