Prishtina, 13.08.2025 – Caretaker Deputy Minister of Economy, Getoar Mjeku, and the Mayor of Gjilan Municipality, Alban Hyseni, have signed a co-funding agreement worth €500,000 for the implementation of the “Smart City” project. This strategic partnership will enable the digital transformation of the city of Gjilan, through targeted investments in modern infrastructure.
