The representatives of the state Investment and Business Development Agency CzechInvest arrived in Brno at the end of last week, where they met with the management of the CEITEC project and the best scientists and looked through the existing laboratories. They received detailed information about the planned instrumentation, about the premises of the laboratories and about the prepared projects, also about well-known names which should be connected with CEITEC in the near future.
A multinational company with their own research and development that is interested in investing in the Czech Republic is always interested to know whether they will get skilled staff who will be able to start with international projects immediately. People, who can work with modern instruments and can use technologies connected with it, are essential. It is young people of this type who CEITEC will be educating in the following years.
“CEITEC will offer unique instrumentation and laboratory facilities which will be untouched in the Czech Republic, “ says Tomáš Hruda, Project Director. “We were in touch with more than two hundred companies during the preparation of the project application and now others are getting in touch with us. We are pleased that it is CzechInvest who is interested to introduce CEITEC to potential investors,“ adds Hruda.
“We have had the opportunity to familiarize ourselves in great detail with the whole of CEITEC project and we are aware of the advantages which it will bring to the Czech Republic,“ said Stanislav Martínek, Investments Divisions Director of the CzechInvest agency. “CEITEC will be attracting top scientists to South Moravia and will also offer the latest infrastructure for research and development. And this is what can be a crucial point for the arrival of worldwide companies with their own research into not only the South-Moravian region,“ adds Martínek.
