Black Sea Trade and Investment Promotion Programme

Supporting the Establishment of Investment and Trade Linkages Between the Black Sea Countries

Home

This site has been specifically designed to give you an overview on the Black Sea Trade and Investment Promotion Programme (BSTIP). Through this programme we aim at developing not only investment and trade linkages within the sub-region but also at promoting a "Black Sea business and networking framework", which shall provide the right forum for those who are interested in doing business in this part of world.

The Black Sea countries have all the potential for setting in motion an effective economic integration process, similarly to what has occurred to other sub-regions in the world, in which the private sector can play a pivotal role.

The geographical coverage of our programme, which includes, inter alia , three EU member states along with some EU candidate countries makes the BSTIP also an ideal bridge for supporting economic cooperation between the European Union and the countries of the sub-region in line with the requirements of the new EU European Neighborhood and Partnership Instrument Policy (ENPI).

We strongly encourage businesspeople, local business support institutions or whoever has an interest in this sub-region to join our network and to make us aware of your efforts or to promote joint initiatives towards a Black Sea business culture.
