That approach means a place with 11,467 active companies can be compared fairly against authorities of very different sizes, because the score reflects how active local companies are rather than how large the local economy is.","The UK as a whole scores 1,000, so Warwick's composite of 1,041 sits meaningfully above that benchmark. The likely range of 1,025 to 1,057 shows how much the score could shift with a slightly different mix of companies; a score is only published when that range is narrow enough to rely on, and Warwick's is.",{"innovation":91,"scaling":92,"investment":93,"esg":94},"Innovation tracks patents, R&D grant value, academic spinout status, innovative sector tags and IS-8 sector presence across a place's companies. Warwick scores 1,071 on this pillar, 71 points above the UK benchmark, ranking 25th of 361 authorities and placing it in the top 10% nationally. It is the authority's strongest pillar and a clear area of distinction within both the county and the region.","The Scaling pillar measures scaleup status, headcount growth and accelerator attendance. Warwick scores 1,023 here, 23 points above the UK, ranking 66th of 360 authorities and falling within the top 20% nationally. Companies in the district are adding staff at a rate that outpaces the UK average, though the margin is more modest than on Innovation.","Investment covers equity raising activity: whether companies have raised equity in the last five years, the total amount raised, and whether a first-ever equity deal was completed in that period. Warwick's score of 1,030 sits 30 points above the UK benchmark, ranking 38th of 360 authorities. That places it in the top 20% nationally and indicates a relatively active equity environment among its companies.","The ESG pillar captures clean energy activity, other green activity, environmental accolades, social and governance signals, and not-for-profit proxy status. Warwick scores 1,043, which is 43 points above the UK benchmark and ranks 105th of 361 authorities. While this is above the UK average and outperforms roughly 71% of authorities, it is the district's relatively weakest pillar compared with its other three.","The chart below compares Warwick's composite score against its Warwickshire neighbours, where it ranks 1st of 5 authorities with a score 42 points above the county average.",[97,100,103,106,109,112],{"question":98,"answer":99},"What is Warwick's score in the UK Local Growth Index?","Warwick has a composite score of 1,041, which is 41 points above the UK benchmark of 1,000.
