Decision brief
Download brief (PDF)mandate-neutral · ranked by overall opportunity
Best overall fit: Genova (Opportunity 62). Runner-up: Var (59). Contrarian pick: Var — leads the set on Energy cost (EU pctl 88).
Why you might not pick Genova
Its weakest dimension is Labour market (EU pctl 20) — Var may suit a mandate that weights that higher.
How robust is this recommendation?
The leader depends on the mandate: Logistics → Genova · Manufacturing → Genova · Office → Var · Residential → Var.
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.
