44 Most Powerful Global Cities

This list encompasses the 44 most powerful global cities, as per the standards of The Institute for Urban Strategies at The Mori Memorial Foundation in Tokyo. Cities are assessed based on economic strength, strength of research and development (e.g. universities, think tanks, etc.), cultural engagement, livability (e.g. cost of living vs. salary), urban environment (e.g. transportation, services), and accessibility (i.e. the speed and degree of ease with which an average visitor might "understand" the functioning of the city). Cities are listed here in order of their ranking on the global power index.
