Higher Education Practice
China is an increasingly central part of the global knowledge economy and Chinese students remain a key part of the UK university community. Yet both of these trends are complex and contested and require sophisticated and nuanced leadership and operational capacity.
UKNCC’s Higher Education Practice provides your institution with the confidence to make informed decisions about your current and future engagement with China. We understand the risks, and the opportunities, of engagement with China and provide you with the strategic and operational clarity to manage both.
We organise our support across four thematic modules:
Visitor Economy Practice
Chinese visitor spending in the UK is expected to grow strongly through 2030, driven by increased flight capacity, visa process improvements and longer average stays and higher spend per visit. 64% of nights spent by Chinese visitors are outside London as tourists seek regional travel experiences.
UKNCC’s Visitor Economy Practice provides business in hospitality, entertainment and travel sectors with a comprehensive set of services and fractional team support to help your business attract and serve this high value and growing customer segment. Whether you currently attract Chinese visitors or have yet to start, we can improve your performance.
