"China is now Serbia’s leading foreign investor, with over 7 billion euros in foreign direct investment, our second-largest foreign trade partner, the top country we import from, and the third largest export destination for Serbian products globally," said Marko Čadež, President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Serbia, at the opening of the Economic and Trade Conference and business meetings between Serbian companies and representatives from China’s Jiangsu province, which gathered nearly 400 participants.He emphasized that the Free Trade Agreement with China has opened a new chapter in bilateral cooperation, enabling the realization of joint projects and noted that Serbia–China relations have gained significant momentum in recent years.

"Jiangsu stands out not only because of its high GDP and vast market of 85 million consumers, but also for its prominent position on the global innovation and technology map," Čadež stated. He stressed that Serbia aims to establish an "innovation bridge"&mdash;a digital bridge&mdash;with Jiangsu by connecting domestic technology parks, innovation centers, and top scientific institutions with those in this Chinese province."We have already begun concrete discussions with representatives of the Suzhou Industrial Park, one of the most successful industrial parks in China and a symbol of cooperation between China and foreign investors in the field of high technologies. We are considering opening their office on the premises of the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and incorporating them into our development project, 'ScaleUp Factory.' We are actively working on this," Čadež said.He underlined that Serbia is interested in attracting more Chinese high-tech companies, and that Jiangsu already sees Serbia as a potential European hub. More than half of the companies in the Jiangsu delegation expressed interest in production and joint projects with Serbian firms."In partnership with Chinese companies, we can best leverage our resources and integrate into global innovation flows," Čadež noted, adding that the strong presence of Chinese companies reflects the positive experience of those already operating in Serbia.Čadež also emphasized Serbia’s upcoming participation in the Supply Chain Expo in Beijing this July, where 11 Serbian companies from the digital technology, food, and logistics sectors will be showcased."Producers from the confectionery industry, the ICT and embedded systems sector, as well as logistics companies, will participate in the fair," said the President of the Chamber, recalling that during the March visit of the China Chamber of Commerce delegation, an invitation was extended to the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) to open its representative office in Belgrade.
"Such a step would crown our partnership and mark an important milestone toward a more substantial and dynamic economic cooperation between our two countries," Čadež concluded.<div class="article-photo"><img src="https://en-api.pks.rs/storage/assets/Tan2025-06-2517110623_5_960x640.jpg" id="image-tag-1750925311388" data-image-alignment="article-photo" data-image-size-id="original" data-asset-id="1761"></div> Adrijana Mesarović, Deputy Prime Minister of Serbia and Minister of Economy, stated that the relationship between Serbia and China transcends traditional economic frameworks.

She pointed out that Jiangsu leads in the fields of electronic equipment, green energy, and biotechnology. She added that Serbian exports to China have tripled in the past three years, and that the country is experiencing growth in investments in green and digital transition. "Serbia is a stable and attractive partner, with free trade agreements covering 2.5 billion people," Mesarović emphasized, announcing the opening of the first "Serbian House" in the Chinese city of Xiamen, as well as plans to open a "Jiangsu House" in Serbia.<div class="article-photo"><img src="https://en-api.pks.rs/storage/assets/Tan2025-06-2517110292_0_960x640.jpg" id="image-tag-1750925325425" data-image-alignment="article-photo" data-image-size-id="original" data-asset-id="1760"></div> Xin Changxing, Secretary of the Jiangsu Provincial Committee, said that China and Serbia are “ironclad friends” and that the goal of the forum is to strengthen trade and technological cooperation.

He underlined that Serbia is the only EU candidate country with an investment-grade credit rating and is a regional leader in attracting foreign direct investment.
Serbia's Ambassador to Japan, Aleksandra Kovač, stressed Serbia’s determination to strengthen quality partnerships and develop sustainable ties with Japan in various fields. “This commitment is mutual, as we heard directly from Japanese companies. Today we are stepping closer to what Japan calls ‘co-creation for the future,’” she stated.

