Macedonia2025 and the Swedish-Macedonian Chamber of Commerce have formally signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), marking a significant milestone in strengthening economic and business cooperation between North Macedonia and Sweden.

The MoU was signed by Nikica Mojsoska Blazhevski, CEO of Macedonia2025, and Samuel Naumovski Vickius, Executive Director of the Swedish-Macedonian Chamber of Commerce. This partnership sets a foundation for strategic collaboration to enhance bilateral business relations, support investment opportunities, and deepen ties between companies, entrepreneurs, and professionals in both markets.

Taking place at the historic van der Nootska Palatset, the Forum will bring together Macedonian and Swedish companies, investors, diaspora professionals, and other key stakeholders to foster dialogue, explore collaboration opportunities, and build long-term partnerships.

Macedonia2025 has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Macedonian Association for Customer and Employee Experience (MACEX), marking the beginning of a strategic partnership focused on improving workplace culture and employee experience across Macedonia.

The agreement was signed with Hristina Velkovska, President of MACEX and Director of Vita Institut, a long-standing advocate for modern organizational development and people-centered leadership.

Through this collaboration, Macedonia2025 will support the MACEX/Quintaum National Certification, a program now in its third year that recognizes companies committed to creating healthy, engaging, and human-centric work environments.

The certification uses employee experience as a core diagnostic methodology, helping organizations identify strengths, address challenges, and implement clear standards for continuous improvement. By focusing directly on the voices and experiences of employees, the program contributes to raising overall workplace quality and competitiveness in the country.

The 2026 National Certification cycle is currently in progress, and Macedonia2025 is proud to contribute to an initiative that aligns closely with our mission of strengthening business competitiveness, leadership culture, and sustainable organizational growth.

Together with MACEX, we look forward to supporting more companies in building workplaces where people thrive and where strong performance follows.

Supporting the University Clinic of Radiotherapy and Oncology in Skopje

This holiday season, Macedonia2025 launches Holiday Giving for Healing, a holiday fundraising campaign dedicated to supporting the University Clinic of Radiotherapy and Oncology in Skopje one of the country’s most important institutions for cancer treatment and care.

Through this initiative, we invite our community, partners, diaspora, and friends to come together and contribute in any amount and in any form to help strengthen the care provided to patients and support the medical teams who work tirelessly every day.

Why This Campaign Matters?

For many patients and families, oncology care represents a challenging and demanding period that requires not only medical expertise, but also strong institutional support and adequate resources.

The University Clinic of Radiotherapy and Oncology plays a vital role in providing treatment, care, and hope to thousands of people across the country. By contributing through this campaign, donors help reinforce the clinic’s capacity to continue delivering high-quality, patient-centered care.

How Can You Help?

Donations are collected through Paybee, making it easy and secure to contribute from anywhere.

• Contributions can be financial or in-kind
• Every donation, regardless of size, makes a meaningful difference
• Giving is open to individuals, companies, and members of the diaspora

This is a collective effort built on solidarity, responsibility, and compassion.

Transparency and Accountability:

Macedonia2025 is committed to full transparency.

All collected funds and donated items will be documented, and a public report will be published outlining:

1. What was donated
2. How the donations were allocated
3. How they are being put to use at the Clinic

This ensures that every contribution is accounted for and used responsibly.

A Shared Act of Care:

Holiday Giving for Healing is more than a fundraising campaign – it is a reminder that meaningful change happens when communities come together.

By choosing to give, you become part of a shared effort to support care, strengthen institutions, and bring healing closer to those who need it most.
