BASIC INFORMATIONS Corporate Environment in the Czech Republic The Czech Republic is a land-locked country, sharing borders with Germany, Poland, Slovakia and Austria. The country has over 10.3 million inhabitants. The capital city is Prague with almost 1.2 million inhabitants. According to the latest data revealed by Eurostat, Prague is the richest region (GDP per citizen) in the Czech Republic. Prague is also the 12th richest state among the EU countries. The rest of the Czech and Moravian regions are below 75% of the average EU threshold and, as a result, these regions are entitled to draw support from the EU funds. The second richest region is Central Bohemia, with 70% of the European average. The poorest region is Central Moravia in which GDP is 59.8% (per citizen) of the European average. The Czech Republic, being one of the post-communist countries, is politically and economically stable. Inflation here is considered to be one of the lowest in Europe, although it rose markedly to 7.5% in January 2008, this being its maximum since November 1998. The country s economy is mainly industrial. The largest sector is engineering, reflecting the strength of the motor car companies and their sub suppliers which are experiencing a great boom. The efficiency of the Czech economy is rising; the year-on-year growth of GDP in the third quarter of the year 2007 was 6%. The economy has maintained growth of 6% or more for 10 quarters in a row. GDP was 3.2 trillion CZK at the end of 2006, which came to 313,662 CZK per citizen. Turning to unemployment, this has fallen slightly in the past few months. It was 6.1% in January 2008. Increasingly, companies are looking for greater numbers of competent staff, whether they are qualified experts or ordinary blue-collar workers or craftsmen. As a result of this demand for experienced staff, gross wages are rising. The average of the gross wage was 21,470 CZK in the third quarter of 2007 (year-on-year growth was 7.6 %). Frequent revisions of important laws, the generally opaque system of laws, the rising deficiency of the working force, the slow construction of the motorway infrastructure, an overprotective labour code, slow courts and the poor system of claiming rights are the pressing problems of the corporate environment. Some companies also worry about the strengthening of the Czech crown. Income tax of corporate bodies will, based on the last year s government reform, gradually fall. The rate fell from 24% to 21% during the taxation period for 2008; it will be lowered to 20% in 2009 and to 19% in 2010. Individuals, including entrepreneurs, pay 15% flat tax during the taxation period of 2008, which will fall to 12.5% in 2009. There have been changes in VAT as a result of the recent government reforms. The base rate for VAT is 19% but the reduced rate rose from 5% to 9% in January 2008. Financially interconnected companies can use group registration to register for VAT from the beginning of this year. The groups and the size of groups of companies are voluntary. The groups can then report and hand in the declaration of taxes as a single entity. Paper handling and costs, therefore, will be reduced. Consumer tax has to be paid for spirits, beer, wine and intermediate products such as mineral oils and tobacco products. Details for this are stated in law no. 353/2003, St., as amended. A special type of reform, the so-called ecological energy tax, has been put into practice since 2008. This tax has to be paid for the damage to the environment which is done when energy is produced. These taxes, with a few exceptions, are on electricity, gas and solid fuels. Renewable resources or ecological sources and gas to provide heating in households are exempt from this tax. Vehicle Excise Duty has to be paid for road carriages and their attached vehicles used for business purposes. Details and more concrete rates are stated in law no. 16/1993, St., as amended. Among other taxes there are real-estate transfer taxes, gift taxes, succession duty and real estate (property) taxes. There are many associated administrative charges and these changes can be found in law no. 634/2004, 353/2003, St., as amended. The main regulations for entrepreneurs are Commercial Code (no. 513/1991St.), The Trade Licensing Act (no. 455/1991 St.), and Labour Code (no. 262/2006 St.). Overall legal regulations are fragmented and consist of many other regulations (mainly contained in the Civil Code, Consumer Protection, Employment Act, Building Act, Insolvency Act, Economic Competition Protection Act and many other tax laws). The Companies Register is the main registry for entrepreneurs, which is accessible on. The Trades Register is for sole traders with its website. Unless the applicant runs the business as an individual (there are some exceptions but they must have a business licence), the applicant can set up a number of types of companies. The two most common companies are a limited liability company and a joint stock company. Other forms of companies include a public limited company, a limited partnership company, and a contingent company, which are also mentioned in the Commercial Code. A limited liability company is a company whose capital stock is made up of deposits from all partners who are liable for the accountability of the company until the company is registered in the Companies Register. The company can be set up by one person and it can have up to 50 members. One individual may be a partner in up to three limited liability companies. The capital stock has to be at least 200,000 CZK. The company is liable for all its debts and liabilities. Partners are jointly and severally liable for the company s liabilities up to the total amount of the unpaid part of the deposits of all the partners in accordance with the written status of the company in the Companies Register. Similar conditions for establishing limited liability companies can be found in 105-153 of the Commercial Code. The capital stock of a joint stock company is itemized into a certain number of shares which have a nominal amount per share. The shares can be issued in the name of the owner or another individual. The company may be set up by one founder, if he is a corporate body, or by two or more founders. The capital stock of the company established by a tender offer has to be at least 20 million CZK. Where a company is set up without undergoing the tender offer the capital stock has to be at least 2 million CZK. The company is liable for all its debts and liabilities. Shareholders are not liable for the company s liabilities. Detailed conditions for establishing joint stock companies are specified in 154 220 of the Commercial Code.

