OUR CLIENTS SAID
I applied for funds allocated by the Development Agency of Serbia within the Start-up Program and, with great help and support from the employees of RDA Bačka, my funds were approved. I am very satisfied with the communication; all advice was useful. I would recommend everyone, especially young people who want to start their own business, to contact the employees of the Development Agency Bačka for support and all necessary information.
I have been an entrepreneur for 14 years, and until last year I fought all my battles alone. Since connecting with the Development Agency Bačka, I finally know I have support. Through courses, useful newsletters, and direct contacts, I gained many useful tips, new knowledge, and guidance. If everyone who supports the economy invests the same energy and enthusiasm as the RDA Bačka staff, entrepreneurship will flourish. Bravo, and please continue helping us.
I attended the Training for Beginners in Business and I am extremely satisfied. I especially like that the group is smaller, which allows us to work more easily and learn more. Overall, a great team. 🙂
I am extremely satisfied with the services of RDA Bačka. The trainings that were organized were very useful to me, and the lecturers provided concrete and realistic advice. Many of my doubts were resolved, so I decided to apply for funding from the ‘Create Life’ program.
