In the last two decades, following years of conflict, hundreds of thousands of young highly educated people have left Serbia looking for a brighter future elsewhere. But that trend has slowed with the mushrooming of digital technologies and innovation start-ups in Belgrade. Serbia鈥檚 innovative programmers specialise in quirky solutions, taking 鈥榣ess digital roads travelled鈥�.

Click鈥檚 special programme from Belgrade, co-produced with Sne啪ana 膯ur膷i膰, starts by looking at the innovations that came out of the radical radio station, B92鈥檚 internet streaming during the war.

The programme focuses on the Silicon Valley-esque Science Technology Park (STP). Located in the peaceful forest of Zvezdara, the Science Technology Park was built during Milo拧evi膰鈥檚 times, and remained a white elephant until recently. Today STP is home to more than sixty innovative high-tech development companies.

Click also hears about the continued centrality of the inventor, Nikola Tesla to Serbia鈥檚 culture. Gareth Mitchell is joined by Tamara Vu膷enovi膰 from Radio Belgrade to explore how tech is transforming the capital and the country.