These kinds of investments fully demand a qualified and sophisticated labour force. Mentioned projects are making a major contribution to the knowledge-based economy. In the competition among countries for placement of direct foreign investment, it is absolutely necessary to offer a qualified and highly-educated working force. Czech Republic (the former Czechoslovakia) ranked among countries with the highest percentage of university-science and technology graduates in the world. Presently this tradition continues: the number of university-science and technology graduates directly related to the highest in Europe. Our country also pays considerable attention to foreign-language education, where English and German predominate. At least one world language is studied by 76 % of university students, while 20% study two and 4% study three or more languages. The outstanding geographical location of the Czech Republic - in the centre of Europe - offers excellent connections to the majority of the important transit routes. The Czech transportation network belongs to one of the best among countries in Central and Eastern Europe. As for the offer of business properties suitable for manufacturing and production, business support services and technology centres, CzechInvest Business Development and Investment agency administers a business property database which currently consists of more than 350 industrial zones and buildings fully prepared for potential investors, including the necessary infrastructure. The Czech Ministry of Industry and Trade s special support programme for industrial-zone development has been operated in the Czech Republic since 1998. The project also helps to mediate cooperation between the state, developers and local authorities. In addition to this fact, since 1998 the Czech Republic has been offering another benefit - investment incentives to the manufacturing, business support services and technology centres investors (both foreign and domestic). Investment incentives and support for investors The Investment Incentives Act precisely defines the criteria for receiving incentives, from the outset it has been discussed with the European Commission and complies with the EU s rules for granting state aid. The Czech investment-support scheme includes tax relief, job-creation grants, training and retraining grants as well as construction and development of industrial properties. Investors can obtain distinctive state aid in the regions worst affected by unemployment (support of job creation programmes, employment of people registered at the labour office, secondary school graduates and the handicapped). However, companies or projects which, for whatever reason, do not meet the criteria of the Investment Incentives Act may take advantage of another form of the aid available in the Czech Republic, for example EU structural funds. The Czech Republic a European hub of new technologies and innovation Since 1993 a host of major multinational companies have come to the Czech Republic, investing billions of dollars in our country and creating tens of thousands of new jobs. For example, Czech Republic is now home to global management centres of DHL; Accenture, Olympus, Honeywell and IBM. Among Central Bohemia production you can find the car factory of Toyota Peugeot Citroen Automobile (TPCA), which is one of the biggest investment projects of any kind in Europe. We shouldn t forget to mention the most successful project from the automotive sector Hyundai, whose investment of 1.2 billion dollars represents the investment record in the Czech Republic. Hyundai created more than 3,000 new jobs and its full production reached 300,000 cars a year. Investment projects such as IPS Alpha and Hitachi, which are involved in the unequalled concentration of production of LCD monitors and flat-screen televisions, requiring the creation of a remarkable number of new jobs. Each project employs up to 2,000 people. The structure of foreign investments recently shows that the Czech Republic is shifting from quantity towards quality. Investors who require thousands of cheap workers are moving further east and there are more and more smaller projects heading to the Czech Republic which employ a high educated labour force with language skills. The big potential of a small country In the near future the trend of direct investment into sophisticated production, research and development activities, business shared services can be expected to continue in the Czech Republic. Greater emphasis in business development projects will be placed on modern fields such as biotechnology, nanotechnology, microelectronics and pharmaceuticals. Czech Republic is directly located in the centre of Europe, often called the heart of Europe. It has huge potential and will not be afraid to use it. CzechInvest, the Investment and Business Development Agency, is an agency coordinated by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic. CzechInvest fully supports coming FDI (foreign direct investment), business activities of local small and medium sized enterpreneurs with a wide range of services, development programmes to attract investment projects and promote the development of Czech companies and the country s business environment abroad. The main objective of CzechInvest is to advise and support existing and new entrepreneurs and foreign investors in the Czech Republic.

INTRODUCTION ANALYSIS OFFICE MARKET IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC IS RAPIDLY GROWING Years 2006 and 2007 clearly showed that although most development activity and the majority of office space in the country is still concentrated in Prague, modern offices are no longer limited exclusively to the capital city. Rapid growth in Brno, a growing market in large regional cities such as Ostrava and PlzeÀ and emerging smaller regional markets are expected to contribute to the overall Czech office market in 2008. PRAGUE Prague, however, remains the central hub for modern offices in the country with most international companies present in the Czech Republic. The total modern office stock (A-class and B-class buildings with more than 800 m 2 of rentable space) comprised 2,182,285 m 2 at the end of the year 2007, increasing by more than 10 percent from 2006. Around 69.4 percent of the total stock is represented by A-class properties. In 2007, new supply reached 162,000 m 2. 83 percent of this new supply was in inner city location most of that in Prague 4. The rest is located in the outer city. The number of new construction or refurbishment in the city centre remained on the low level with only one significant project in the pipeline with expected completion in 1Q 2008. Around 68 percent of the total stock in 2007 is represented by newly built properties. Major completions in 2007 comprised âsob building (37,700 m 2 ), Gemini building A (17,550 m 2 ), E-Gate (16,855 m 2 ), Technology Centre âeská Spofiitelna (15,000 m 2 ), BB Centre building E (14,600 m 2 ), Oasis Florenc (14,393 m 2 ), The Park buildings 9 and 11 (7,600 m 2 and 7,836 m 2 ) and East Building (7,212 m 2 ). Although Brno started to develop five years ago, the Brno office market already has a well established position among other regional markets. It is not only due to the existence of universities and direct traffic connections to Prague, Bratislava and Vienna, but Brno also offers attractive conditions to IT, shared services and call centres. The total modern office stock reached more than 177,000 m 2 in 2007 and it is expected to grow to more than 240,000 m 2 by the end of 2008. Although speculative development plays a significant role in current market growth and higher vacancy rate is related to the rapid expansion of the market, new projects are completed in response to expected demand. Ostrava is becoming an increasingly attractive location for developers as well as for international and Czech companies looking for office space to lease. With a population of approximately 1.2 million people, the Moravia-Silesia Region offers a sufficient quantity of qualified labour force as well as new university graduates. Educated people and an easily accessible location give the city an important competitive advantage. Large companies already recognised this high potential and some of them currently thinking above locating their call centres and shared service centres there. The total stock reached nearly 65,000 m 2 in 2007. The office market in PlzeÀ is in its early stage of development with first signs of activity. The total office stock was almost 40,000 m 2 in 2007. The future growth of supply will be strongly influenced by the success of the existing projects. The growth of the Czech economy is also contributing to the development of office markets in regions. An inflow of foreign direct investments and good relationships with neighbouring countries are the examples of the main key drivers. âeské Budûjovice, Hradec Králové, Liberec, Ústí nad Labem, Pardubice and Olomouc are shifting into the focus of developers and prospective tenants but currently offer only a small amount of modern office space. Major completions expected in 2008 are Kavãí Hory (42,120 m 2 ), City Tower (42,072 m 2 ), Palladium (20,000 m 2 ), PPF building âeská poji Èovna seat (20,000 m 2 ), Gemini building B (18,734 m 2 ), Opatov Park (13,500 m2), The Park building 12 (12,000 m 2 ) and Corso Karlín IIa (10,724 m 2 ). When compared to the previous year, take-up of office space was significantly lower in 2007, reaching a volume of 195,197 m 2. Regarding the structure of take-up, 2007 saw a shift back towards the newly built properties. These included more than 80 percent of all transactions - significantly more than in the previous year. The financial and professional services, banking, insurance, and manufacturing sectors recorded the largest take-up per sector in 2007. The average size of a deal in 2007 was 685 m 2. We expect total take-up for 2008 to be around 200,000 m 2. The most significant take-up deals in 2007 were Skanska (13,500 m 2 in Opatov Park in Prague 4), Raiffeisenbank (8,796 m 2, renegotiation in Raiffeisen Centrum in Prague 4), Generali Poji Èovna (8,389 m 2 in City Element in Prague 4), âeská spofiitelna (8,300 m 2 in E-Gate in Prague 6), PPF Investments (8,035 m 2 in E-Gate in Prague 6), Vegacom (5,200 m 2 in KCD 4 in Prague 10), Toyota (4,800 m 2 in Toyota HG in Prague 5), âeské dráhy Cargo (3,200 m 2 in Lighthouse in Prague 8), Unipetrol (3,143 m 2 in Gemini building A in Prague 4), Komerãní banka (2,922 m 2 in Rokytka I in Prague 9), TNS Aisa (2,739 m 2 in Trianon in Prague 4), Ness Technologies (2,695 m 2 in The Park building 9 in Prague 4) and Fujitsu Siemens (2,500 m 2 in The Park building 11 in Prague 4). Prague 4 remained the most attractive district in Prague with more than 32 percent of the total take-up in Prague. The vacancy rate in Prague dropped from 2 percent at the end of 2006 to 5.76 percent at the end of 2007, which was 125,622 m 2 of office space. This was mainly due to a lack of new office stock coming onto the market and constantly increasing demand. The vacancy rate of Class A office buildings reached 5.7 percent and Class B properties had a vacancy rate of 5.97 percent. The declining vacancy and the shortage of available stock in the city centre created favourable conditions for slight growth of prime rents than in previous years. Rents currently range between 19 and 20 per m 2 per month. The overall rental prediction for 2008 is stable although the expected extensive new supply with the exception of the city centre may create a pressure for rent reduction. REGIONAL MARKETS There is a significantly growing interest from international occupiers for modern, A-class purpose-built office space in secondary cities across the Czech Republic. Demand is mainly driven by the shared service sector and call centre industries searching for a cost effective alternative to Prague. Up to now, developers have predominantly focused on Brno and Ostrava. With the expected improvements of regional infrastructure and the shortage of qualified labour in Prague, the regional office markets will continue strengthening their position.

