Abstract
In this research, the sustainability strategies of the cities Amsterdam, London and Singapore are analysed and compared from an economically profitable perspective and lessons are drawn from each strategy. This is done by using the research question: What are sustainability strategies from an economically profitable perspective from the cities Amsterdam, London and Singapore and how do they compare with each other and which general lessons could be drawn from each strategy for future sustainability strategies? The chosen research method is a qualitative research in which sustainability strategies from the three concerned cities are used. The strategies are the data in this research. The strategies will be analysed based on their content, implementation, environmental benefits and economic costs and benefits. The strategies from London and Amsterdam have similar environmental benefits, while Singapore’s strategy has lower environmental benefits as well as economic benefits. Amsterdam’s strategy has the highest economic benefits as these benefits are not only beneficial for the city, but for Europe and the discussed value chains. London’s economic benefits will only be noticed on the very long term, but will be high as well. The innovativeness is going well in each strategy which will increase both the environmental and economic benefits. The lessons drawn from the strategies all regard consumer behaviour and improvements should be make on this topic.
