Amsterdam has top institutes such as the hospitals of the Amsterdam UMC, OLVG and the NKI/Anthoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital. In addition, Amsterdam has an excellent starting position in the fields of Data Science and AI with the research and education from CWI, UvA, HvA and VU.

Besides, Amsterdam has a strong business climate for international companies due to good international accessibility, availability of talent, high internet speed, focus on start-ups and a good living environment.