CZECHINVEST CZECHINVEST TODAY A thousand investors have relied on CzechInvest CzechInvest, the Investment and Business Development Agency of the Czech Republic, has helped nearly one thousand foreign and domestic investors to realise their plans in the country. Since its establishment in 1992, the agency has played a role in 963 investments worth a total of EUR 22.223 billion. Nearly 188,000 people have found or will find work directly in projects mediated by CzechInvest, with thousands of other jobs being created in related projects. In 2007 alone, 182 companies turned to CzechInvest with projects valued at nearly EUR 3.6 billion. In terms of the number of new investors, 2007 was thus the most successful year in the agency s history. Czech companies were the most active, followed closely by investors from Germany and the United States. Last year, new investors in the Czech Republic undertook to create 30,598 new jobs. Investors find success in the Czech Republic Among the 182 projects in which the agency took part last year, 65% involved expansions. This means that companies in the Czech Republic have been successful to the point that not only are they not interested in leaving, but are rather expanding their activities. The expansion of production on the part of investors operating in the Czech Republic is clearly the most important indicator of the domestic business environment s quality. Particularly gratifying is the fact that in the great majority of cases these expansions represent a qualitative leap and bring investment in state-of-the-art technologies, services and research and development. Credit for the lion s share of these expansions goes to investors that CzechInvest has cooperated with over the years. A range of these investors first set up manufacturing projects in the Czech Republic and are now establishing development centres and centres providing the broadest range of business services, from accounting and customer service to custom software development. Strengthening research and development Twenty-eight new technology centres for science and research have been established in the Czech Republic with CzechInvest s assistance, which is the same number of investors who decided for the Czech Republic in 2007 in this field. Half of these applied for inclusion in the national Framework Programme for the Support of Technology Centres and Centres of Shared Services, whereas the other half chose the European Potential Programme. In 2006, CzechInvest attracted 13 similar projects to the Czech Republic. CzechInvest expects similar development also among centres providing business services. There were 13 fewer investments last year in comparison with 2006. However, this was not due to a lack of interest on the part of investors, but rather on their waiting for the launch of national and European support programmes. The national programme started in the first half of April 2007; the European programme began this year. The greatest number of investors last year focused on South Moravia. In coming years, 3,900 people will find work there in 40 new companies worth CZK 13 billion. The Ústí region ranked second with 31 projects, while the North Moravia, Olomouc and Plzen regions each attracted 17 new investors.

PRAGUE BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA PRAGUE ABOUT REGION The capital of Czech Republic is situated in the middle of Stfiedoãesk kraj ( Central Bohemia Region) which surrounds it completely. On January 1, 2006 the area of Prague amounted to 496 km 2 (0.6 % of Czech Republic territory). The region (kraj) of Prague is smaller then all other Czech regions. Its population was decreasing in the last 15 years but now it is growing again with more people moving to the capital. Population of the metropolitan region on December 31, 2006 reached 1,188,126 inhabitants, i.e. 11.6 % of the population of the Czech Republic. As number of inhabitants is concerned, Prague is number two among regions, second only to Moravskoslezsk kraj (Moravia-Silesia). The Historic Centre of Prague was put on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1992 as one of the largest urban sanctuaries in the world. There are more then 1,300 historic buildings protected by law as national monuments. The capital s economy is being strongly supported by the mass development of tourism. Prague accommodation services account for half of nights spent by foreign tourists in Czech Republic. The capital is also number one among destinations for all foreign tourists visiting the country (89.8 %). However, some indexes put Prague in an inferior position, e.g. average number of nights spent (by foreign tourists) per capita in this respect Prague is second to the region Karlovy Vary. The Czech capital is still lacking accommodation capacity in the category of five star hotels. Prague is also the seat of several universities. Univerzita Karlova (Universitas Carolina - Charles University) was founded in 1348. Virtually all non-technical fields of studies are being taught at its 17 colleges, 14 of which are located in Prague. Other examples of Prague s universities are: âeské vysoké uãení technické (âvut - Czech Technical University), Vysoká kola ekonomická (V E - University of economics) âeská zemûdûlská univerzita (âzu - Czech University of Life Sciences) and Vysoká kola chemicko-technologická (V CHT - Institute of Chemical Technology). Study of the arts is available at Akademie múzick ch umûní (AMU - Academy of Performing Arts), Akademie v tvarn ch umûní (AVU - Academy of Fine Arts) and Vysoká kola umûlecko prûmyslová (V UP - Academy of Arts Architecture and Design). The Police Academy of the Czech Republic is also located in the capital. More then 20 private universities have been founded in Prague since 1997. In the area of research and development of new technologies, Prague is the undisputed leader in the country. Nearly all of the institutes of the Academy of Sciences of Czech Republic are seated in Prague. Expenditure on science and research in 2004 per capita in the Prague Region amounted to Kã 11,362 with 2.06 % of employees from the capital working in this field. For several years now, Prague has seen development in the line of retailing, transport and tourism. In the manufacturing industry, production of business machines and computers is in good shape and there is there is starting to be growth in the construction business. Prague, as a seat for business, has its advantageous points: there is a qualified workforce and supplying firms within easy reach. Furthermore, universities and other schooling institutions, as well as development centers, are at hand to provide education for prospective employees. Traditional domains that are well developed in Prague and its vicinity are car manufacturing, pharmaceutical and brewing industries. The strong potential of this region is re-enforced by its well developed structure of roads and railways connected to the European transportation network, well established municipal transport although the road orbital has not been yet completed, and the newly refurbished airport with 50 regular flight connections. There is good accommodation capacity in the capital, many historic buildings and monuments, more than average density of the telephone system network, a population with a high proportion of people in productive age, highly qualified workforce and a high proportion of foreign investments flowing to the city. Suppliers are never far away. Sciences, education, health care and culture in the region are of a very top quality.

