Harris said that British investors are highly interested in the IT sector, which is a “strategic and very impressive” sector, adding that Romania became a website factory for Europe, as one of the advantages of the Romanian IT market is virtual infrastructure, with one of the highest internet speeds in Europe.

Speaking in an interview for PRO TV, the UK ambassador said that, unfortunately, the opportunities in Romania are not always known and fully understood in Great Britain, referring to energy, retail and IT sectors.

In this respect, the two countries already closed a strategic partnership in energy sector, to encourage companies and investors operating in this sector.

Harris said that there is also a problem related to the perception of potential British investors in Romania over the opportunities in the country, so that a partnership with the British-Romanian Chamber of Commerce was also signed for a series of promotion events in London.
