Invest in Serbia
Access to talent, favorable tax conditions and macroeconomic stability make Serbia the top regional choice for conducting business.
Serbia is Southeast Europe’s leader in investments, with more than 31 billion euros of foreign direct investment since 2007. In the last few years, it has been gaining recognition as a hub for future technologies, with human capital as one of its biggest advantages: Serbia’s innovation ecosystem is home to a large number of talents in engineering and technical sciences.
Foreign Direct Investment
For the fourth year in a row, the 2020 IBM Global Location Trends report has recognized Serbia as a world leader in the number of new jobs relative to population. Microsoft, Bosch, Siemens, and Schneider Electric are just some of many companies that have chosen to invest in Serbia.
Innovation
Apart from access to talent, Serbia has one of the most competitive corporate tax systems in Europe aimed at attracting investment in the IT and innovation sector, increasing investment in research and development, and providing overall support in the development of the country’s innovation economy.
Digital Economy
Serbia puts tremendous efforts into creating a favourable environment for innovative business opportunities through support, tax relief and mentoring startups. We are committed to and quite keen on following the best examples and creating conditions in order for Serbian startup ecosystem to reach greater heights in the coming years.
Investment Environment
Serbia’s economic stability is reflected in the lowest pandemic-related GDP drop of merely 0.9%. IMF projects real GDP growth to reach 5 percent in 2021. Serbia is characterized by an overall macroeconomic stability – low inflation rates, low budget deficit, and stable public debt.