CENTRAL BOHEMIA REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA CENTRAL BOHEMIA REGION ABOUT REGION The region of Middle Bohemia has a favorable position encircling the capital of Czech Republic. It is situated virtually in the middle of the country and neighbors eight other regions apart from Prague. The region (kraj) is divided among 12 districts (okres): Bene ov, Beroun, Kladno, Kolín, Kutná Hora, Mûlník, Mladá Boleslav, Nymburk, Praha-v chod (Prague-East), Praha-západ (Prague-West), Pfiíbram and Rakovník. Middle Bohemia is the largest of Czech regions. On January 1, 2006 its area amounted to 11,015 km 2 (14 % of Czech territory). The region s population on December 31, 2006 ranked third among the regions of Czech Republic with 1,172,254 persons, i.e. 11.4 % of the country s population. There are altogether 1,146 communities in Middle Bohemia i.e. 18.3 % of all communities in Czech Republic (the most of all regions). The administration of the region is seated in Prague but its largest town is Kladno with 69,276 inhabitants. There are altogether 38 towns with a population exceeding 5,000 people in Middle Bohemia. Middle Bohemia is a region used by most Prague citizens for their leisure and entertainment activities on weekends. Protected landscape areas (Kfiivoklátsko, âesk kras, âesk ráj, Kokofiínsko) and river basins of Sázava and Berounka are among the most popular destinations. Big tourist highlights are located in the historic downtown of Kutná Hora with St. Barbora s Dome, and Our Lady s Assumption cathedral in Sedlec. Kutná Hora has certain limitations in the capacity of its accommodation and in gastronomic services. Karl tejn castle which is only now trying to get on the UNESCO World heritage list is undoubtedly the most visited castle in Czech Republic. There are other significant castles in the region, namely Kfiivoklát, Toãník, âesk ternberk, Konopi tû, Lány or Mûlník. Citizens of the region study mostly at universities in Prague. In the territory of Middle Bohemia there is just one public university Faculty of Biomedical Engineering of âvut in Kladno. For private universities there is a branch of The Institute of Finance and Administration in Kladno, Academia Rerum Civilium in Kolín (political and social science university), Stfiedoãesk vysoko kolsk institut (Middle- Bohemian Academic Institute) in Kladno and koda Auto University in Mladá Boleslav. The Czech Academy of Sciences has several of its institutes seated in Middle Bohemia: Astronomical Institute (Ondfiejov), Institute of Botany (PrÛhonice), Institute of Inorganic Chemistry and Nuclear Physics Institute ( eï u Prahy). Expenses per capita on research and science in Middle Bohemia in 2004 amounted to Kã 6,326. In this respect, Middle Bohemia is number two among the regions of Czech Republic. Economical structures of the region are in many respects complementing to those of Prague. Nevertheless, Middle Bohemia is more concentrated on farming (Labe lowlands) and the manufacturing industry. The dominant position belongs to the car making industry (Mladá Boleslav, Kolín) and sectors linked to it. There are also some important machinery producers in the region. In some respects Middle Bohemia gains from its proximity to Prague. The region s car making industry and technological cluster could have an impact on an inter-regional or international scale. The region s potential stems from its closeness to the capital, complemented by integrated transportation systems directly connected to Prague. Roads and railroads of crucial importance pass through Middle Bohemia. A high rate of immigration from other regions is one of its assets, as well as a multitude of landmarks and monuments, the extent of spending on research and sciences, the strength of the car making industry (with a large network of sub-contractors) and generally good conditions for development of farming and industry.

SOUTH BOHEMIA REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA SOUTH BOHEMIA REGION ABOUT REGION The region of South Bohemia is situated on the boundary with Bavaria and Austria. Its neighbors are Kraj Vysoãina (Vysoãina Region), PlzeÀsk kraj (PlzeÀ Region), Middle Bohemia and Jihomoravsk kraj (South Moravia Region). There are seven districts in this region: âeské Budûjovice, âesk Krumlov, JindfiichÛv Hradec, Písek, Prachatice, Strakonice and Tábor. On January 1, 2006 the area of South Bohemia was 10,057 km 2 which is 12.8 % of Czech Republic territory. South Bohemia is the second largest region in the country but only the seventh most populated on December 31, 2006 there were only 630,006 inhabitants living in South Bohemia (6.1 % of the population in the Czech Republic). âeské Budûjovice is the capital of South Bohemia with a population of 94,747. There are 20 towns with populations exceeding 5,000 in the region. Tourists coming to South Bohemia seek its well preserved nature. There is the national park umava and three other sanctuaries in the region. South Bohemia has areas that are well disposed for outdoor sports in the summer (Lipno reservoir, TfieboÀ with its ponds and the Vltava valley) and in winter there are skiing resorts in the umava Mountains. Fairs of national importance are organized every year in the city of âeské Budûjovice. Two of South Bohemia s landmarks are on the UNESCO World Heritage List the medieval downtown of âesk Krumlov and rural baroque sanctuary in Hola ovice village. The town of Slavonice and the complex of ponds in the TfieboÀ area are also contending for a place on UNESCO list. âeské Budûjovice, JindfiichÛv Hradec, Tábor and TfieboÀ are protected by law as urban sanctuaries. The most visited castles in South Bohemia are Hluboká nad Vltavou, âesk Krumlov, Orlík and Zvíkov. Jelení bridge in the town of Písek dates from the end of the 13th century and is the oldest existing bridge built of stones on Czech territory. Jihoãeská universita (University of South Bohemia; JâU) has seven colleges. Mainly local works in disciplines linked to agriculture and biology have national importance. Prague s V E College of management is located in JindfiichÛv Hradec and in âeské Budûjovice there are two institutes of the AV âr: The Biology Center and the Institute of Systems of Biology and Ecology. Thanks to the long local tradition in fishpond cultivation South Bohemia economy is marked with a high participation in this primary sector. Other traditional domains are construction, machinery and the food industry. A typical feature of South Bohemia s economy is a high number of industrial clusters. The most developed industries are those in waterworks technologies, renewable resources of energy, and construction materials production. CzechInvest agency is surveying possibilities concerning new clusters in welding, brewing and lumber domains. South Bohemia has its potential in preserved nature, numerous landmarks, a relatively advantageous age structure of the population, a contemplated construction of a railway corridor and a highway leading to âeské Budûjovice, sufficiency of accommodation capacity in mountain areas, numerous expositions and fairs, the opening of new border check points, building of new thematic industrial clusters and research and development in biology and farming.

