AT&T* is entering a strategic relationship with Learfield, a collegiate marketer, to help deepen our reach within higher education institutions.
We’ll work with Learfield’s Campus+ division, which helps build campus-wide relationships that support university and business opportunities, to cultivate university partnerships that transform the traditional business relationship into more evolved experiences.
“Working with Learfield means sharpening our focus on education. University relationships are particularly important to us as we concentrate on developing tomorrow’s best and brightest as part of our future workforce,” said Chris Roy, vice president, Global Public Sector, AT&T. “Learfield brings deeply entrenched collegiate relationships to the table, and we look forward to exploring the synergies of this collaboration and the benefits we can bring to each university.”
Universities face increasing demands. Through this relationship with Learfield, we’ll work with administrators and other campus stakeholders to understand the unique challenges each university faces. Then, we’ll help design customized solutions that will deliver new and engaging experiences to students, faculty and alumni.
“Building technology-intensive campuses helps improve how students learn and find new ways to connect with each other. Teaming with Learfield will help us bring the latest technology, education and career opportunities to university communities,” Roy added.
Here’s what this may look like. Research and development opportunities will help further on-campus learning. And recruiting and mentoring opportunities will help students succeed beyond the classroom.
Learfield Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer Andy Rawlings said, “We've always been committed to connecting people with what they’re passionate about. And we've worked with AT&T for years. Our team is excited to further our relationship with AT&T to expand its business solutions on the campuses of our partner universities. Together, we’ll help bring new opportunities and technologies to our partner schools."

A new report published today by the Medicines Manufacturing Industry Partnership (MMIP) has asked the Government for support in building four new Centres of Excellence for medicines manufacturing across the UK. The centres would provide high-skilled jobs and make the UK the first place in the world where new drugs can be discovered, made and packaged.
​​​​‘Manufacturing Vision for UK Pharma​’, details how the centres would help plug gaps in the UK's capabilities in areas like diagnostics and packaging, advanced therapy production and small molecule processing. All regions of the UK would see highly skilled jobs created to help support and expand existing advance medicine research and development activity.
The Government has already made it clear that investing in cutting-edge healthcare and medicine is important and set-aside an investment of £197 million over 4 years to develop first-of-a-kind technologies for the manufacture of medicines 1 that will speed up patient access to new drugs and treatments, building on the exporting strengths of the UK's biopharmaceutical sector.
The NHS has also made commitments in its newest business plan to focus on "enhancement of our medicines manufacturing capabilities" 2.
The paper sets out a practical plan of action for how the Government and Industry can work together to build up the UK's medicine manufacturing sector. The roadmap seeks Government funding for four Centres of Excellence including:
A Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre (MMIC) in Scotland capable of providing a clinical supply of medicines and further develop manufacturing capabilities at EPSRC Centre for Innovative Manufacturing in Continuous Manufacturing and Crystallisation – already a world-class international hub for manufacturing research and training
An open-access facility to allow the manufacturing of complex medicines and handling of high-potency materials
A centre to support the development of the next generation of packaging technology and smart devices required for new types of medicines, such as specialised packs
The return on the £140 million investment over three years would be through company spend to access the research hubs, and through indirect investment as global companies choose the UK as a base to research and manufacture their medicines. These centres of excellence could be spread throughout the UK including in Scotland and the North of England.
Partnership working would ally 'bricks and mortar' investment from the Government, with world-leading talent and access to innovative research from industry. Access to the science centres of excellence would be on a pay-per-use basis, with UK universities and charities given discounted rates.
"The UK is already one of the best places in the world to research and develop exciting new medicines for hard-to-treat diseases, but needs to improve when it comes to manufacturing and packaging them, ready to go to patients.
"This new infrastructure is needed to ensure high-value jobs in manufacturing and packaging with know-how scales and grows here.
"From early-stage research and development to manufacturing and packaging, we want a coherent, joined up system so that patients will benefit when first-in-kind medicines are launched in the same place they are discovered."
The Centres of Excellence would allow staff to be trained alongside some of the best manufacturing and packaging experts in the world. A recent report estimated an additional 400-600 skilled staff will be required over the next 2 years to match the growth of the 'advanced therapies' drugs sector in the UK3.
This roadmap looks to support the UK Government's commitment to provide training in emerging technologies and make Britain 'future ready'. It also aims to provide the industry's priorities in medicines manufacturing to inform the Government's imminent Industrial Strategy and funding mechanisms such as the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund. The roadmap asks the Government to provide support for advanced therapies manufacturing as laid out in the 2016 Advanced Therapies Manufacturing Action Plan3.

