Cities that attract talent

The GTCI also recognizes the talent cities, including some in Europe and North America, with Washington, DC, and Zurich heading the list.

The concept of the city is changing, from a commercial and service center to the capital of technological and business innovation, and it is becoming increasingly important in the global economy. The world’s greatest cities are competing with each other for international investment and talent. Several cities in India, Vietnam, and Chinese metropolises are in an excellent future position, as well as London, Paris, Amsterdam, and some in North America.

Young talent values living and working in a secure and well-connected place, where they have a first line job to go to by bike, a good team, and a place to enjoy.

The more talent in a city, the more it attracts and drives the development of innovative businesses, education, technology, and services to match the new demands. Retaining and attracting talent has an impact on the growth and wealth of the city and the country that invests in it. And it can all start with the great work of a company.