PLZE REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA PLZE REGION ABOUT REGION The region of PlzeÀ is located in the western part of Bohemia on the boundary with Bavaria, neighboring with Middle and South Bohemia and with the regions of Karlovy Vary and Ústí nad Labem. The PlzeÀ Region is divided among seven districts: DomaÏlice, Klatovy, PlzeÀ-mûsto (City), PlzeÀ-sever (North), Rokycany and Tachov. On January 1, 2006 the area of the PlzeÀ region was 7,561 km 2, i.e. 9.6 % of the country s territory. It is the third largest of regions. On December 31 the PlzeÀ Region had a population of 554,537 which is 5.4 % of the Czech Republic population and the ninth place among the country s region. The region s capital PlzeÀ with 163,392 inhabitants is the fourth largest city in Czech Republic. There are 14 towns with a population over 5,000 in the PlzeÀ Region. The most important natural monuments include the National Park of umava, sanctuary umava and sanctury âesk les in the PlzeÀ Region. All of these are continuously gaining importance as winter sports resorts. This trend is being helped by the gradual easing of controls on the boundary with Bavaria. Areas in the vicinity of PlzeÀ also offer interesting space for leisure and recreation activities. Though none of the landmarks and historic buildings in the region belongs to the UNESCO list of World Heritage, the region is virtually covered with them. Among the most interesting are monasteries in Plasy and Kladruby and castles Kozel, Rábí (ruins) and vihov. There are three urban sanctuaries in PlzeÀ Region. The tower of St. Bartholomew s Dome (the highest church tower in Czech Republic) has become a symbol of the sanctuary in PlzeÀ. The other two sanctuaries are in DomaÏlice and Hor ovsk T n. The folklore festival organized every year in DomaÏlice (sub-region Chodsko) is an event of utmost cultural importance for the region. The largest university in PlzeÀ Region is Západoãeská univerzita (West Bohemia University) in PlzeÀ, with seven colleges offering courses in engineering, science, and humanities, as well as new disciplines of applied sciences. There is also a local faculty of Medicine belonging to Prague s UK. Private universities are not of much importance in PlzeÀ. One of them, Vysoká kola v Plzni (University of PlzeÀ) is focused on health care. PlzeÀ and its outskirts have always belonged to the most industrialized areas in the country, mainly thanks to rich deposits of raw materials. The machinery sector in the city suffered heavily when koda Works was weakened by voucher privatization. Now the factory is being restructured. Foreign investments are flowing in the electronics, machinery and food industries. Lumber and car making industries have their importance here as well. Thematic industrial clusters are not well developed yet. CzechInvest agency is currently conducting studies on possible clusters in mechatronics (mechanics and electronics). This region s potential depends on its advantageous position in the western part of the country. Other promising assets include the finishing of a circumferential highway in PlzeÀ in 2006, sufficient supplies of raw materials for the manufacturing industry, the status of the local university, qualified workforce, good conditions for tourism in mountain areas and numerous landmarks and natural monuments.

KARLOVY VARY REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA KARLOVY VARY REGION BASIC DATA Karlovy Vary Region is situated on the western boundary with Saxony and Bavaria. It is neighboring only with two other Czech regions, Ústeck and PlzeÀ. The region consists of three districts: Cheb, Karlovy Vary and Sokolov. Its area on January 1, 2006 was 3,315 km 2 (4.2 % of the country s territory, 12th largest region in Czech Republic). Only Liberec Region and Prague are less spacious. With 304,602 inhabitants (3.0 % of the country s population) on December 31, 2006 Karlovarsk was the third least populated region in the Czech Republic. There are only 132 communities in the region (the lowest number in the country). Karlovy Vary, with a population of 50,691, is regional capital. There are 13 towns with populations over 5,000 in the region. Tourism is the most important economical sector in the region. Spas in its four towns (Karlovy Vary, Franti kovy Láznû, Mariánské Láznû, Jáchymov) provide for about 44 % of all balneal health care in Czech Republic and over 70 % of their clientele come from abroad. Therefore the region is easily keeping itself on the top of statistics with 7.6 days as the foreign visitor s average length of stay, Prague being the second (4.1 days). Accommodation and gastronomy provide for 4 percent of gross added value created in the region. Also in this respect Karlovy Vary Region is number one in the country, ahead of Prague (3.1 %). Of interest for tourists are the castles in Cheb, Loket, KynÏvart, Ostrov and Beãov nad Teplou. The mountain range of Kru né hory is well suited for outdoor sports. The vicinity of the Kru nohorská ski highway is known for its large offer of accommodation. In the last several decades there have been numerous golf courses built in the region. Large parts of the region are parts of the sanctuary Slavkovsk les. There are many bicycle paths, as well. Some universities from other parts of the country have established their affiliates in the Karlovy Vary Region. The economic college of Západoãeská universita (West Bohemia University) in Cheb is the most important among them. The importance of âzu Prague College in Cheb and UK Medical College in Mariánské Láznû is marginal. Key disciplines are tourism, balneology, and third market economy. A private university (V Karlovy Vary) provides a bachelor degree program for students of law. Karlovy Vary Region shows extreme figures in many areas of statistics. The reason is mainly its anomalous economic structure fully focused on tourism. Besides ceramic manufacturing the most developed industries in the region are lumber, textiles and chemistry. Lately there was a certain growth in automobile spare parts production. The industrial clusters that are well established here are related to the production of musical instruments. CzechInvest agency is surveying possibilities for the building of clusters in tableware and renewable sources of energy. Karlovy Vary Region s potential is based on self-sufficiency in raw materials for traditional industries (balneology, ceramic manufacturing, and lumber). There are many entrepreneurs in the region, a very high rate of employees in the sector of services, the highest concentration of spas in Czech Republic, one of the largest accommodation capacities and the longest average stay of foreign tourists. A high speed transport connecting Karlovy Vary to the capital (III. railway corridor and a motorway) is being built, the number of flights at Karlovy Vary Airport is to be enlarged and the age pattern of the local population is rather positive.

ÚSTÍ REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA ÚSTÍ REGION ABOUT REGION The Ústí Region in North Bohemia stretches along the border with Saxony. Its neighbors within limits of the Czech Republic are the regions of Karlovy Vary, Liberec, Central Bohemia and PlzeÀ. The region is divided in seven districts: Dûãín, Chomutov, Litomûfiice, Louny, Most, Teplice and Ústí nad Labem. The region s area on January 1, 2006 was 5,335 km 2 (6.8 % of Czech Republic territory), the seventh largest in the country. Population on December 31, 2006 amounted to 823,265 inhabitants (8.0 % of the country s population, number five among all regions). There are 354 communities in Ústeck kraj (5.7 % of all communities in Czech Republic). The regional capital Ústí nad Labem has 94,565 inhabitants. There are 26 towns with a population over 5,000 in the Ústí Region. The Ústí Region is full of historical landmarks, none of which have been put on the UNESCO list of World Heritage. The site with the most potential for getting on the list is Terezín, once a fortress and later a Jewish ghetto. Urban sanctuaries are found in KadaÀ, Litomûfiice, Ú tûk and Îatec. The rotunda of St. George on top of íp Mountain belongs to the symbols of the region. Other valuable monuments include castles (Duchcov, Ploskovice) and monasteries (Doksany, Osek). National park âeské v carsko (Czech Switzerland) abounds with natural monuments. There are also protected landscape areas Labské pískovce (Labe Sandstones), âeské stfiedohofií (mountains) and LuÏické hory (mountains). There are many bicycle paths passing through the region, and a long cross country skiing track Kru nohorská ski-highway is running along the Kru né hory range. In mining town Most there is quite an uncommon building to be seen a Gothic church that had to be pushed away by half a mile in 1975 to clear the way for bucket excavators. Most also offers a large range of sporting facilities that include a car race circuit, a horse racing track and an aqua park. The most important university in the Ústí Region is Jan Evangelista Purkynû in Ústí nad Labem (UJEP) with five colleges focused mainly on pedagogy, humanities and partially also on artistic studies. For private universities there is an affiliate of The Institute of Finance and Administration in Most. In 2004, research and development regional expenses per capita amounted to Kã 621 (13th place, second to last in the country). Only 0.13 % of employees took part in development and research (also 13th place for the region). The Ústí Region, with all the area below the Kru né hory mountain range, is an industrial site of international importance. There is a great tradition in construction, mining, power engineering, glass blowing and chemical industries. Agriculture also has its importance in the region mainly hop farming, fruit production and viticulture. There is no important industrial clusters working in the area. CzechInvest agency s surveys are focused on possibilities in line of compostable plastics. The potential of the Ústí Region is based, among other things, on raw materials in abundance for supplying local sectors of power engineering and construction. Thanks to its position, the region is well connected to main transportation arteries both at home and abroad. The railway corridor there is finished and serving, the highway D8 copying the road E55 is under construction. The chemistry industry is traditionally strong, the fertile soil is promising (and giving) prosperity to local viticulture, and there is much potential in skiing, mountain trekking and tourism bound to local historic landmarks.

