THE CLASSIFICATIONS OF THE BULGARIAN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY TOP-100 LEADING FIRMS AND HOLDINGS IN THE ECONOMY OF BULGARIA DURING YEAR 2010 The building of Sofia Commercial and Industrial Chamber 2, Slavianska Str. built in 1914 DEAR FRIENDS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS, This year BCCI and the system of regional chambers of commerce and industry mark the 116th anniversary of their establishment. Bulgarian entrepreneurs have once again demon- strated their spirit of initiative and endurance, their creativity and diligence, like they have done so many times in our country’s newest history. Average managerial skills are no longer enough for companies to survive, and even less so to gain leading positions in the sector and region. Bulgarian economy, which until recently was considered a rather tempestuous and insecure part of the world economic ocean, has gradually become an island of stability due to the moderate and mostly predictable economic policy. For BCCI’s members that combine innova- tion with hard work, the term “crisis” does not mean a labyrinth in which to get lost, but has a stimulating and encouraging effect. As we have noted on multiple occasions, after 2008 the market economy entered a new phase of harsher conditions with reduced demand and much more severe competition, therefore more efforts will be required to achieve success than were needed immediately after the changes in 1989. For the 13th time, we present to your attention the companies leading in the economy of Bul- garia. They produce 81,5 % of the country’s Gross Domestic Product. The classifications that our analysts present to your attention illustrate the positive changes occurring in the Bulgarian economy, the successful management, the realistic assessment of the economic situation, and most importantly - how to survive and prosper in an environment of entire national economies collapsing. BCCI’s members worked even harder and often ended up earning less than before, but al- ways with plenty of ambition and perseverance. That is why they not only survived, but ranked among the best in the 2010 “Top-100”. The companies are classified according to some more dynamic criteria: “Alteration of goods and services sales revenue”; “Return on BGN 100 equity”; “Profit margin on 100 BGN sales revenue”. The prerequisite is for the companies to end the year 2010 with a profit and net sales revenue New building of the BCCI exceeding BGN 100 000 compared with the ones in 2009. Sofia,9, Iskar Str. Due to our proven matrix, monopolists that need more transparency in order not to distort the market, were once again excluded from the classification. We express our gratitude to all companies ranked in the classification and wish the others to be even more motivated to find their place and deserve leading positions in the next edition of “Top 100” when we will report the 2011 results. Tsvetan Simeonov BCCI President GReening business through the Enterprise Europe Network The GREEN project starts from the need to improve the envi- ronmental performances of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Europe. The project supports the Enterprise Europe Network in providing basic environmental services to SMEs from the food industry and the manufacturing of building materials sec- tors. Over 310 000 companies and 4 million people are employed in these two sectors at a European level. GREEN proposes a network of local systems to coordinate Envi- ronmental Service Providers (ESP) in order to give SMEs access to free and low cost environmental services thanks also to the support of local administrations, SMEs associations and relevant value chain stakeholders. The partnership is made of experienced Chambers of Commerce and Industry (of local, regional and national levels) and technology and research centres from Italy, Romania, Greece, Bulgaria, Slo- venia, Montenegro, Serbia, Macedonia, Turkey and Croatia. Each partner will create a task force of ESPs that will support them in the technical decisions and in the methodological approach. The strategic objectives of the GREEN project are: To contribute to the improvement of environmental performances of SMEs in Europe To support the Enterprise Europe Network in tackling environmental issues in the food and construction sectors. Project duration: 2010-2012 For further information, please contact: Sabina Nikolova [email protected]; tel.: (+359 2) 8117 505 Eleonora Carnasa [email protected]; tel.: (+359 2) 8117 417 PROmotion and coordination of environmental research in Central and Eastern Europe for a sustainable Development with the support of the Enterprise Europe Network The PROCEED project is based on the uneven and unbalanced participation of EU member countries to environmental research projects financed by the EU Framework Programmes. The statistics show that the vast majority of participants come from Western European countries (Germany, Italy, United Kingdom, France and Holland). Most of the Central and Eastern European Member States have lower participation rate in the European research projects. The project is targeted to support, expand and improve the work of public and private researchers from Central and Eastern European countries. The partnership consists of 15 organizations from 12 countries. The concept of the project is to exploit the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), an existing and efficient network of Technology Centres, Chambers of Commerce, technicians, Universities and other private and public Research Centres present in all European countries and beyond, to create a steady communication network for environmental research results and practices originating in Central and Eastern European countries. Expected outcomes: improved uptake of environmental research results new technology transfer agreements better synergies with existing networks and projects supporting the coordination of Environmental research activities in Europe better communication and better understanding of research results by policy makers improved knowledge of intellectual property issues a Social Network where EU researchers can share publications and ideas for new cooperation improved services to enterprises by the members of the Enterprise Europe Network.

