3 Summary Summary 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 capable of competing with the most successful European cities. This resume clearly shows the many strengths and large potential of the Greater Copenhagen region. Expanding region Greater Copenhagen is a region that matters. More and more people are flocking to settle and the population is expected to increase approximately 7 pct. by 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.

Compared to other Northern European international airports, Copenhagen Airport has more passengers and a larger network of international destinations.
