Within the Aftercare Programme 2017, representatives of the Foreign Investment promotion Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FIPA), the Municipality of Centar and Sarajevo Canton visited on 20 November 2017 the company Walter Ltd Sarajevo, which operates in the information technology sector. 

Walter Ltd is a Swedish investment realized in 2011, and deals with digital engineering (BIM technologies, architectural design solutions, etc.). It employs more than 80 highly educated people (innovative, energy and related developers, architects, structural, mechanical and electrical engineers, graphic designers, etc.). They are currently focusing on international market projects (mainly Western Europe).

In the near future, they plan to grow the company, increase employment and expand into new markets. The Director of the company Ladislav Krasny confirmed that BiH has high quality and qualified manpower and that it is one of the main advantages for investing in BiH.

The meeting was also focused on business conditions in BiH and it was concluded that the IT sector has great potential and positively affects unemployment in BiH, and that the State should recognize the potential and provide greater incentives for the IT industry.

The IT sector of BiH has the potential to be the leading industry of the BiH economy, and this has been recognized by many investors of BiH, which is confirmed by the fact that the number of registered companies in this sector is growing day by day.
