DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
In order to attract the FDI, the EU Transition countries and the Republic
of Croatia should provide to foreign investors a stable macroeconomic
environment, non-discriminatory regulatory environment, removal of
administrative barriers, adequate infrastructure and human capital. It is also
necessary to develop and implement policies that would benefit from the inflow
of FDI in terms of technological progress. Therefore, there is a need to create an
appropriate National Innovation System that should provide the basis and
guidelines for future activities aimed at improving the innovation culture and
innovation potential.