  • The Central Regions and the Sofia Agglomeration Area
    Maria Shishmanova THE CENTRAL REGIONS AND THE SOFIA AGGLOMERATION AREA Abstract. The research presents central regions in Bulgaria using taxonometric method with relevant conclusions. Each municipality in central regions is particularly examined by the elaborated methodic materials. The developed agglomeration areas are situated in the central regions. Sofia agglomeration area is presented using General Spatial Plan of Sofia municipality and Municipal Development Plan (MDP) of Sofia metropolitan municipality. It is set out the vision of development and its priorities, objectives and measures. Key words: central regions, agglomeration areas, Sofia agglomeration area, General Spatial Plan, Municipal Development Plan. Introduction The Central regions comprise 45 percent of the Bulgarian territory. The agglomeration areas are formed in them. The present study examines the development of the Sofia agglomeration area – a metropolis in the central regions of Bulgaria. The agglomeration areas are formed within the range of the central regions in Bulgaria – 6 agglomeration areas with a center – a large city, 30 agglomeration areas with a center – a medium-sized town. Six of the agglomeration areas are formations with more than three municipalities, five of them are with three municipalities each, ten are with 2 municipalities and the rest 15 are autonomous municipalities with an established core. These areas represent the backbone of the economy and social and human potential of the country. They have the highest degree of competitiveness and attractiveness for investment and innovation. Eighty eight municipalities with a total population of 5885455 people1 are included within the scope of the agglomeration areas, which constitutes 77.4 percent of the population of the country.

  • The Economy of the Tyle State
    SAVAGE BUSINESS – The Economy of the Tyle State One would imagine that an invasion by hundreds of thousands of barbarians would have a catastrophic effect on a region’s economy. However, this presumption has been challenged in recent years by the archaeological and numismatic data emerging from the territory which fell under the control of the ‘barbarian’ Tyle state in eastern Thrace during the 3rd c. BC. The traditional description of the Celtic tribes who arrived in this area has been one of ‘thirsty savages’ or ‘gangs of mercenaries’ (latest Emilov 2007, 2010), and we have been repeatedly informed that ‘their aim was not to settle, but money and booty which could be aquired in different ways … by attacking wealthy cities, and by ravaging the countryside’ (Nixon 1977, cited by Mitchell 1993; most recently Emilov 2010). However, repeating a simplistic stereotype does not make it true, particularly when the depiction of a culture directly contradicts all the available archaeological and historical evidence. In this case the facts tell a rather surprising tale – a barbarian invasion that brought political stability and economic prosperity in its wake. Eastern Thrace – 3rd c. BC THE ‘BARBARIAN BOOM’ Recent archaeological evidence has clearly shown that no destruction accompanied the Celtic migration at the beginning of the 3rd c. BC and, even more surprisingly, in none of the regions which fell within the limits of the Celtic Tyle kingdom can an economic downturn be detected (Lazarov 2010: 110). Indeed, it is precisely in the wake of the establishment of the Celtic state that the main Hellenistic economic centres in eastern Thrace and the Black Sea coast such as Kabyle, Mesambria and Odessos flourished and trade boomed.

The survey was conducted in the period between 2014 and 2020. After prior informed consent, 709 local residents from 32 settlements were interviewed. The interviews with the local population were conducted using the "face to face" technique with the help of pre-prepared original questionnaires. The study presents quantitative ethnobotanical information on the use of medicinal plants in the study area. The results were analyzed using quantitative indices: Respondent Consensus Ratio (FIC), Loyalty Level Index (FL) and Significance Value Index (IVs). A total of 332 species of medicinal plants belonging to 250 genera of 90 families have been identified for the region of the Northern Black Sea Coast. The largest number of citations are registered for the use of medicinal plants for culinary purposes and for use in human medicine. The use of medicinal plants in other household applications has been studied. Keywords: FIC, FL, IVs, Northern Black Sea coast Introduction Globally, due to the trend of globalization, traditional knowledge, including that of medicinal plants, is declining and some of it is irretrievably lost.
