Why is the presence of businesses from Ruse and the region essential?

In the context of the dynamically changing economic environment, the forum offers a platform for the exchange of expertise on topics such as digitalization, energy efficiency and cross-border cooperation - factors that directly determine the competitiveness of Ruse companies.
