Best known as a port, Klaipėda is now on the radar of key site selection analysts
Klaipėda, the region’s small city pick
This year, for the first time, the Emerging Europe panel of experts was also asked to select from 78 emerging cities that have a population of between 100,000 and 200,000. This additional group was added as a result of growing interest in setting up new operations in these so-called tier-three cities.
Here, another Lithuanian city, Klaipėda, took top spot, followed by Plzeň in Czechia and Burgas in Bulgaria.
“We were keen to include a ranking for smaller cities this year because our discussions with site selection experts convinced us that investors are increasingly interested in their enormous potential,” adds Turp-Balazs.
“Again, there’s huge variety across the categories,” he adds, “such as Batumi in Georgia winning the Talent category, and Rzeszów in Poland taking first place for Business Climate. These cities are already punching well above their weight and are ready to take the next step.”
“Companies looking to relocate in this region really are spoilt for choice.”
