Vision and mission

Higher education and research lie at the heart of the knowledge economy.

Our mission is to monitor the decisions, actions and projects of universities, schools and institutions (such as states and the European Union), and to understand the challenges, strategies and evolution of education and research systems.

What does News Tank Academic offer?

News Tank Academic is a media outlet that has been published by News Tank Education & Research since May 2024. The latter has been in existence since 2014.

We offer:

• an 'Institutions' section covering the decisions, actions, projects, strategies and challenges of the main higher education institutions, funding bodies, research operators, technology transfer agencies, etc.
• a 'Politics' section dedicated to governance in higher education, research and innovation, particularly in Europe;

Our unique product disseminates information in a new way.

News Tank's motto is ‘Make informed decisions’. In the age of AI, data, social media and the explosion of poor-quality information on the web, we are reinventing the concept of a news agency. In particular, this is achieved through an editorial charter that defines our rules and methods for producing information.

This has led us to return to the fundamentals of journalism: providing factual, neutral and responsive information enriched by data.

Our role is to provide you with useful information at the right time.

In the age of data, fake news on social media and free, often poor-quality information on the web, we are reinventing the concept of a news agency.

This is why we want to return to the fundamentals of journalism: providing factual, neutral and responsive information enriched by data and supplemented by analyses from experts and leaders.
