The Head of Digital Experience at the UNSW, Martin Hoegh-Guldberg stated that the significant technology deployment is a part of the 5-year-long transformation of the tertiary education facilitator's digital ecosystem and also ties into UNSW's strategic long-term vision of obtaining the top-50 global university status by the year 2025.
