Decision brief
Download brief (PDF)mandate-neutral · ranked by overall opportunity
Best overall fit: Olomoucký kraj (Opportunity 56). Runner-up: Córdoba (49). Contrarian pick: Córdoba — leads the set on Energy cost (EU pctl 95).
#2Córdoba
Strengths
Energy cost (95) · Cost advantage (78)
Red flags
Labour market (EU bottom 15%)
Connectivity (EU bottom 15%)
Why you might not pick Olomoucký kraj
Its weakest dimension is Digital readiness (EU pctl 19) — Córdoba may suit a mandate that weights that higher.
How robust is this recommendation?
The leader depends on the mandate: Logistics → Olomoucký kraj · Manufacturing → Olomoucký kraj · Office → Córdoba · Residential → Olomoucký kraj.
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.
