THE) delivered yet another bumper edition of its Impact Rankings on 21 April. There were exactly 1,239 institutions across 98 countries which submitted data, compared to 859 institutions in 2020 and 556 institutions in the inaugural edition of 2019.

ad hoc reports how they engage with their stakeholders, how they contribute to urban or regional economic development and achieve what they set out to do through their strategic plans.
