At this roundtable dinner, guests will receive exclusive access to the 2026 edition of the HEPI / Kortext report on students’ use and views of generative AI in their studies.

Policymakers and senior leaders from across the HE sector will come together to explore how AI might change the future university experience, considering:
• How AI changes what it means to be an expert in teaching and learning
• How should higher education institutions support staff in developing confidence and competence in using AI for teaching
• Where the gaps are between teaching staff and students’ use and knowledge of AI
• How we can ensure staff are preparing students for an AI-focused labour market.

The dinner will bring together a mix of colleagues in the higher education sector, including senior leaders and policymakers from across the region.

The discussion will be chaired by Nick Hillman OBE, HEPI’s Director, under the Chatham House Rule.
