The funds are intended for economic entities operating in the territory of the Republic of Serbia, with a clear development intention to further strengthen production capacities in areas outside the largest urban centers, as well as to ensure more even regional development. In this context, the Program is aimed at entities based outside the city municipalities of the territory of the City of Belgrade and the territory of the City of Novi Sad.
