He also presented plans for the upcoming period, including the conducting of a new market gap analysis for the 2027-2031 period, establishing of a pre-IPO fund, for which HBOR secured EUR 30 million of its own funds, as well as establishing of a special company to manage HBOR’s equity investments.

Our goal is to identify areas where market gaps still exist and to develop instruments that will attract additional private and institutional capital. We believe that public-private partnerships can deliver the greatest development impact for the Croatian economy,” emphasized the President of the Management Board of HBOR.
