Could you elaborate your view on the opportunities in the region and in Serbia?

Nada: Despite its relatively small size, emerging economy in Serbia is investing across a wide range of sectors, particularly infrastructure and energy.

Due to its strategic position in the Southeast Europe, Serbia as a gateway to Western Europe is connecting Western Europe and the Middle East and Trans-European transport networks are heavily influencing investment in development of modern and safe transportation infrastructure in our region and in Serbia from highways, high-speed railways to River Danube corridor. Modern infrastructure depends on reliable critical next-generation wireless connectivity that is the prerequisite for an efficient environmentally friendly and safe transport system.

In energy sector, Serbia and the region are moving towards green energy under the Energy Community Treaty and the Paris Agreement. The introduction of next-generation wireless networks is offering new opportunities to speed up the energy transition and reach the goals of the Paris Agreement. It can be thought of as a catalyst to enabling high-speed and reliable communication for power grids and operational models.
