How many airports does each of those cities have? As a reference

From what you count as London I'd say Paris has Orly, Beauvais-Tillé,
Le Bourget Charles de Gaulle, and Châlons Vatry.
Ask EasyJet or Ryan Air and you'll get a very different answer from
that you'd get from the senior managers of a global business
But
I suggest you ask such managers what they think makes for a potential
regional[1] business base before you expect them to count Gatwick etc
in thr mix.
[1] Regional on the scale of eg Europe, Europe + Asia etc
They aren't being very rational then. The time to Gatwick from central
London is as good as that to Heathrow, especially if you don't pay the
extortionate fares on Heathrow Express.
