AI infrastructure and adoption in Serbia

Overview

Orion Telekom has announced plans to expand its artificial intelligence infrastructure in Serbia by introducing a new NVIDIA advanced computing system. This infrastructure is intended to be hosted in the State Data Center, with operations projected to begin in the first half of 2027. The Serbian Chamber of Commerce noted that this development could position the country as a regional center for AI development.

In contrast to these infrastructure expansions, a study by the Republic Statistical Office (RZS) indicates that AI adoption remains limited among Serbian businesses. Only 17.2% of companies currently utilize AI, with usage rates varying by enterprise size and sector. While the information and communication sector shows a 53.9% integration rate, other sectors like retail and transport show significantly lower usage.
