After all, the continent is home to the renowned tech hubs of Berlin, Barcelona, and Paris, and in the UK, London is a global hub with long-term excellence in the financial services sector.<\/p>\n<p>But these are major cities. Full of opportunity, culture, and ambition, they can also be exhausting, not to mention expensive, places to live and work.<\/p>\n<p>This is why so many tech professionals are now looking to leave the big super-urban tech hubs for smaller, more up and coming tech cities that offer the perfect mix of progression and personal balance. Below, we\u2019re taking a look at three places to explore.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nicosia_Cyprus\"><\/span>Nicosia, Cyprus<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"inarticle-wrapper channel-cta\">\n<div class=\"ica-text\">\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Join_TNW_in_Valencia\"><\/span>Join TNW in Valencia!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The heart of tech is coming to the heart of the Mediterranean<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>You\u2019ll know Cyprus for a lot of different things: sun and sea, of course, but have you considered silicon? It turns out that, since 2015, the Municipality of Nicosia has aimed to transform the city center into a cutting-edge district of knowledge, research, and innovation.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, various projects such as the Creative Industry Quarter and CYENS \u2013 an ICT (Information and Communications <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Technology<\/a>) Centre of Excellence in Research and Innovation have thrived. Now companies including Amdocs, Wargaming, 3XC, Bolt, Thomson Reuters, Etoro, and Melsoft <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Game<\/a>s all have a presence there.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not really surprising that tech workers are flocking to Nicosia and Cyprus in droves. According to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.schengenvisainfo.com\/news\/cyprus-received-119-more-immigrants-during-january-april-2022-compared-to-same-period-of-2021\/\">reports<\/a>, Cyprus received 119% more immigrants from January-April 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The island has one of the warmest climates (and warmest winters in the EU), with the average daily annual temperature on the coast at around 24 degrees. Plus, the warm season lasts about eight months.<\/p>\n<p>Mobile internet quality is high and the island has established a digital nomad visa scheme too, allowing nationals from non-EU and non-EEA countries to temporarily live and work in Cyprus.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tallinn_Estonia\"><\/span>Tallinn, Estonia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Home to one of the world\u2019s highest startup per capita rates, Tallinn has fast established itself as a tech hub to watch and is home to powerhouses such as Skype as well as newer innovations like Pipedrive, Transferwise, and Bolt. The Estonian capital has benefited from attractive tax breaks and education initiatives, and is now home to over 1,000 startups with many more eyeing up the Eastern European city due to its relaxed <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roach to work\/life balance.<\/p>\n<p>Hybrid and flexible working is standard for all employees here, while Tallinn\u2019s compact size reduces commuting time. Its low cost of living makes for a high level of enjoyment. The city is well connected to global tech hubs too, making it a viable option for large tech companies.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Amsterdam_The_Netherlands\"><\/span>Amsterdam, The Netherlands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Dutch capital was recently ranked the fourth best European \u201ctech city of the future\u201d and continues to be attractive to tech startups hoping to take advantage of its close proximity to London, global infrastructure, and high talent pool.<\/p>\n<p>It is home to groundbreaking AI platforms thanks to its \u201cliving lab\u201d status as well as dedicated hubs such as Amsterdam <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/sciencee\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"5\" title=\"Science\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Science<\/a> Park and Startup Village. The fact that 90% of the population speaks English, while the city is easily accessible from London, Paris, the U.S. and Eastern Europe makes it even more attractive.<\/p>\n<p>However, it\u2019s Amsterdam\u2019s small population, thriving nightlife, and cultural scene that mark it out as a city to watch.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to adopt a higher level of work\/life balance without compromising on opportunity, check out The House of Talent Job Board to find companies hiring across these cities.
