V good @FT @timleunig piece, with hard truths about UK economy & what needs to be done about it, relevant to both parties
This para is striking - small firms are lionised, but it's big firms that drive productivity & R&D, & we don't have enough of them

There has been a great deal of discussion about *what* our industrial policy should fund — but far less about *how* to fund it.

That needs to change, because the status quo — industrial-policy-by-tax credit — is rife with problems.

There is huge potential to improve government by securely linking and analysing data held across many different parts of it. We need robust political leadership to make this the rule, not the exception, writes our Chair Sir Robert Chote⬇️

Great to be quoted by @TheEconomist in a piece that highlights @NovaSBE ability to attract international students/faculty, while fostering Portugal's progress in attracting and integrating skilled talent: "Portugal is something of a model in this respect." https://t.co/wGXXFJTgZa

Three Reasons we should place a higher value on Meta-Research

The long term sources of growth are ideas, R&D, technology and its adoption argues @danielsusskind (which implies a rather central role for @SciTechgovuk)

[Richard Jones @RichardALJones]

Another great hope of the UK's tech industry falls into foreign ownership. Not sure what to think of this - clearly Graphcore needs backers with deep pockets to realise its potential, but what stops UK capital markets playing that role?
Ownership = control, and that matters.

Over the last decade we’ve seen the rise of university policy institutes. (I’m involved with @policyatkings @BennettInst @UCLPolicyLab personally). It’s great to see @CAPE_acuk has done some lesson learning on what works
