The Acting Director of the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FIPA) Marko Kubatlija had a meeting with Elena Foti, Director of the Department for International Cooperation at the Chamber of Industry and Commerce of Athens.

Considering the good political relations between the two countries, but the symbolic economic exchange and the low inflow of Greek investments in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mr Kubatlija initiated the organization of promotional business events focused on targeted sectors and companies aiming at economic progress of the country and creation of new jobs for the citizens of BiH.

Mrs Foti pointed out that there is an interest of Greek investors in the energy sector, metal processing, wood sector and the IT sector of BiH, and she supports the idea of the need to connect and more intensively promote investment potentials, adding that the more intensive investments of Greek companies are in Serbia, Bulgaria and Albania,

The Athens Chamber of Commerce currently has around 100,000 active members.

Example of the company Alpro a.d. Vlasenica, which is a member of the Alumil group, is a good example of how much deeper cooperation can be achieved than just trade between countries.
