Also, 69% of entrepreneurs struggle to recruit skilled personnel.
Romanian entrepreneurs face challenges when it comes to the main funding sources as well. Many prefer to reinvest their profits and own funds (54%) instead of seeking external funding sources. This approach may limit expansion opportunities.
Despite these challenges, Romanian entrepreneurs plan innovation investment. Another positive is that Romanian entrepreneurs invest significantly in digital technologies. 71% of Romanian entrepreneurs state they stepped up AI use in recent months, confirming the status of this technology as one of the main investment directions.