From early-stage research and development to manufacturing and packaging, we want a coherent, joined up system so that patients will benefit when first-in-kind medicines are launched in the same place they are discovered.
The​ Medicines Manufacturing Industry Partnership (MMIP) represents the voice of medicines manufacturers in the UK. It was established jointly by Government and the biopharmaceutical industry in 2014 to ensure that the UK is recognised by the global medicines industry as a world-class, advanced centre for medicines manufacturing.
The UK's medicine industry is one of the country's leading manufacturing sectors, with exports worth over £20bn. The Partnership wants to ensure that the UK continues to be an attractive place for this high-value industry to secure exports, provide high skilled job opportunities and contribute to solving the country's productivity puzzle.​​

Hi, Mira, right at the end of one of the Absolutely Fabulous episodes, Edina is sitting on the grass outside an English country house. You can see the red-brick wing of the house behind her. The scene lasts only a few seconds. The episode had to do with yoga, spiritualism .... Do you happen to know which country house it is? I've searched the internet using every keyword I can think of but can't find the house. I'd like to visit it the next time I'm in England (if it's open to the public). Thanks for any help you can give. Over and out, Rosemary.
Why don't you start a new discussion with your question? As a response here to my post, it's less likely that other users on this wiki will see it. I'm a member of FANDOM's support team, which means I can help if there are problems, but I'm not an expert on the topic of this wiki, and so don't know how to answer your question.
The bread was lukewarm but easily tear able. The assorted olives and almond are a nice touch. The butter is slightly tangy but its the relish that wins the day with it flavourful punch.
Delicious and complex. I can't recall the sequence in which everything revealed itself but the strongest contenders were the horseradish with its peppery bite, the calming, exotic coconut and the sharp tang of the crimson barberries. This dish is fun. It also contained puffed wild rice, leek, and witlof.
The peas are cooked at a low temperature, therefore they still have that firmness as if straight from the pod. The mixture of grains added a nice textural element as did the house-made fromage frais with its soft coolness. The dish did lack a little 'oomph' and was slightly monotone in flavour but overall it was a nice, light dish.
The potato, which is sightly sweet perhaps from being cooked in cabbage, was tender but still firm - perfectly cooked. The smoked goat's cheese with coconut husk ash gave a wonderful tangy, smoky element to compliment the potatoes starchy creaminess. The crunchy fried saltbush leaves also worked well. R's also had dried Spanish tuna.
Unfortunately R did not enjoy this at all and barely ate half - it just didn't personally appeal to him.
The cream was thick and the dish was cold. The garlic was the key note and tended to mute everything else.
I'm not one for fried or pickled foods really so I wasn't a fan of this. It also had sweet maple glazed witlof and white onion puree, nasturtium leaf with kipfler potato chips. The braised kelp was lovely though and I liked the texture of the tofu - it was just a little heavy for me.
R thought this was ok - but he hated the relish, he didn't feel it went at all. He liked the pink lady apple reduction though.
Similar to the dish I had last visit - and once again I just didn't enjoy the texture or taste of the tomatoes. The other elements were nice though.
This time around the waitress suggested we mix everything together - I liked it a little more than last time but it still isn't a winning dish for me. R thought it reminded him of cheap cereal with dehydrated fruit. It's interesting. This is a combination of fromage frais, beetroot and almond cake, freeze dried raspberries, brewing malt, flowers, white pepper, golden kiwifruit, vanilla avocado jelly, & sorrel granita.
This made R's Top 10 last year and I am fairly certain it will again - he tried to scrape every drop from his AND my glass. I don't like icy treats like sorbet or ice-cream but for a cold dish, it's nice - the flavours of the violet fromage frais and crystallised flowers to the chocolate dust, house honeycomb crumble and butterscotch syrup make a dynamite team.
Service: Great. We had different staff each time but they all knew about the dishes and our water was always filled.
Atmosphere: Mellow. The lighting is definitely dark, towards the end of the evening it began to make us tired as the restaurant is also decorated in dark, woody hues. The noise level isn't very loud and the tables are spaced apart well. It has a stylish casual feel. The view this time was into the kitchen to a very strange looking and most likely expensive contraption, but there was also a lovely view into the courtyard, I would recommend being seated in this area rather than the front.
oh wow, the dishes look exceptional. In a way I'm glad to see some of the dishs from last year still on the menu, but in another I'd kinda hope for something completely new and different. Still well worth the visit I think
These were absolutely divine! I have never had taro before but these crispy parcels with their soft center were delicious.
A few drops of black vinegar was added to this, which R said turned this classic dish into something amazing, He requested more vinegar as he said it really just brought the dish to another level.
I could have eaten an entire bucket of this. No joke. I loved this dish, the texture and the complex flavours were fantastic. I need to get my hands on a bottle of that sauce...
The texture, which was akin to very runny egg whites, didn't appeal to me, it felt too slimy on the tongue. The tofu beneath though was lovely.
I love Chinese broccoli so this simply serving of lightly cooked Gai Lan with garlic was delicious to me.
Service: Great. Food came out at a reasonable pace, they accommodated me with a vegetarian degustation menu without any fuss at all, we were provided with moist hand towels and finger bowls and the wait staff were efficient and spoke decent English.
Atmosphere: Elegant but simple with a focus on harbour views. The decor is a mixture of neutral woods and glass with plenty of spacing between tables. The vibe was quite relaxed and most patrons weren't very dressed up.
Would I return: Yes, great food, good service and reasonably priced for a three Michelin star restaurant.
Glad you had a fairly enjoyable meal! I really should have gone there and it's been a major regret ever since...
I feel that LKH is a one off place. I don't think I will go there again even though the service is good and the food is good.
