The annual
competition organized by the Financial Times’ FDI
magazine (Foreign Direct Investments), declared Thessaloniki, northern
Greece, to be the best European city of the future for 2014 in terms of human
resources and lifestyle.
About 470
locations including 46 medium-sized cities participated in the competition
“European Cities of the Future 2014,” the results of which were announced on
February 15.
The Greek
city Thessaloniki became the “Best Mid-Sized city for human capital and
lifestyle” ranking first among 46 other medium-sized towns. The criteria for
this category included the labor of the city, the level of education, the
number of universities, the students, the quality of life as well as the number
of doctors in the city. The FDI magazine introduced the parameter of both the
city’s and the wider region’s population to the competition.
This is an
important distinction with international scope for the city of Thessaloniki.
“This is further confirmation of the extroversion in which the municipalities
and the city’s businesses invest. It is a confirmation of the level of the
city’s universities and private schools,” noted the Deputy Mayor of Finance and
Entrepreneurship of Thessaloniki, Chasdai Capon.
Criteria
sorted into broader categories are taken into consideration at the FDI’s
competition for European cities. Some of these categories are the dynamics of
the city’s economy, the workplaces, the human resources, the municipality’s
friendliness to the businesses as well as the strategic promotion of foreign
direct investments.
