The city’s technical university is the largest provider of qualified engineers in the country. With its strong ties to business, and long experience of servicing the region’s largest players, KTU is an essential resource for companies operating in the area.
Kaunas offers perfect logistics access by road, rail and air. Kaunas Aiport is also the largest cargo airport in the country. Kaunas SEZ, a hub of logistics and advanced maufacturing, is conveniently connected to the airport.
As a centre for the production of top talent in the fields of the humanities, the social sciences and IT, Kaunas is the ideal destination for SSC development. Internationally acknowledged as CEE’s “Emerging city of the year”, Kaunas holds great untapped potential for growth.