LIBEREC REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA LIBEREC REGION BASIC DATA The Liberec Region is located in North Bohemia on the borders of Saxony and Poland, neighboring the regions Hradec Králové, Central Bohemia and Ústí nad Labem. The region of Liberec is divided among four districts: âeská Lípa, Jablonec nad Nisou, Liberec and Semily. It is the smallest region of the Czech Republic. Its area as confirmed on 1.1. 2006 was only 3,163 km 2 or 4.0 % of the national territory. On December 31, 2006 the region had 430,774 inhabitants, which was 4.2 % of the population of the Czech Republic, one of the smallest among all regions in the country. There are 215 communities in the region, which is 3.4 % of all communities in the country, only the region Karlovy Vary is behind Libereck in this respect. Liberec (population 98,781) is the regional capital. There are only 15 towns with a population exceeding 5,000 in the region. Although Liberec Region is the smallest region in the Czech Republic, there are five protected landscape areas (among others: Jizerské hory, âesk ráj, Kokofiínsko) and a part of the National park Krkono e. The Liberec Region is remarkable for the density of recreational facilities built on its territory, mainly in âesk ráj and around the lake Máchovo jezero. There are ideal conditions for winter sports in the region, mainly in western Krkono e and in Jizerské hory with Jizerská magistrála, a ski highway running along the main range of the mountains. Even Liberec is an important winter sport center. The capital of the region is the venue of the Nordic ski World championship in 2009. No landmark from the list of UNESCO can be found on the territory of this region but rock towns in âesk ráj are among candidates. As for castles, the most important are Hrub Rohozec, Bezdûz, Zákupy and Sychrov. Glass blowing museums in Nov Bor, Kamenick enov and Îelezn Brod, as well as the Krkono ské museum in Jilemnice, display local traditions to visitors. The zoo, botany garden and aquacentrum in Liberec belong to the most visited places. There is just one university in the Liberec Region, the Technical University of Liberec (TUL) with six colleges. Art and Architecture College and Mechatronics College have certain importance, exceeding the regional boundaries, while a textile engineering college keeps the very top international level. The only school on this level for textile technologies in Czech Republic has a large share in research and development in Europe. In 2004 research and development investment in the region per capita reached Kã 2,029 ( 74.80) giving jobs to 0.39 % of local employees. In this respect, the Liberec Region is sixth place in the Czech Republic. This region has the highest proportion of manufacturing in the Czech Republic. Glassworks and trinket factories are among the largest enterprises here and there is a big inflow of foreign investment to the local car making industry. The importance of the textile industry is of course very high. Another primary sector is the lumber industry and strong clusters of glassmaking and technical textiles production have been here for a long time. The region s potential is in cluster initiatives growing from local traditional activities, supplies of raw materials for glassmaking and the construction industry, good road connection to the capital, research potential of universities in the area of technical textiles, both natural and cultural landmarks, good condition for development of winter sports, a high number of frontier - transit points and a high density of recreation facilities.

It neighbors with the regions Hradec Karálové, Central Bohemia, South Bohemia, South Moravia, Olomouc and Vysoãina. The region is divided into four districts: Chrudim, Pardubice, Svitavy and Ústí nad Orlicí. Its area is 4,518 km 2 (valid data taken on January 1, 2006) or 5.7 % of the national territory. The region is the 10th largest in the country. On December 31, 2006 there were 507,751 inhabitants which make it the 12th most populated among regions of the Czech Republic. There are 452 communities (7.2 % of all communities in the country, 6th place among all regions). The city of Pardubice, the regional capital, has a population of 88,316. There are 17 towns and cities with a population exceeding 5,000 in the region. Large protected landscape areas, Orlické hory, Îelezné hory and a part of Îdárské vrchy, are located in the territory of the Pardubice region and they are frequently visited by tourists. The vicinity of reservoir Seã is most visited in summer; otherwise lots of facilities serve mainly for purposes of congressional tourism. Agricultural tourism, focusing on horse breeding, is also very popular in the Pardubice region. Velká pardubická Steeplechase and Zlatá pfiílba (Golden Helmet) dirt track race are sporting events of international importance, taking place in Pardubice every year. The historic downtowns in Pardubice, Moravská Tfiebová and Litomy l were declared urban sanctuaries. The castle in Litomy l is the only landmark in the region placed on UNESCO list of world heritage. In spite of this, the region is lagging behind all others is some areas of tourism, i.e. number of accommodation facilities, their capacities and the average number of nights a visitor spends in the region. Univerzita Pardubice, with five colleges, is the largest university in the region. The colleges of transportation and chemical technologies are focused on traditional disciplines and their importance exceeds the regional level. The faculty of restoration in Litomy l is the only one in the country. Research and development expenses in 2004 reached Kã 2,700 per capita in the Pardubice Region with 0.46 % of local employees working in research and development field both parameters put the region in 4th place among all regions in the country. It means actually Kã 1,346 million were spent (5th place in the Czech Republic) and 2,310 people were working in R&D (6th place in Czech Republic). Farming has a more than average share in the regional GDP, mainly as plant production is concerned. Electrotechnics, chemistry and machinery firms are the most important employers in the region. Industrial plastics and nanotechnology clusters have been created in the region. At present, CzechInvest agency is studying possibilities for building clusters in the areas of tool making and electrotechnics. The potential of the region lies in: the tradition of the chemical industry, the focus of local universities on local lines of business, the location of the city of Pardubice on I. and III. railway corridors, the finishing of the motorway D11 and the building of a new speed communication further on, development of agro - tourism, natural and cultural landmarks and eventual attempts to extend transportation by riverboats.

