Evidence snapshot for Belgrade
Belgrade has established itself as a hub for innovation and technology through the Science Technology Park Belgrade, which has supported over 240 tech companies employing 2,800+ people and exporting to 60+ countries since 2015, with its model subsequently replicated in other Serbian cities. The city is also advancing urban sustainability through BELLAB, the Western Balkans' first Urban Living Lab, which brings together 60 participants from 35 institutions to co-design climate-resilient urban projects. Additionally, Belgrade's municipal government has implemented a 40% electoral gender quota as part of national electoral reform, contributing to women's representation in the National Assembly reaching 38% by July 2025, though still below the legal target.
