It's our people who make the difference
Our people are our most valuable asset. They are graduates of the Europe’s respected universities. Their educational and professional backgrounds, their in-depth knowledge of the values and beliefs of the Western and local culture, combined with their high motivation, ensure highest professional performance standards.

We foster our people’s development in a way that enhances their value to our clients, to themselves and to our organisation. We help them realize their full potential.

It’s our corporate culture that backs us
Seriousness, confidentiality, personal commitment and professional care characterise our cooperation with all stakeholders. ECIKS is driven by creativity, team work and trust between its members. New ideas are appreciated and welcomed but critically discussed.

New staff members that join ECIKS are expected to be resolute and willing to contribute to the success of the organisation.

ECIKS’ main values rely on full identification of its staff with the mission and vision, their commitment, supportive and co-operative working culture, and high intrinsic motivation.

Service Excellence
Comprehensive and creative services, analysis, strategies, reliable and pragmatic solutions are the brand of our work, ensuring service excellence for our clients.

Strict quality control during and after every project ensures that all our deliverables meet the standards of excellence. We are satisfied, only when our clients are satisfied.

Partnership
The success of our clients and partners is of utmost importance to us. We dedicate all our energy to accomplish this one goal. We are fully aware that this demands absolute professionalism, reliability, confidentiality and honesty. We see our clients and staff members as a joint team and as such, this makes partnership to one of our leading core values.

Entrepreneurship
To us, entrepreneurship is above all about business success and about the readiness to take action and responsibility in order to achieve it. That means working independently, taking risks, and exploring alternative ideas.

We help top-level decision-makers in economy, business and politics to act as entrepreneurs as we consider ourselves to be a network of such. As a trusted independent partner, we are uniquely positioned to provide objective input and support.

From a small organisation founded by a group of Kosovar then-students in Vienna, ECIKS has grown to a reliable and long-standing partner of the business community. It now represents a serious partner of some European governments and international institutions, such as the World Bank, Austrian Development Agency, Vienna Economic Forum etc.

Since November 2006, within a project proposed by ECIKS and financed by Austrian Government through Austrian Development Agency, ECIKS officially represents the Investment Promotion Agency of Kosovo (IPAK) in the German-speaking countries. This office is at the same time the first official economic representation of Kosovo abroad. ECIKS is now a leader in servicing potential and existing foreign investors in Kosovo.
