The State Data Center in Kragujevac, which should contribute to unobstructed and reliable operations of the services of electronic government, the safe keeping of data from registers and the development of future services, opened on Friday, December 18, the government announced.

The Government of Serbia had designated the construction of the State Data Center in Kragujevac as a project of importance for Serbia, since it is one of the capital investments in that town, whose value is EUR 30 million.
