The 2021 edition, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, highlights how the crisis has reshaped talent competitiveness, emphasizing the importance of digital literacy, adoption of online tools, and innovative talent attraction strategies. Switzerland leads the rankings for the eighth time, followed by Singapore and the United States, with Europe dominating the top positions. The index reveals a widening gap between the most competitive countries and others, underscoring the critical role of education, talent growth, and favorable recovery policies.\n\nThe GTCI also ranks cities, noting that those excelling in AI, fintech, healthtech, and medtech\u2014such as San Francisco, Boston, Singapore, and European cities like Geneva and Dublin\u2014are top talent hubs. Quality of life remains a significant factor in attraction, benefiting medium-sized cities. Spain ranks 29th overall, with Barcelona, Madrid, Bilbao, and Zaragoza featuring among top cities. Spain must improve in attracting foreign talent and enhancing professional and technical skills to close the gap with leading European nations. Experts suggest Spain focus on university programs aligned with future job demands, invest in R&D, and build ecosystems connecting academia, industry, and entrepreneurship, especially in high technology and biotechnology sectors.","_oaas_audio_url":"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/summary-13259-1764627627.mp3"},"categories":[193],"class_list":["post-13259","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-social-transformation"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Countries doing best at attracting talent: 2021<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Attracting talent is key to increasing the capacity for innovation and improving the competitiveness of economies.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/news\/which-countries-do-it-best-to-attract-talent-2021-ranking\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Which countries do it best to attract talent? 2021 ranking\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Attracting talent is key to increasing the capacity for innovation and improving the competitiveness of economies.
