Open Regional Fund for SEE Europe – Project Biodiversity (ORF BD) is organizing a panel discussion about green entrepreneurship – How to become a (green) millionaire? The panel will take place in Belgrade on November 15, as part of the 8th Green Fest.

Green start-ups and entrepreneurship have become an increasingly interesting topic both in the world and Serbia. Ecosystem services generate more and more interest as potentially viable business ideas. According to organizers,  Open Regional Fund for SEE – Biodiversity, this panel will be a good opportunity to find out more about the possibilities ecosystem services provide, the way to design them and then to implement interesting initiatives at the same time respecting and taking care about the environment.

The panel will examine the topics of green entrepreneurship, new strategic directions and innovations in today’s competitive environment. The environment is ready to be our loyal business partner if we are ready to do business in a responsible and sustainable way and if we return the part of what we take from nature, reads the ORF-BD invitation.
