How does our regeneration spend per student compare to [civic university we’d like to emulate]?

How do we perform on civic impact metrics compared to universities nationally and in our region over the past 5 years?
What proportion of the business support provided by universities in our region have we delivered over the past 5 years? How much is this per resident?
