That the Parliament commends the launch of the LevelUp! initiative; recognises that this is a collaborative effort between XpoNorth and the University of the Highlands and Islands; understands that the initiative allows students from the creative industries sector to learn, develop and make connections in the industry; further understands that it will give more than 1,000 students access to the free-to-use service, and notes that this initiative will further develop the creative sector in the Highlands and Islands, which it believes is already worth around £740 million and accounts for more than 5,000 jobs.
