The Ambassador of Serbia to Switzerland, Goran Bradić, and the President of the association "economiesuisse", Christoph Mäder, which gathers around 100,000 Swiss companies and employs close to two million people, discussed the possibilities for further improvement of economic cooperation - especially in the field of biotechnology, the field of information and communication technologies, energy transition and ecology.

Last year, the exchange of goods between Serbia and Switzerland increased by more than 30% compared to 2021, reaching the amount of 802 million CHF, while an even better balance was achieved in the field of exchange of services, the value of which was almost 1.2 billion CHF. Both sides expressed satisfaction with the fact that the tendency of constant growth in the scope of economic cooperation in the last four years has continued, especially in the field of services, despite the difficult challenges and problems caused by the Coronavirus pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine.

Ambassador Bradić and First Secretary Bojan Stojanović presented some of the projects that are planned in Serbia or whose implementation has already been started - such as the Bio4 campus in Belgrade, the further construction of railway and road infrastructure, projects in the field of the energy transition, as well as renewable energy sources. Alexander Keberle, a member of the Executive Board of the "economiesuisse", who is the Head of the sector for ecology, energy, and infrastructure, as well as the Head of the department for Serbia, Catia Capaul, took part in the conversation.
