I understand Berlin being a logical choice for a relocation but I haven't heard much about Amsterdam and Barcelona in terms of the tech and start up environment. Are they on par with Berlin or are they "up and comers"?

I am also curios, are there practical reasons outside of the start up tech environment that are making you consider Barcelona and Amsterdam.

Wages for tech people in Barcelona at least are dramatically worse than in places like London.

Amsterdam looks more attractive (much better levels of English as well), but the Netherlands is one of the countries most likely to go through an EU referendum within the next 18 months as well.

Are you just speculating regarding a Dutch referendum? Was this gaining momentum prior to the Brexit vote? This is the first I've heard of it.