VYSOâINA REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA VYSOâINA REGION ABOUT REGION The Vysoãina Region is situated in the southern half of the country, astride over the boundary between both the historic countries of the Czech crown. It borders with regions Central Bohemia, Pardubice, South Moravia and South Bohemia. The region is divided among five districts: HavlíãkÛv Brod, Jihlava, Pelhfiimov, Tfiebíã and Îìár nad Sázavou. Its area is 6,796 km 2 (January 1, 2006), 8.6 % of the national territory, making it the 5th largest region in the country. On December 31, 2006 there were 511,645 inhabitants (5 % of the population of the Czech Republic, 11th most populated region in the country). There are 704 communities in the Vysoãina Region, 11.3 % of all communities in the Czech Republic. In this respect the region of the Vysoãina Region assumes 2nd place in the country but its communities are mostly very small. Jihlava, with population of 50,916, is the regional capital. There are 18 towns with populations exceeding 5,000 in the Vysoãina Region. There are two protected landscape areas Îìárské vrchy and Îelezné hory in the Vysoãina Region. The region is well suited for tourism throughout the year. The best conditions for skiing can be found around Nové Mûsto na Moravû, the venue of a regular World Cup cross-country ski race Zlatá lyïe Vysoãiny (Golden ski of the Highlands). Thanks to its well preserved nature, the region is a coveted area of agro- and eco-tourism. There are three UNESCO registered landmarks. The oldest registration is that of the historic center of the town of Telã, and then there is a traditional pilgrimage venue in the church of St. Jan Nepomuck in Zelená hora. The third item in the region was put on the UNESCO list only in 2003: Jewish Town and basilica of St. Prokop in Tfiebíã. In Jihlava, Tfiebíã and Telã, there are also urban sanctuaries. Public universities were lacking for a long time in the Vysoãina Region. A remedy for this deficiency was found in 2004 when the College of Polytechnics in Jihlava was made available for the public. The offer of studies, at first rather poor (finances and tourism only) was enlarged in 2006-2007 with information and machinery, which are key lines of business in the Jihlava region. For private universities there is Západomoravská vysoká kola (West Moravia University) in Tfiebíã, focused exclusively on IT disciplines at present. Many businesses in the region are contributing to scholarships for students in order to keep an educated workforce within the region. In 2004 expenses on research and development in the Vysoãina Region reached Kã 1,023 per capita and 0.15 % of all employees worked in research and development. Both these parameters put the Vysoãina Region to 12th place among the regions of the Czech Republic. Although the Vysoãina Region were focused mostly on farming and forestry for a long time, there are industries developing there. Among the most important industries are machinery, energy, production of parts for car making factories and partially also the food industry and glassmaking. Cluster development conditions are more difficult then elsewhere in a way. CzechInvest agency is surveying possibilities to build up a wood-working cluster. Possibilities for new clusters in the machinery field are to be studied soon. Potential of the region: traditional farming production, optimal conditions for production of selected crops, transportation lines of European importance, placement of new machinery businesses, gradual development of universities, UNESCO World heritage landmarks, developing eco-tourism.

SOUTH MORAVIA REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA SOUTH MORAVIA REGION ABOUT REGION South Moravia Region is located on the boundaries with Austria and Slovakia. It borders with regions Highlands, Pardubice, Olomouc, Zlín and South Bohemia. The region is divided among seven districts: Blansko, Brno-mûsto (City of Brno) Brno-venkov (Brno-countryside) Bfieclav, Hodonín, Vy kov and Znojmo. Its area is 7,196 km 2 (January 1, 2006), 9.1 % of the national territory, making it the 4th largest region in the country. On December 31, 2006 there were 1,132,563 inhabitants (11 % of the population of the Czech Republic, 4th most populated region in the country). The South Moravian capital, Brno (366,680 inhabitants), is the second largest city in the Czech Republic. There are 22 towns and cities in the region with populations exceeding 5,000. South Moravia belongs to the most valuable areas of nature in the country. Protected landscape areas Pálava and Bílé Karpaty were given the status of UNESCO biosphere reserves; landscape protected area Moravsk kras (Moravia karst) is one of most remarkable karst areas in Europe. Also we should not forget the National park Podyjí. Brno is a city of international fairs, and is well known throughout the continent. There are two UNESCO landmarks in the region: The complex of Lednice-Valtice belongs to largest artificially built-up and groomed landscapes in Europe. Villa Tugendhat in Brno is a magnificent piece of functional architecture from the period between the wars. An ancient Slavonice fort excavated by Mikulãice is also trying to find its place on the UNE- SCO list of World heritage. There are urban sanctuaries in Brno, Mikulov and Znojmo. Also the battlefield at Austerlitz is very popular among tourists. Brno is the second largest center for universities in the Czech Republic. Masarykova univerzita (MU) with nine colleges offers studies in pedagogy, medicine, information, humanities and natural sciences. Vysoké uãení technické, the Brno University of Technology (VUT) has eight colleges. Apart from technical disciplines, it offers studies in economy and fine arts. Janáãkova akademie múzick ch umûní (Janáãek Academy of Music and Performing Arts in Brno, JAMU) is another university focusing on artistic areas. Mendelova zemûdûlská a lesnická univerzita (Mendel University of farming and forestry, MZLU) offers studies in traditional South Moravian specializations including gardening and viticulture. There are also veterinary and pharmaceutical universities (VFU) and a Defense University in Brno, the latter of which has a branch in Vy kov as well. There are seven private universities in the region. Some institutes of the Academy of sciences (AV âr) are also placed in Brno: the Institute of Biophysics, the Institute of Physics of Materials, and the Institute of Analytical chemistry. In 2004 of all employees in the region 0.91 % worked in research and development, which puts the region to the 2nd place in the Czech Republic. Both industry and farming maintain their importance in South Moravia Region, and the service sector is growing stronger. Even lesser businesses are getting more successful in machinery. The most developed cluster initiatives are in furniture production, biotechnologies and bioinformatics. CzechInvest agency is surveying possibilities of typical clusters for development in viticulture, aircraft production and the garment industry. Potential of the region lies in the large number of its universities; there is a high proportion of means being spent on research and development, and great focus on technical specializations. Two modern trans-european transportation corridors are crossing through the territory of South Moravia Region has motorway connections to other countries as well as to other Czech regions. Clean air, local landmarks and biosphere reserves of UNESCO are also of certain importance. There is a long tradition in viticulture, good conditions for biking tourism and the reputation of Brno as a city of international fairs.

