Bulgarian President Rumen Radev extended an invitation to Japanese business to invest in Bulgaria. This happened during an economic forum in Tokyo organized by the Japan External Trade Organization JETRO

At the forum, Radev who is on official visit to Japan, presented the good business opportunities that Bulgaria provides to foreign companies, reported the special envoy of the Bulgarian National Radio in Japan Mira Stefanova.

150 leading Japanese companies are taking part in the forum.
"Every Japanese investment is valuable to us, but not only because we want you to invest in Bulgaria. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is for the successful Japanese business model to come to Bulgaria, because for us Japan is the real working example of a successful economy," the president said at the forum.
JETRO President Susumu Kataoka said that he visited Bulgaria in October 2024 and more and more Japanese companies are interested in business contacts with the country.
