The Context

Why FCBC?

Cyprus has achieved remarkable success through tourism, shipping, real estate, financial services and international business. These sectors remain important pillars of the economy.

FCBC seeks to complement these strengths by encouraging the development of additional growth engines that can support future generations and strengthen the country's long-term competitiveness.

The initiative focuses on talent, innovation, research, technology, engineering, industrial development and sustainable economic diversification.

Develop Future Generations
By creating high-quality opportunities in technology, engineering and research, FCBC helps keep Cyprus's talent at home.
