A government delegation led by the Vice PM responsible for economic affairs, Vladimir Pesevski is set to present Macedonia's investment opportunities before representatives of 40 companies in Stuttgart.
Pesevski said that on Tuesday, Macedonian business advantages would be presented in Dusseldorf before representatives of Japanese companies that are headquartered in the German city.
"The presentation was organised in November 2011, but now it makes more sense after Premier Nikola Gruevski had paid a visit to Japan. There is great interest and the presidents of these Japanese companies are expected to attend to be personally informed about Macedonia as an investment destination," the Vice Premier stated.
The government team led by Pesevski on Sunday and Monday was in Ulm. In addition to holding meetings with the business community, which was represented by enterprises focused on renewable energy sources and environment protection, it also visited scientific centers.
"Germany is considered the most developed country in Europe and it was interesting for us to see how a cooperation is established between the industry, science and state. Thus, we visited the science park in Ulm, where a number of companies have opened their research centers. We've discussed several models that could be applied in Macedonia. A visit was also paid to the research center for renewable energy sources and electrical mobility and an agreement was reached on establishing a cooperation," Pesevski said.
The government delegation also includes Minister for Foreign Investments Vele Samak, and director of the Agency for Foreign Investments and Export Promotion, Visar Fida
