Covering the years 2026–2027, the Roadmap includes support for establishing connections between Azerbaijani and Serbian SMEs, SME-related events, exchange of information and best practices on effective support mechanisms and business opportunities for SMEs, the development of cooperation between SME-related institutions, mutual sharing of available information, support for participation in events organized by both sides, and other areas of collaboration.
At the Intergovernmental Commission meeting and the Azerbaijan–Serbia Business Forum, Orkhan Mammadov, Chairman of the Board of KOBİA, emphasized the importance of strengthening cooperation in SME development. He noted that the exchange of experience on the SME House model and Serbia’s joining of the Baku Climate Declaration, promoted at KOBİA’s initiative, would contribute significantly to bilateral cooperation.
The Chairman also provided information on the Agency’s activities and the support and services provided to SMEs.
