The startup ecosystem in Kosovo
The Kosovo startup ecosystem is showing signs of stagnation in 2024 despite an increase in the number of actors offering support. While new organizations are emerging, funding remains insufficient, with limited and fragmented support from donors and a lack of continuous programs. The absence of pre-acceleration and acceleration programs leaves startups with few post-program development. Local outsourcing companies are hesitant to develop their products, further hindering growth.
