Sweden• 3.8 million inhabitants• 17 universities, 190,000 students• Vision: By 2020 Greater Copenhagen is

an international hub for investments and knowledge and should be considered amongst the most successful cities in Europe.

The global competition amongst cities for attracting investment, retaining talent and fostering growth is fierce. As an international metropolis and regional hub, Greater Copenhagen is well positioned to compete.Building upon a solid base, Greater Copenhagen aims to be a top destination for investments and a leading knowledge based economy by 2020, a hub region ca-pable of competing with the most successful European cities. This resume clearly shows the many strengths and large potential of the Greater Copenhagen region.

Expanding regionGreater Copenhagen is a region that matters. More and more people are flocking to settle and the popu-lation is expected to increase approximately 7 pct. by 2025. Economically, the region’s importance is also growing. Between 2000 and 2011, the productivity of the region has increased almost 8 pct. and GDP has grown more than 13 pct. In both cases, the regions performance has outdone those of Hamburg and Ber-lin; yet remain below Stockholm and Helsinki.

World-class educationEducation is a strong hallmark of the Greater Copen-hagen region. The region has 17 top tier universitiesand colleagues, is home to some 190.000 studentsand about 10.500 PhD students. Approximately 30 pct. of the labour force in Greater Copenhagen excl. Scania has taken an undergraduate or postgraduate education.

Strong infrastructure In 2000 Denmark and Sweden were physically connect-ed with the opening of the Oresund Bridge, bringing together the Scandinavian Peninsula with Central and Western Europe. Since then, the integration between eastern Denmark and western Sweden has deepened steadily, with numbers of travellers, people relocating and commuters having increased. Since the outbreak of the financial crisis, the trend has diminished though; the numbers of commuters decreased 20 pct. between 2008 and 2012.

Main hub in ScandinaviaMainly due to Copenhagen Airport, Greater Copenha-gen is the primary hub and connecting region inNorthern Europe. Compared to other Northern Europe-an international airports, Copenhagen Airport hasmore passengers and a larger network of internation-al destinations.

Great connectivityMaintaining and expanding upon connective infra-structure is a priority in the Greater Copenhagen region. Therefore going towards 2025, a number of rail-way investments and projects designed to expand road infrastructure will ensure that the regional infrastruc-ture will continue to act as an essential basis for growth, job creation and a more integrated labour market.

Investments and innovationThe regions high productivity and solid growth, is mirrored in its popularity as a destination for foreign investments and a strong focus on innovation and technology. About 3 1/2 pct. of the GreaterCopenhagen workforce is employed in R&D and over four pct. of regional GDP is spent on furthering tech-nology.

About this publicationThis resume is a selection of key indicators, drawn from the large report available only in Danish. The full report ”Indblik i Greater Copenhagen” contains an extensive range of key figures on a wide range of top-ics, highlighting the challenges and potential of the region. The resume has been made by Copenhagen Municipality with contributions from Copenhagen Airport, Copenhagen Capacity, The Capital Region of Denmark and the Oresund Institute.

NUMBER OF WORKPLACES (1.000)

The figure shows the number of jobs that can be reached within one hour by car or public transport from the respective train stations.

Workplaces within one hour of transportAlthough intra-regional connectivity is high, in general more workplaces can be reached with one hour of car transport than with one hour of transport by public transportation. However, the difference in time savings, between driving and pub-lic transportation, depends much on the train station chosen as point of departure.

The figure shows the number of commuters crossing Oresund from both the Swedish and Danish side. That is, how many live in either the Capital Region of Denmark or Region Zealand and working in Scania – and vice versa.

Commuting across OresundIn 2000, approximately 3.300 people commuted across Oresund. By 2008 this number had increased to almost 20.000. Since 2008 however, the number has dropped and settled on approximately 16.000 in 2012. Throughout the period however, Swedish commuters have outnumbered their Danish peers significantly and in 2012 94 pct. of the commuters were from Sweden.
