Jisc

Jisc is the UK digital, data and technology agency focused on tertiary education, research and innovation. We help organisations build the trusted digital foundations they need to collaborate securely, move data confidently and scale discovery, innovation and public benefit.

Through Janet, the UK’s National Research and Education Network, Jisc provides high-capacity, resilient and secure connectivity designed for data-intensive research, advanced collaboration, cloud access and critical digital services. Janet connects education, research and innovation organisations to each other, to international research and education networks, to cloud and content providers, and to the wider ecosystems that enable scientific and technological progress.

As a public-purpose, not-for-profit organisation, Jisc operates infrastructure on behalf of the communities we serve, with a focus on long-term value,resilience, trust and control rather than commercial return. Alongside connectivity, we bring together cyber security, cloud, trust and identity, procurementexpertise and sector intelligence to help organisations make informed, sovereignty-aware infrastructure choices.

For research and innovation communities, including organisations working in space, satellite, data, AI, quantum and advanced technologies, this meansstronger foundations for secure data movement, trusted collaboration, operational resilience and future growth. Jisc helps organisations look beyondindividual technology decisions and understand whether the digital infrastructure beneath their ambitions is ready to support what comes next.
