Who We Are

Partnership for Competitive Region

Partnership for Competitive Region (CORE Partnership) – is committed to improving business environment, promoting green and socially responsible doing business through connecting actors and sharing knowledge across the region.

11 Years of Experience in Building a Favorable Business Environment

For the past 11 years, we have been actively working towards bringing changes in the region’s economy. However, complicated administrative procedures, inadequate legislation and the lack of strategic documents have made it challenging to connect the economy with public institutions. This problem is shared by all the economies of the Western Balkans and beyond, which is why we believe that having a partnership is key to implementing these changes.

Solving the Shared Problems of the Western Balkans and Beyond

Through the CORE Partnership, we have been able to cooperate with partners from the region to find solutions and map good practices. This led us to organize the CORE Days conference, where we share what we have learned, present our successes, and showcase new ideas for the future.

We invite you to join us in our mission to establish a favourable business environment in the Western Balkans region. Together, we can make a difference and inspire change.