OLOMOUC REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA OLOMOUC REGION ABOUT REGION The Olomouc Region is stretches from central Moravia across the Jeseníky mountains north up to the frontier of Poland. On other sides it borders regions Moravia- Silesia, Zlín, South Moravia and Pardubice. The region is divided among five districts: Jeseník, Olomouc, Prostûjov, Pfierov and umperk. Its area is 5,267 km 2 (January 1, 2006), 6.7 % of the national territory, making it the 8th largest region in the country. On December 31, 2006 there were 639,894 inhabitants (6.2 % of the population of the Czech Republic, the 6th most populated region in the country). Its 397 communities make up for 6.4 % of all communities in the country. Olomouc, the regional capital with a population of 100,168 is the 5th largest city in the Czech Republic. There are 13 towns and cities with populations exceeding 5,000 in the region. Protected landscape areas include the Jeseníky Mountains, Litovelské Pomoraví and Hranická propast and they belong to the most valuable natural monuments. The most visited castles are Bouzov, Helf t n, ternberk, Námû È na Hané or Velké Losiny. A number of folklore organizations take care of preserving the local tradition in the Haná region, taking part in various festivals. Svat Kopeãek at Olomouc is an important pilgrimage venue. The Jeseníky Mountains form about a third of the region s territory in its northern part. There are good conditions for skiing, cross country and alpine, as well as for summer outdoor activities. There are over 70 biking paths in the region. The urban sanctuaries in the region are at Olomouc and Lipník nad Beãvou. A 35 meter high pillar of Saint Trinity in Olomouc City is the only regional landmark registered on the UNESCO list of the world heritage but the historic paper mill in Velké Losiny is also trying to obtain the registration. Local spas are also of great importance for tourism. Jeseník was among the first of several places in the world applying hydrotherapy. Other spas in the region are Lipová láznû, Teplice nad Beãvou, Velké Losiny and Bludov. The second oldest university in the Czech Republic, Univerzita Palackého (UP) in Olomouc, with its seven colleges, is the largest university in the region. Studies available there include medicine, theology, philosophy, law, pedagogy and sports. Possibilities to study information and some of the natural sciences make up somewhat for the deficiency of technical studies. A branch of Vysoká kola báàská (Mining University) in umperk is oriented mostly on studies in the line of machinery. As for private universities there is Vysoká kola logistiky (Logistics University) in Pfierov and Moravská vysoká kola (Moravian University) oriented mainly on informatics and management. In 2004 expenses on research and development in the Region Olomouc reached Kã 1,660 per capita (9th place in the Czech Republic) and 0.39 % of all employees worked in research and development (5th place in the Czech Republic). Farming provides for more than the average share of the regional GDP (mainly sugar beet and hops), as well as the processing industry. Garment, machinery and electronics industries are of the utmost importance. There are clusters in the car making and garment industries, as well as nanotechnologies and information technologies in the Olomouc Region. As further development potential is concerned, there is fertile soil in the Olomouc Region, good railway connections (corridors I. and III.), the second oldest university in the country, clean air, a large number of historic landmarks, many folklore festivals, mountain areas usable for tourism throughout the year, and a large network of biking trails.

MORAVIA SILESIA REGION BASIC ECONOMIC & DEMOGRAPHIC DATA MORAVIA-SILESIA REGION BASIC DATA The Moravia-Silesia Region lies in northern Moravia along the Polish and Slovak borders. Its other neighbors are the regions of Olomouc and Zlín. Moravia-Silesia is divided among six districts: Bruntál, Fr dek-místek, Karviná, Nov Jiãín, Opava and Ostrava. Its area is 5,427 km 2 (January 1, 2006), 6.9 % of the national territory, making it the 6th largest region in the country. Moravia-Silesia is the most populated region in Czech Republic. On December 31, 2006 there were 1,249,290 inhabitants (12.1 % of the population of the Czech Republic). Inhabitants are concentrated in rather large towns and cities; therefore the region is highly urbanized. Ostrava, the regional capital with a population of 3,096,098 is the third largest city in the Czech Republic. There are 31 towns and cities with populations exceeding 5,000 in the region. There are three protected landscape areas in the region, Jeseníky, Poodfií and Beskydy (the largest protected landscape area in the Czech Republic). There are downhill pistes, cross country skiing tracks and hiking tracks in sufficient quantity in the Jeseníky and the Beskydy mountains; tourists are going there in all seasons. There are three urban sanctuaries in Moravia-Silesia: Nov Jiãín, Pfiíbor and tramberk. The most visited castles are Hradec nad Moravicí, Kravafie, Sovinec and Hukvaldy. None of the region s landmarks are registered on the UNESCO list of world heritage but the complex of former mines in Ostrava is on a list of candidates. There are three universities in Moravia-Silesia. Vysoká kola báàská-technická univerzita Ostrava (a mining university, V B-Technical university of Ostrava) with seven colleges. New specializations are being added to traditional studies of this region (mining, geology, metallurgy), including nanotechnologies and mechatronics. Ostravská univerzita (OU) offers studies in both natural sciences and humanities; also pedagogy and art. Slezská univerzita (Silesian University - SU) is divided between Opava and Karviná. Philosophy and natural science is studied in Opava, the business and commerce college is seated in Karviná. There is a similarly oriented Vysoká kola podnikání (Business University) in Ostrava. In 2004 expenses on research and development in Moravia-Silesia reached Kã 1,759 per capita (8th place in the Czech Republic) and 0.30 % of all employees worked in research and development (11th place in the Czech Republic). Moravia-Silesia Region is an area with a long industrial tradition, but nowadays it is in profound decline. The basic sector of activities here consists of metallurgy, mining, energy and heavy industry. Chemistry and electronics industries are other important fields of business. A high number of cluster initiatives are a phenomenon typical for Moravia-Silesia. The most developed clusters are in the fields of renewable sources of energy, machinery, car making and wood working. New technological clusters were founded in the construction industry, ICT and selected specializations of the chemical industry. The region s potential is in the rich supplies of quality raw materials for the energy and the construction industry as well as a plentitude of qualified workers for selected industries. There is the second largest national airport in the region and two modern railway corridors. Local life environment has been improving substantially, and mountain areas are suitable for further development of tourism in all seasons and cycling.

Otherwise it borders with regions South Moravia, Olomouc and Moravia-Silesia. It is divided among four districts: KromûfiíÏ, Uherské Hradi tû, Vsetín and Zlín. Its area is 3,963 km 2 (January 1, 2006), 5.0 % of the national territory, making it the 11th largest region in the country. On December 31, 2006 there were 589,839 inhabitants (5.7 % of the population of the Czech Republic, the 8th most populated region in the country). Its 304 communities make up for 4.9 % of all communities in the country. Zlín, with a population of 78,122, is the regional capital. There are 20 towns and cities with populations exceeding 5,000 in the region. The Zlín Region is mountainous and very indented. Parts of two protected landscape areas are stretching to its territory, Beskydy and Bílé Karpaty. These mountains are sought after by tourists both in summer and in winter. Popularity in folk traditions is typical for this region. From among folklore events, taking place every year, there is Haná days in Chropynû, the Ride of Kings in Vlãnov, or Slivovitz Vintage days in Vizovice. Tourists also like the large area of the Vala ské museum in nature (RoÏnov pod Radho tûm). There has also been growing interest in BaÈa s boating channel in the last several years. Religion has an important place in the life of local inhabitants. Velehrad belongs to the most important pilgrimage venues in the Czech Republic. The most valuable architectonic monuments are concentrated in KromûfiíÏ, which is also the only town in the region with an urban sanctuary. The castle with its gardens is the only landmark registered on the UNESCO list in the region of Zlín. Luhaãovice is the most important spa in the region and this town is also trying to get to the UNESCO list of the world heritage. Tomá BaÈa University in Zlín (UTB) has five colleges with specializations in economy, arts, chemistry and informatics. A branch of the Mining University is located in Uhersk Brod, offering studies in machinery and the local specializations of firearms and ammunition. The European Polytechnic Institute is the oldest private university in Moravia. Seated in Kunovice, it offers studies in economy, management and informatics. It has a branch in Hodonín as well.
