In four years, Telekom Serbia will become a kind of economic giant not only in Serbia but also in the region, thanks to the strategy that envisages the development of digital services, said the general director of that company, Vladimir Lucic.
He announced that Telekom Serbia will open a fund for the development of digital startup projects this year, which it will finance with at least five million euros a year.
“We are trying to motivate other companies to be part of that fund, because I think that part of the development of the startup community is not yet sufficiently systematized, and that there is great potential. What we will try to do is for Telecom not only to be the region’s telecommunications leader. It is also the main exporter of digital software in the world, and thus I think that we will increase the value of Telecom and significantly contribute to the development of that part of the economy in Serbia,” said Lucic as a guest on Pink Television.
He assessed that the novelty on the market is the determination to place the national telecommunications company where the long national companies are, and that is to be number one in telecommunications and the carrier of digital development.
“I said two years ago that we would get more multimedia users in two years than in the previous 10 years, and we have achieved that. We have more than doubled the number of fixed internet and multimedia users. We have become leaders in Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, and now we are moving towards further development,” said Lucic.
He added that based on his personal experience, he can say that Telekom Serbia will become an economic giant in the region in four years, Dnevnik reports.
