Nature

Croatia has one of the most stunning coastlines in Europe. Its geographical location means you can experience totally different climates, cultures and lifestyles in the space of a few hours – you could swim in the sea in the warm sunshine in one moment and hike on snow covered mountain tops on the same day



Land of Knowledge

Many Croatian innovators and scientists are known outside Croatia, such as Nikola Tesla, Slavoljub Penkala, or Franjo Hanaman. Also, a large number of lesser-known innovators receive awards and medals at various world innovation fairs each year. Every year, The Ministry of Economy, Entrepreneurship, and Crafts is investing more and more money in new patents in Croatia. One of the best examples of success in Croatia is Mate Rimac, an entrepreneur and founder of the Croatian car company Rimac Automobili.
