A new German-Bulgarian Chamber survey points to stronger investment, hiring, and digital-infrastructure confidence in Bulgaria.
A newly presented Business Climate in Bulgaria 2026 survey from the German-Bulgarian Chamber of Industry and Commerce suggests Bulgaria is still getting taken seriously by companies that plan to invest, hire, and stick around.
The topline numbers are worth noting:
- 56% of surveyed companies say they plan to increase investment in Bulgaria
- 85% expect to maintain or grow employment
- 95% give Bulgaria’s digital infrastructure a positive rating
- 13% say they are considering moving investment from Germany to Bulgaria
The practical takeaway is pretty simple: Bulgaria is still a credible place to build, hire, and run a business. That is the part that matters more than the usual corporate ceremony around these surveys.
For Nestwork’s audience, the relevant angle is that this supports something people here already care about: whether Bulgaria still makes sense as a base for founders, remote teams, and internationally oriented businesses. On that question, the signal is still positive.
It is not earth-shattering news, but it is a useful reminder that the country keeps showing up as a serious option for companies looking at cost, infrastructure, and access to talent inside Europe.
