  •          Integrity
  •          Efficiency
  •          Innovation
  •          Professionalism

2. How do you perceive INOS Balkan d.o.o. strategy for further growth on this market?

All over the word and especially in the EU, circular economy principals are dictating future business models. New products, infrastructure, equipment and services are designed and delivered based on the principals of long lasting design, maintenance, repair, reuse and recycling.

In the near future, Serbia will have to deal with environmental protection obligations arising from chapter 27 of EU integration process and we are preparing our company for the new era. With solid financial state, modern management and robust engineering resources we are ready to apply in the Serbian recycling market all business models that we have already successfully deployed in other countries of the region.  

3. What is in your view the role of FIC and what are your expectations?

As the mission statement of FIC clearly underscores “FIC mission is: “To actively promote and develop predictable, competitive, and sustainable business environment, through open dialogue with the Authorities and other relevant stakeholders”.

Serbian market is great need for reforms and FIC could be a key stakeholder for those changes. Predictability of business environment, transparency in all public procedures and levelled playfield are the key factors for a successful transformation of Serbian economy into a modern dynamic and liberal economy.
