The Italian Chamber of Commerce in Bulgaria (CCIB) will participate in the National Forum “Skills Panorama 2026”, taking place on 5 November 2026 at Arena Asarel in Panagyurishte, under the motto “Traditional Professions Meet the Professions of the Future.”

The initiative is organised by the Human Resources Development Centre (HRDC), in cooperation with Panagyurishte Municipality, the Bulgarian Industrial Capital Association (BICA) and Teach for Bulgaria.

The Forum will bring together representatives of the business community, public institutions, vocational schools, educational organisations and young people, providing a platform for discussions on the evolving labour market and the skills needed to address future challenges.

Key topics will include technological innovation, digitalisation, robotics, artificial intelligence and cooperation between education and business, with particular attention to vocational education and emerging professional opportunities.

CCIB’s participation reflects its commitment to strengthening economic and institutional cooperation between Italy and Bulgaria, promoting skills development and encouraging dialogue between educational institutions and the business community.

The Forum will also offer opportunities to exchange experiences, expand professional networks and explore new areas of collaboration.

We look forward to seeing you in Panagyurishte on 5 November!
