Ministry of Economy and SARIO going investor hunting to U.S.

Minister of Economy Juraj Miškov together with Róbert Šimončič, head of Slovak Investment and Trade Development Agency (SARIO), are going to visit the USA to present Slovakia as a country open to new foreign investment. “We would like to increase the share of U.S. investment in Slovakia,“ Miškov said. According to him, our advantages lie mainly in the EURO currency, single taxation system, highest GDP growth in the EU, highest labour productivity, high education level, open economy and favourable geographic position.

The Slovak delegation will complete four investment seminars for U.S. businesses: in Washington D.C., New York City, San Francisco and Chicago. “Bilateral talks with representatives of Commerce and State Departments, scientific capacities of the National Academy of Sciences, representatives of the National Economic Council, with management of the New York Stock Exchange and especially with prominent firms like IBM, Arnold and Porter, KPMG, White and Wiliams, PWC, Google, Gartner or Navigant Consulting,“ Šimončič added. According to him, the business trip costing EUR 90,000 is supported by U.S. Steel as well as American Chamber of Commerce in Slovakia.
