Collaborating for impact: The launch of the Enginuity Alliance

Enginuity is proud to announce the launch of the Enginuity Alliance, a movement of like-minded organisations and individuals, committed to working together to remove the barriers preventing the industry from developing the skills it needs. 

Details of The Enginuity Alliance were shared in an afternoon reception hosted by Mike Reader, Labour MP for Northampton South, yesterday. 

About the Enginuity Alliance 

No one can close the skills gap on their own. Members of the Enginuity Alliance, also known as allies will have the satisfaction of knowing they are part of the collective action to solve the challenges facing the engineering and manufacturing sector. Allies will also benefit from and contribute to the charity’s work, shaping the agenda and amplifying the projects impact.  

As a charity that is entirely impact-driven and solution-agnostic, we are positioned to support and collaborate with organisations through the Enginuity Alliance, while focusing on a macro industry level and examining the sector. 

Collaboration and support 

Attendees of yesterday’s celebratory event included MPs, sector leaders, apprentices, and education advocates. The launch focused on the Enginuity Alliance’s vision of a collective solution and aligning education and development with the practical needs of the sector. 

John Parkes, Head of Enginuity Charity, shared: “The Enginuity Alliance is a movement that aims to give everyone a voice in shaping policy, to articulate the support they actually need, and to access that support through the community they are part of.  

“But we also aim to bring together those who are doing good, whose solutions make a genuine impact but need to be elevated and amplified to deliver even greater benefit.  

“As the sector connector, Enginuity wants to use the Alliance to seek out individuals and organisations delivering truly innovative solutions and help them widen their impact through funding, support and taking them directly to the community as it grows.” 

Sir Jim McDonald GBE, Chair of Enginuity, added: “I believe Enginuity is uniquely positioned, as a charity, to act as the sector connector through the Alliance; to bring together those with solutions to these challenges and the beneficiaries who need them most.”
