About Toulouse

While foreigners typically think of Toulouse as a holiday destination rather than a place to do business, the same can’t be said of French locals. Ask a local where they’d like to move to and there’s an excellent chance they’ll say Toulouse. Over in southwestern France, the country’s fourth largest city has a lot going for it. The city has a booming economy with the largest GDP growth among large cities in France over the last decade. Much of this growth has been the emergence of classy coworking spaces, incubators, and other initiatives that have bolstered the local startup scene.

Toulouse’s economy is also strong due to being the center of the European aerospace industry. Hosting the headquarters of Airbus, ATR, the SPOT satellite system, and more brings thousands of talented professionals into the city. Having the fourth largest student population in France keeps new talent flowing through the system as well. Due to its growing reputation as France’s most dynamic city, an increasing number of French, especially those from Paris are migrating to Toulouse each year.

Nicknamed La Villa Rosa (The Pink City), Toulouse also offers a comfortable lifestyle to its inhabitants. The Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean are just an hour away. Nearby hiking and skiing opportunities await at the Pyrenees Mountains. Because of its convenient location, locals often desert the city during the weekends for a quick getaway. A comfortable climate, delicious local duck specialty dishes, abundant green space, and excellent air quality await anyone who checks out the coworking scene in Toulouse.
