“Today, economy of any country cannot be imagined without information technologies. The information era has started long time ago, and that means that economy and IT are the inseparable ingredients of every successful society. We believe that the future of information technology in the whole region lies in the mutual interconnection, and that is the easiest way to respond to the demands of the world market. With its effort in terms of regulations and rules, the state needs to encourage the development of IT industry. On this occasion I appeal to all competent institutions in the region to give priority to domestic software and solutions, because it is the only method to build an export-oriented production and ensure economic stability in our region”, said Jevrosimović.
Considering the amount of work and the requirements from our foreign partners, Comtrade intends to enhance the software export and thus assure that the knowledge becomes a base for long-term and sustainable development of the local economy. Hereof, one of the company’s priorities is investing in young IT experts and their training for work in the most demanding international markets.
