Decision brief
Download brief (PDF)mandate-neutral · ranked by overall opportunity
Best overall fit: Obalno-kraška (Opportunity 44). Runner-up: Βοιωτία (32). Contrarian pick: Βοιωτία — leads the set on Freight intensity (EU pctl 99).
#2Βοιωτία
Strengths
Freight intensity (99) · Demographic outlook (98)
Red flags
Talent & skills (EU bottom 15%)
Governance (EU bottom 15%)
Why you might not pick Obalno-kraška
Its weakest dimension is Industrial base (EU pctl 20) — Βοιωτία may suit a mandate that weights that higher.
How robust is this recommendation?
Obalno-kraška leads under all four archetype mandates — the recommendation is weight-stable.
Phase-2 diligence checklist
- Site-level grid connection capacity and power pricing (beyond country-grain energy data)
- Local incentives, tax regimes and permitting timelines
- Workforce depth for your specific roles (the talent pillar is a proxy)
- Real-estate availability, rents and land — public pan-EU data stops at the Nordics
This is a mandate-neutral read. To weight the pillars to your thesis, run these regions through the Site Screener — it ranks all 1,211 regions under your weights and exports the full PDF. First-pass macro screening, not investment advice.
