STAR region is an example not only for the Czech Republic. There is a research-based ecosystem in which we are very strong in the long term (especially – but not only – lasers), with the interest of new companies and large foreign partners, supported by the local community. Just beyond the borders of Prague, something is created that can bring the whole world to the Czech Republic.
