Within an Operational Programme "Innovative Economy" EUR 105 million were booked for crucial initiatives. At the same time in Regional Operational Programme funds on building new and development of those existing parks and incubators were booked. For each city, if it invest in business incubator, it will get a chance of gaining domestic and foreign investors who will reassert potential of the region and cause an economic boost.
