About the UKTIN Strategic Groups

The UK Telecoms Innovation Network (UKTIN) convenes expertise from across the industry, academia, and government stakeholders, bringing distinct specialisms and knowledge pools together. The network provides a forum where different businesses and organisations in the telecoms innovation ecosystem can collaborate and co-create cohesive positions and new approaches to R&D and innovation.

A key output of this is providing a coherent and informed voice that will support the shaping and delivery of new government policies, and drive a strategic vision. By consulting widely across the telecoms innovation ecosystem, we strive to convene and understand the needs of all parties, cohesively communicating these needs and creating a shared public and private sector strategic vision. The UKTIN Strategic Groups are our vehicle to achieve this.

Recruited through an open and inclusive process, our Strategic Groups represent experts from industry, academia, government and regulatory bodies, bringing together an unparalleled pool of talent and experience.
