About the STEM UEN

University Enterprise Networks (UEN) are being established across England to stimulate the development of sustainable partnerships between education, government and industry that enhance the contribution of enterprise to our future economic prosperity. Each UEN has a specific focus and a geographical focal point. In the South-East Region, the emphasis is on STEM and the STEM-UEN brings together Microsoft and BAE Systems in partnership with the Universities of Oxford, Reading and Southampton and supported by SEEDA. A key component of the UEN activity is to engage with you and provide new business ideas in the science, technology and math high grow areas.

The following organisations and universities across the South East make up the STEM University Enterprise Network.