Serbia and Japan – Partners for the Future, Economic Cooperation Deepens

A Serbian business delegation visited Egypt as part of the official visit of Serbian Prime Minister Đuro Macut. A business forum bringing together Serbian and Egyptian companies was held, alongside approximately 30 bilateral meetings. The forum was organized in cooperation between the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Serbia and the Federation of Egyptian Chambers of Commerce. This was the second such event held in Cairo within the past year, confirming the growing intensity and significance of economic cooperation between the two countries.

<div class="article-photo"><img src="https://en-api.pks.rs/storage/assets/IMG_8588_960x720.jpg" id="image-tag-1750241949862" data-image-alignment="article-photo" data-image-size-id="original" data-asset-id="1751"></div>

The business forum was attended by the Prime Ministers of Serbia and Egypt, Dr. Đuro Macut and Dr. Mostafa Madbouly, who agreed that such events are a key instrument not only for strengthening interstate relations but also for deepening concrete economic ties and business cooperation.
The delegation of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Serbia was led by Đorđe Živanović, Advisor to the President of the Chamber, who addressed participants by highlighting the strategic importance of the Free Trade Agreement set to come into force soon. He emphasized that on the very day of its entry into force, nearly 50 percent of agricultural and 30 percent of industrial products from Serbia will be eligible for export to Egypt duty-free. Over the next decade, this liberalization is expected to expand to cover 87 percent of agri-food products and 90 percent of industrial products. On the other hand, the agreement will also enable duty-free imports of key raw materials and semi-finished goods from Egypt, such as urea, propane, cotton, silk, and metallurgical products.
As highlighted during the event, Egypt, being the second-largest economy in Africa with a population of 111 million and a strategic geographic position, represents a crucial partner for Serbia in accessing African and Middle Eastern markets. Conversely, Serbia can serve as a gateway for Egyptian companies to the European market.
While in Cairo, the Serbian Chamber delegation also met with representatives of Egypt’s National Food Safety Authority (NFSA), marking the beginning of institutional cooperation aimed at facilitating the export of Serbian food and dietary products to the Egyptian market. The meeting particularly emphasized the need to remove administrative barriers and recognize the FCS certificate for Serbian producers, which would further boost trade in the context of future liberalization. Additionally, a meeting was held with representatives of the Egyptian General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI).
At the end of the visit, the Serbian Ambassador to Egypt, Mr. Miroslav Šestović, hosted a formal reception at his residence in honor of the Serbian Prime Minister, the business delegation, and Egyptian partners.<div class="article-photo"><img src="https://en-api.pks.rs/storage/assets/IMG_8589_960x1028.jpg" id="image-tag-1750242008597" data-image-alignment="article-photo" data-image-size-id="original" data-asset-id="1752"></div>

A kick-off meeting held in Naples officially marked the launch of a three-year INTERREG project titled “Promoting the Use of Renewable Hydrogen for a Sustainable and Greener Europe – PRHyUS”.
The PRHyUS project aims to promote the use of renewable hydrogen, thereby accelerating the energy transition, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and supporting the goals of the European Green Deal. The Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Serbia (CCIS) is participating in the project as part of an international consortium that includes partners from Italy, Germany, Poland, France, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, and Serbia.
According to Dušan Stokić, Head of the Environmental Protection Unit at CCIS and one of the project experts, the initiative focuses on increasing the demand for renewable hydrogen, fostering the development and deployment of hydrogen technologies in high-emission sectors, such as industry, mobility, and household heating. At the same time, the project plans to strengthen cooperation among public authorities, local administrations, industry stakeholders, and the academic and scientific communities to ensure the long-term and sustainable use of these technologies.
The project also includes the development of policy guidelines for decision-makers and businesses, the creation of digital tools to assess the impact of hydrogen use, and contributions to policy-making for integrating hydrogen into regional energy strategies. Additionally, PRHyUS aims to enhance transnational cooperation and facilitate the exchange of best practices among partners.
Ultimately, the PRHyUS project seeks to contribute to energy security, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, stimulate investment in hydrogen technologies, and strengthen regional economies across Europe, aligning with the vision of a climate-neutral continent.
