About HES Technology
The focus of HES Technology is to provide more effective technology solutions for the higher education sector. We do that by identifying technology providers that possess technology or software platforms that are beneficial to the sector and helping to establish and manage collaborative partnerships between those providers and higher education institutions.
Importantly, HES negotiates favourable terms with these providers and develops a level of service that makes their product more effective or easier to use. We then advise the higher education sector of the availability of the technology, facilitate its adoption and ensure that technology licences are understood and managed correctly.
