Among the main reasons that make the Czech Republic a trusted and strategic business partner in Europe are its strategic geographical location in Central Europe, its long-established industrial tradition, its reasonable production costs, its well-developed infrastructure and, of course, its skilled labour force. The Czech Republic is a highly open economy that exports about three fourth of its output, which has contributed to its overall economic prosperity and has made the country an attractive destination for foreign investments.

The Czech Republic, which joined the European Union in 2004, is increasingly recognized as an ideal location to access and better serve international customers. This may be related to a number of factors, the most notable being the Czech government´s attribution to the enhancement of the business environment and stimulation of entrepreneurship. In addition, the country´s pre-eminent natural resource, namely its intellectual capital, has proven to be able to respond quickly and effectively to the needs of knowledge-based and innovation-driven businesses.

As far as Czech companies are concerned, they have an outstanding reputation of being reliable suppliers of high quality products, technologies and services. The Czechs are also well known for their emphasis on quality, their desire to improve familiar processes and their ability to achieve maximum productivity. The Czech government is also endeavouring to support its companies by, for example, reducing unnecessary regulations and simplifying the Czech tax system.
