Top European Cities

In Europe, Moscow has achieved an impressive ranking and is the highest-ranked city in Europe. This is mainly due to specific innovations that have had a global impact, such as the Sputnik V vaccine.  

Moscow is followed by London, Berlin, and Paris, strong hubs of global innovation, which have also stepped in to create high-quality COVID-19 innovation. 

Across Europe, it is also worth noting that both Spanish entrepreneurial hubs of Barcelona and Madrid have made a sound improvement in their rankings since the last Coronavirus rankings, placed now at 10th and 18th respectively, an important milestone for Madrid – the first time the city makes it to the top 20.
