🎉 We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with the London School of Innovation (LSI): the UK’s first AI-native higher education institution forging the leaders of our AI-powered tomorrow. This collaboration with Perlego’s library of 1.5 million+ books played a part in LSI receiving degree-awarding powers this year. 📚 💬 Dr. Paresh Kathrani FRSA, Director of Education at LSI,  says: “As an AI-native institution delivering our programmes online, it matters to us that students have a rich and accessible library experience wherever they are. Partnering with Perlego gives our students instant access to a huge range of academic books, alongside intelligent tools that support the way they research and learn. It fits very naturally with how we have designed LSI: giving students the technology, resources, and support they need to learn independently, think critically, and turn ideas into innovation.” 💬 Katharine Templeton, Head of UK Partnerships at Perlego, adds: “LSI is building something unique: an ambitious, digital-first institution. We're proud to be a core part of how their students will access knowledge from day one, with inclusive features to help level the playing field. Perlego is excited to collaborate with LSI as they launch their September degree intake and beyond." We can’t wait to be part of building tomorrow’s leaders with LSI and this partnership! 🚀
