The events come as a result of the request of entrepreneurs and our desire as representatives of the business environment to bring information to SMEs in advance, so that they are prepared for the next programmatic period, the involvement and activity of all stakeholders, authorities, partners institutional and private, being particularly necessary. Through my involvement in the Board of Directors of FNGCIMM, I also want to give good news to entrepreneurs and the public and social environment in Bihor: the opening of a representative office of FNGCIMM in Oradea. The decision comes as a result of the efficiency and great interest of the business environment regarding the activity of the guarantee fund, Bihor county being in 2nd place at the national level in terms of the IMM Invest program, which shows a dynamic business environment that needs support to develop even more", Florin Jianu, president of CNIPMMR.
