Show Notes

We look at how the European country is trying to lure talent back home.

It is specifically targeting people from science, technology, engineering and innovation sectors, using tax breaks and a campaign to remind people about the benefits of returning.

A number of countries are bringing in similar initiatives, so is it forward thinking? Or will it create a two-tier system?
