Association of Croatian British Professionals ACBP Established

A few months ago, the Association of Croatian British Professionals ACBP (Association of Croatian British Professionals) was established in London, aiming to connect Croatian professionals working in the United Kingdom through social and professional events to create a community with diverse skills and experiences where members actively support each other both professionally and personally.

-“We strive to be a leading platform for fostering meaningful connections, sharing knowledge and expertise, and promoting innovation and collaboration between Croatia and the United Kingdom. Our vision is to build a strong and dynamic network of professionals dedicated to making a positive impact on society and recognized for their excellence and leadership in their fields,” said Krešimir Krajnović and Margareta Klinčić Tremac, co-chairs of the Association.

ACBP was established based on the model of ACAP, a similar association in the USA, with which it already collaborates closely, and the driving forces behind the gathering of Croatian professionals in the United Kingdom were Krešimir Krajnović and Margareta Klinčić Tremac, who are also co-chairs of the Association. ACBP has quickly gathered around 150 members, among the first of whom were August Marčan, Filip Tremac, Matej Lovrenović, and Marko Nižetić, all young and highly educated professionals living and working in London.

The first public appearance of ACBP took place last week at a reception at the Croatian Embassy in London, attended by about a hundred guests from various professions, to whom the Croatian Ambassador to the UK, Igor Pokaz, addressed with a speech.

It is estimated that between 15,000 and 20,000 Croats and their descendants live in the UK, and ACBP aims to gather and connect around five hundred of them.
