In the heart of Europe

There are many good reasons why Luxembourg is the ideal location to establish a European headquarter. Located in the heart of Europe bordering Germany, France and Belgium, Luxembourg fosters an environment of openness, creativity, innovation and cutting-edge technologies. It is the perfect place to run a European business from just one location, with the appropriate international business culture and broad language skills needed.

Luxembourg relies on a highly performant IT infrastructure to fuel a data driven, circular and sustainable economy. The government focuses on attracting top talent and supporting companies to bring the next generation products to market. Luxembourg is ranked 3(rd) worldwide in the Open Market Index (behind Singapore and Hong Kong) and 1(st) in a US Study of best countries open for business.

Multi-national and multicultural environment

Luxembourg is also a great place to live, offering an outstanding quality of life with a truly multi-national and multicultural environment made up of more than 170 nationalities speaking no less than 83 different languages.

Smart Mobility is a key focus area and the country is the ideal setting for adjusting products and services to the expectations of the European market. Luxembourg offers dedicated infrastructures for development, testing and validation of forward-looking mobility solutions, including a digital cross-border test bed in collaboration with France and Germany.

Interested parties who cannot make the event can contact Luxembourg experts at the Luxembourg Trade and Investment Office in San Francisco who would be delighted to answer any questions.
