Potential AcquisitionUnite's potential acquisition of Empiric would increase exposure to international and postgraduate students and drive efficiency gains and better access to capital.
Strategic PartnershipsUnite Group's partnerships with universities are seen as a competitive advantage, providing a steady stream of student tenants.
