The involvement of the business community in the process of creating regulations and public policies makes Montenegro an attractive investment destination, especially for investors coming from the United States of America and other developed markets of Western Europe, as stated by the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham).
The Minister of Tourism, Ecology, Sustainable Development, and the Development of the North, Vladimir Martinović, met with the President of the AmCham Board of Directors, Svetlana Vuksanović, whom he briefed on the ministry’s previous work, future plans, and challenges faced in their work.
Vuksanović emphasized the importance of dialogue between decision-makers and investors for improving the business environment in Montenegro, based on the rule of law and equal opportunities. AmCham, together with its members, can offer expertise to the public administration in many areas relevant to business.
Martinović stressed the importance of closing Chapter 27 and the development of the north and tourism in Montenegro. He invited American companies to invest in Montenegro.
Special attention during the meeting was dedicated to the areas of tourism and environmental protection. Martinović mentioned the need to establish cooperation with prominent American educational institutions for training tourism workers, as well as to intensify the promotion of the tourism offer.
“The importance of American investments in environmental protection was emphasized, along with the need to establish public-private partnerships and exchange experiences. The involvement of the business community in the process of creating regulations and public policies makes Montenegro an attractive investment destination, especially for those investors coming from the United States of America and other developed markets of Western Europe,” stated AmCham.
They bring not only the necessary capital but also a system of values of socially responsible business, based on caring for society and the environment in which they operate.
