AmCham Tourism Council met with Jiří Pos to discuss Prague Airport plans

The airport is an essential piece of infrastructure for an innovative economy. Its ability to spread value-added investment depends on the strength of the public transport web connected to its terminals. If we connect Brno and Ostrava more directly to the airport, that will attract the rest of the world to connect as well.

The more direct connections an airport has, the easier it is do business. The easier it is to do business, the better the chance to attract investment, and the more fertile the environment for the technology development essential for a sustainable start-up sector.

It would also help to have a true technology park in Prague. The airport wants to develop unused land into an airport city. Part of that city could be a hub where universities, private research labs, company technology departments, and start-ups mix and mingle- and investors, scientists, research executives and top professors can fly in to take part in key meetings and presentations.
