Small modular reactors (SMRs) are increasingly being profiled as a realistic solution for stable and low-emission power generation. They also represent an opportunity for Slovak companies to engage in international projects and supply chains with higher added value.

Representatives of Eximbank regularly participate in the OECD negotiations where the rules for export credits are discussed.

Slovak companies assert themselves on the Italian market by quality rather than quantity. Their success is based on specialisation, technological level and the ability to adapt to partners’ requirements. These factors allow them to enter supply chains and build long-term business relationships.
