Partner Programme
We encourage the relocation and adaptation process in companies that employ foreigners. Companies that join our Partner Programme can profit from our services, such as advertising and other activities (see the section “Individual Services”) below.
We make life easier for the internationals and their families who come to live and work in Ostrava.
