dc.description.abstract | The objective of the study is to suggest ways of attracting Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) in Republic of Kosovo. I will study why FDIs are attracted in Republic of Kosovo and how it will affects the development and survival of SMEs local companies in Republic of Kosovo. The special focus of this study is technology spillovers, know-how and skills. I will analyze that the diversity of FDIs country origins can enable FDIs spillovers by increasing the variety of technologies and management practices brought by foreign companies, to which local companies are exposed and that they can potentially apply. Further, the extent to which local companies can apply these technologies and practices depends upon their absorptive capacity.
The major goal of this study is to identification and attraction of foreign technical know-how/skills. This will contribute to economic development and social expansion of the country, and inspire the private sector contribution to enhance country’s economic development and improvement. FDI promotes the transfer of new technology, know-how and skills between countries, and provides the Kosovo economy to promote its products more widely in international markets.
The study will be carried out in the form of case-study research following a deductive approach, which will allow the researcher to formulate a hypothesis based on existing literature. On the other hand, the analytical approach will be use research analysis as quantitative data will be gathered for measuring the FDIs performance.
The expected results of this study will be of great help for Republic of Kosovo in specific the Ministry of Trade and Industry by increasing its performance by attracting more foreign investors which they invest more in new technology and also by hiring employees which they have more experience working with FDIs in Republic of Kosovo.
In conclusion, with the help and support from the Ministry of Trade and Industry an investigation, report and proposed recommendations will be implemented and followed-up for improving SMEs technology and know-how/skills which they will be offer from the FDIs that operate in Republic of Kosovo territory. The outcome of this study will be a great use first for the SMEs they will be able to transfer better technology and increasing their overall efficiency. However, the SMEs will be benefited as they will be able to serve their customers promptly with faster shipments and capture larger share of the Republic of Kosovo market. | en |
