At the 32nd Kopaonik Business Forum, the company confirmed its leadership position in renewable energy projects and highlighted its good examples of circular economy practices.
MK Group once again emphasized the importance of investing in renewable energy projects at the Kopaonik Business Forum, while also showcasing its best practices to highlight the significance of the circular economy in today’s business environment.
Verica Teofilović, Director of Finance and Risk at MK Group, spoke on the panel titled “Why Circular Economy is the Business Opportunity of Our Time,” where she emphasized the importance of the circular economy in contemporary business and presented exceptional examples and best practices from companies within the MK Agri-Food division.
“The circular economy represents a key strategic advantage for MK Group, providing resilience to market changes and strengthening competitiveness. The digitalization of agriculture has brought us more precise resource management and increased productivity, while energy efficiency has resulted in cost reductions and long-term business sustainability. Sustainable food processing ensures more efficient use of raw materials, waste reduction, and compliance with environmental standards. All these practices contribute to resource optimization,” stated Verica Teofilović.

He conveyed that global warming significantly impacts businesses, especially in agriculture and tourism, sectors where MK Group is active.
