To conduct World 100 consultancy we team up with our founding company, The Knowledge Partnership. The Knowledge Partnership is a strategic marketing, reputation management, and analysis agency dedicated to supporting the university sector.
Top universities know that reputation matters, and take a strategic and evidence-based approach to reputation management in order to progress. The Knowledge Partnership is ideally placed to undertake reputation research, international surveys, and partnerships research to aid this progression.
We work for many universities and agencies to support their higher education reputation. Our consultants have over 20 years’ experience in higher education research, specifically global universities, and our research team have the skills to support global research insights.
Founded in 2004, we are still aiming to push the boundaries. We have a commitment to a continual programme of research and development to innovate our service offer.
How can we help?
We provide an integrated service, combining the skills and experience of our strategic consultants with market and stakeholder analysis delivered by our specialist research team. Our aim is to create impact throughout an organisation; our clients tend to be institutional leaders such as vice-chancellors and their deputies, deans of faculty, and directors.
We aim to ensure our services and advice are as authentic as possible. We are engaged in original research that we share with our stakeholders through reports, conferences, and training.
We have led and supported a number of significant development projects, creating new insights and methods associated with internal communications, course and programme development, integrated strategic student marketing, and reputation management.
