If your company had the opportunity to participate in Expo 2027 (either in the preparation of Expo 2027 or at the Expo 2027 event itself), how do you think you could participate?
I’m not sure about this concept and don’t think about it much. We would participate only if no financial or other support is expected from us for the project.
What improvements and programs would you suggest that you think could contribute to your business and the Serbian economy?
The SME sector is marginalized (I’m referring to truly micro and small businesses). It is necessary to create financing opportunities for projects with conditions that such financing entails. This, in turn, requires a complete change in the relationship between the banking sector and small businesses, as well as the education of officials to understand what project financing means.
