Decision brief
Download brief (PDF)mandate-neutral · ranked by overall opportunity
Best overall fit: Bas-Rhin (Opportunity 71). Runner-up: Jihomoravský kraj (64). Contrarian pick: Jihomoravský kraj — leads the set on Labour market (EU pctl 79).
Why you might not pick Bas-Rhin
Its weakest dimension is Governance (EU pctl 38) — Jihomoravský kraj may suit a mandate that weights that higher.
How robust is this recommendation?
The leader depends on the mandate: Logistics → Bas-Rhin · Manufacturing → Jihomoravský kraj · Office → Bas-Rhin · Residential → Bas-Rhin.
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.
