The mission of the Investors Assistance Department is to support the inflow of domestic and foreign investments and to support the companies present in our city. Our mission is based on three pillars that concentrate on direct support of individual business areas in our city.
The first one focuses on the development of the modern BSS within: SSC/GBS, BPO, IT and R&D. The support of the Team is based on the pre-investment, investment and post-investment phases, providing domestic and foreign investors with full support at every stage of the investment.
The second pillar is managed by the Team for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, which is in charge of development of the SME sector. It includes foreign expansion by means of numerous training courses, workshops and events.
