Relocate Global Mobility App

This month we bring you news and expert comment that highlights the extraordinary ups and downs of the global economy but identifies some of the opportunities (especially in the energy industry) now to be had in such diverse locations as Greece, Iran and Mexico.

We also examine the benefits of an international education and introduce our forthcoming Guide to International Education & Schools. Don’t miss out on your chance to be included in it.

Our newly launched Relocate Global App is available by searching for "Relocate Global" at the Apple iTunesApp Store or the Google Play Shop now.  Or, if you're a Relocate subscriber, you can get the latest content by logging into the App using your subscriber email address and the password “relocate”.

You can download our Summer 2015 issue now, and our Europe digital supplement will be available in early August. Keep checking our website for more news.

Finally, we look forward to seeing you in London at the Relocate Global Immigration Breakfast. We have changed the date to avoid the planned underground strike, so check the details below and book now!
