Win business through EuropeAid funding to Macedonia in a range of sectors. Meet decision makers from the EU Delegation and the Macedonian Government.
Thanks to FCO funding, we are able to offer a subsidy of £350 towards the expenses of each member of this mission.
As a candidate country for accession to the European Union, Macedonia (properly the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia) receives European funding under the Instrument for pre-Accession Assistance (IPA). For the period 2011-13, some €305 million will be spent on the following priority areas:
- Economic and social development
- Improved good governance and reduced corruption
- Non-discrimination and respect for human rights
To achieve these priorities, the Commission will focus its assistance primarily on:
• public administration • justice • home affairs and fundamental rights • private sector development • agriculture and rural development • transport • the environment and climate change
The British Embassy in Skopje has obtained FCO funding to organise a high-level business seminar on opportunities under the IPA programme, and has asked British Expertise to organise both the seminar and a group of up to 15 companies to visit Skopje.
Who should participate: UK-based companies experienced in delivering development solutions in the areas noted above. Previous experience of working for EuropeAid would be desirable, but not essential.
