LCCI champions the needs of the education sector in London. London’s Colleges and Universities contribute tremendously to economic growth and is a critical sector for the capital. According to London Higher, every year London Universities produce 140,000+ skilled graduates, 70% of whom stay in London to work after graduation. Higher education campuses are also economic hubs that add value to their local areas, with individual universities generating up to 10 billion of economic impact across the capital and the UK.
