A new global report has ranked a Scottish city as the 61st best city on the planet.
City leaders have welcomed a new global report which has ranked Glasgow as the 61st best city on the planet.
It also praised Glasgow’s music scene and nightlife, which it lists as the world’s 42nd best, as well as its cultural offering, ranked as 72. It adds: “People not already here are certainly noticing.”Lauded as the world's most thorough city ranking, the annual World’s Best Cities Report is based on methodology that analyses key statistics, user-generated reviews, social media and online activity.
Cllr Aitken said: “In a list dominated by global capitals and long-established A-list urban centres, this is an incredible endorsement for Glasgow. Resonance prides itself on providing investors and visitors with objective rankings which go far beyond the usual surveys on cities. “When we consider the rapid growth of innovation, tech and education here, it’s perhaps not a surprise to locals, but I’m sure our high ranking will catch the attention of new international investors who continue to see the potential in Glasgow.”
“We are proud of the reputation Glasgow has built, with Universities like ours working closely with the City Government, businesses, stakeholders and most importantly our local communities, to drive inclusive growth in key sectors like life sciences, quantum technologies, MedTech and through cultural and creative economies.”
“The impact this has had on the city is plain to see as Glasgow continues to attract students and creatives from around the world, informing the future pathway to building a 21st century city centre of genuine substance.”The Top 10 cities were London, Paris, New York, Tokyo, Singapore, Dubai, San Francisco, Barcelona, Amsterdam and Seoul.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
