Minister of Science, Technological Development and Innovation Jelena Begović said tonight that EXPO Belgrade 2027 will be an event that will change not only Surčin and Belgrade, but also the whole of Serbia, and perhaps the entire region of the Western Balkans, where the EXPO exhibition will be organised for the first time.

1,000 days until Specialised Exhibition EXPO 2027 Belgrade
Belgrade,
17 August 2024
Opening the exhibition on the Sava Promenade on the occasion of 1,000 days until the EXPO exhibition in our country, which shows Serbia's 140-year long participation in previous EXPO events, Begović said that Serbia's numerous participations in international exhibitions and all the experience and knowledge we have gained as EXPO participants for the last 140 years, is our great comparative advantage in the organisation of EXPO Belgrade 2027.
She reiterated that EXPO is our huge development chance and an opportunity for the whole world to rank us among attractive countries that are rich in smart, innovative, hospitable people, natural beauty, but also history and cultural heritage.
Serbia will be a country of innovation, a country of music, sports and technology, Begović pointed out.
According to her, the idea of EXPO always focuses on innovations and new technologies, from the first presentation of the phone, the first mobile network concept, the first computer, the first hybrid car.
These are all technologies that have changed the world, but also technologies that have connected humanity, the Minister emphasised and added that the arrival of representatives of 120 countries and a large number of international organisations is expected.
Four million visitors are expected. This means that we will have a large number of ambassadors when the exhibition participants return to their countries and that we will have the whole world present in our country, Begović said.
