That is where and when companies and investors from East Europe and the Balkans would have the opportunity to exchange ideas and much more. On this traditionally

international exhibition location will be held the first International entrepreneurship & franchising expo. Thousands of visitors from Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Russia, Serbia, Macedonia, Croatia, Greece and Azerbaijan who are looking for an interesting franchise concept and license are expected.

Some of the most important reasons for us to get together:

Bulgaria has a constantly growing economy and a very solid banking system.

Bulgaria is one of the newest members of the EU. The country is an important crossroad    between Europe and Asia.

Bulgaria will be the host of the first International franchising expo for Romania,      Macedonia and Serbia.

Bulgaria has the lowest operational and tax rates in the EU and a flat corporate income tax           rate of 10%.

The average salary in Bulgaria is about 300 €.

More than 80% of the young people are highly educated, have mastered at least one          foreign language and eager to follow their dreams as entrepreneurs.

Recent research data shows that much more people from all sectors are looking for a         working and profitable franchising concept.
