58% of Bulgaria’s business leaders expect economic growth in the next one year, 68% say they expect an increase in their companies’ revenues, but only 15% have plans to enter to a new market, indicate data from the 24th global survey by a leading consulting company in Southeastern Europe. The risk of pandemics and cyber threats are among the main threats, Bulgaria’s business leaders say.

“One of the most important lessons to be learnt from the pandemic is the need to look ahead and to have different scenarios in business planning,” says Albena Markova, manager at the company which conducted the survey.
