Before we can have an efficient and competitive startup ecosystem, we have to understand the context of the society we are building it in; its ambition and know-how that is shared; and the talent that is available. 

In collaboration with USAID BEP, following Startup Common’s framework for ecosystem development, Startup Macedonia from January to April 2018 engaged in conversation with startups and support organization to identify key challenges and opportunities for an ecosystem growth. 

The results are presented in the research “Connecting the Macedonian Ecosystem, 2018”, which is available for download.
