The place of the event VENUE: Vikarijat, Ul. Josipa Jurja Strossmayera 58, Osijek Forum ICT-society: Why in Osijek? Osijek has been profiling as the regional ICT center in the last few years with a number of high-quality IT companies and a strong professional association. Some of these companies have been successful in the international market for several years. Others are a little younger, but they have been able to impose themselves as authorities in their business niches. These companies employ professionals, produce quality software and export to many markets around the world. Precisely because some of them are largely or completely export oriented, people often do not know about them in the domestic market, although they do business better than most other companies in our country. It is also proof that, despite the current economic situation and the emigration of the young population, the willingness to work and the expertise have a prospect in such environment. Today, most of these companies are gathered under the umbrella of the Osijek Software City, which, on behalf of its members, as well as the entire information and communication industry, is strongly and continuously active both in the local community and in educational and political institutions. The Osijek Software City project was launched in early 2012 by several ICT companies, with the aim of increasing the attractiveness of software development sector in Osijek, as well as increasing the competitiveness of developers in the market and encouraging entrepreneurship in the ICT sector. The ultimate goal is, of course, employment! From the perspective of the employer - employment of educated and motivated workers, and from the perspective of workers - employment in a prospective and quality company. There is currently a chronic lack of qualified staff in the regional ICT industry, which could be changed through organization of free education, local, national and global programs, formal and informal gathering of experts, exchange of experiences and opinions, and highlighting what knowledge and skills are needed for employment in companies from this field. Today, the association includes 34 legal entities, 68 individuals and a number of individuals and institutions supporting the activities of the Association. The long-term goal is to achieve Osijek's recognition in the world as a city where IT professionals live and work, and as a city where many companies produce good software. Such recognition brings with it a number of advantages: it affects the positive image of the city, stimulates new investors, contributes to a healthier economy, is a recommendation to prospective clients, and a "springboard" for start-ups. In the period from 2012 to 2016, the number of software development companies in Osijek-Baranja County increased by 102% and the total number of employees increased by 93%. Total revenue in the same period grew by 97%, sales abroad by 152%, and profit by 133%. Taking this into account, Osijek was a logical choice for holding the Forum ICT Society. Introduction speech Dear colleagues, dear associates, we are honored to have the opportunity to invite you to the first Forum ICT society. It will be held on March 23, 2018 in the city of Osijek.
