Last year in October the first organised gathering of Croatians from the Homeland and the Diaspora met for a business conference in Zagreb, later this year a second meeting will be held…
Over 50 participants from Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Chile, Ecuador, Finland, France, Canada, Hungary, Macedonia, Germany, Paraguay, Peru, Poland, USA, Switzerland and Venezuela took part in MEETING G2.1 the first ever conference organised by Croatian returnees for Croatian returnees.
The next conference – MEETING G2.2 – will be held this fall from 10 – 12 October 2016 again at the FORUM Zagreb Congress Center.
“As a result of many queries which we received from MEETING G2.1 Conference participants as well as from those who were unable to attend it, we decided to form a business advisory organization whose goal would be to connect Croatians from the diaspora with the local business community and government institutions in order to facilitate investment. With the help of experts from different sectors, we have been analysing various options including: a foundation, investment fund, bank, association, company or simply a portal. We would very much like to have your thoughts and ideas about the way forward,” organisers say.
