Universities as core partners in realising the Industrial Strategy - Luke Geo...Higher Education Funding Council for England
Universities play a key role in realising the UK's Industrial Strategy through their contributions to local economies. They attract private investment and develop talent, while founding businesses and connecting to global networks. However, universities face expectations to demonstrate economic and social impacts across all sectors. Building strong innovation ecosystems requires collaboration between universities, businesses, investors, and other stakeholders to share skills, funding, services, knowledge and ideas. Universities must balance their roles in research, education, and business engagement by configuring teams around partners' challenges without compromising excellence and by learning best practices from one another.Ecce Kick Off Presentation

Investing around the world- for the August Festival
The document discusses strategies for startups to go global from an early stage. It notes that mobile apps, SaaS, IOT, and wearable technologies are well-suited for early global expansion. While companies in the past established themselves domestically first before expanding abroad, today startups can be "born global" by seeking out global talent, tapping investors worldwide, and managing remote operations from the start. Government resources like tax incentives in various countries can also support global investment and growth. Hiring international interns is suggested as another way for startups to start building a global presence early on.

Starting a Wine Collection
A consultant for Blackstone Group investment firm in New York, Steven Saslow has over 40 years of experience in the field of finance and banking. Steven Saslow has worked with Blackstone since 2002, when he joined them as a managing director.
Understanding Professional Tennis Rankings
The document discusses professional tennis rankings. It explains that both the ATP and WTA use a 52-week, cumulative point system to rank players based on their performance in tournaments. Grand slam tournaments are the most valuable, offering 2000 points to winners. A player's points from a given tournament disappear after a year, making it seem like players must defend their points the following year at the same event. The conclusion notes that both tours also track yearly point races to complement the 52-week rankings and provide a sense of players' current form throughout the season.
New Vincent van Gogh Exhibit at Metropolitan Museum of Art
Steven Saslow works as a hedge fund consultant for Blackstone in New York City and has over 40 years of experience in finance. He also enjoys art collecting and is a member of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The MMA is hosting a special exhibition this summer featuring four floral works by Vincent van Gogh painted shortly before his death, including irises and roses from other collections appearing together for the first time since their creation.
Understanding Baseball's Infield Fly Rule
The document discusses the infield fly rule in baseball. It explains that the rule can come into effect when there are runners on first and second base with less than two outs. If an infielder can easily catch a pop fly with normal effort, the batter is automatically called out, but the runners may still advance at their own risk. The purpose of the rule is to prevent the defense from intentionally dropping an easy pop fly in order to turn it into a double play.
Popular Expressions in Tennis
Steven Saslow worked as chief investment officer and managing director at Blackstone from 2002 to 2007. He continues to consult for Blackstone while enjoying tennis. In tennis, "love" is used to refer to zero in scores. Terms like "bagels" and "bread sticks" refer to winning sets by 6-0 or 6-1 scores. Phrases like "take one" and "take two" indicate the number of serves remaining after a let or stoppage during a serve.
Signals in Youth Baseball
Steven Saslow previously coached his sons' Little League baseball teams in Manhattan after a career as chief investment officer for the Blackstone Group. A key lesson for young baseball players is receiving signals from the third base coach, as the coach can signal to batters and runners on second base whether to steal bases or bunt. Coaches develop personalized signals using gestures like touching part of their uniform to conceal the signals from the opposing team.

Blackstone Expands First International LaunchPad Program in Ireland
- 1. BLACKSTONE EXPANDS FIRST INTERNATIONAL LAUNCHPAD PROGRAM IN IRELAND By Steven Saslow, Blackstone
- 2. Introduction A seasoned investor with more than four decades of experience with Wall Street hedge funds, banks and advisory firms, Steven Saslow retired from his executive position at the Blackstone Group in 2007. Steven Saslow continues to lend his insights to the Blackstone leadership team as a consultant, and he remains closely involved in business programs at local universities. As a premier global investment and advisory firm, Blackstone has remained committed to creating lasting value through strategic business investments that include investments in the business leaders of the future.

The LaunchPad is the first of its kind abroad, and is joined by six other U.S. LaunchPad locations in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, Montana, and California. In addition to providing exclusive tools and business coaching with industry leaders through the Global Network Technology Program, each LaunchPad location offers students with access to an international community of over 350,000 like-minded peers and experienced advisers.
