Tier 2 · growing

Czechia · Hungary · Serbia · Baltics

CZHURSEELTLV

Tier 3 · by request

Slovakia · Slovenia · Croatia · N. Macedonia · Moldova

SKSIHRMKMD

We've done placements in each. We're honest about timeline and where the gaps are.

🇺🇦 Ukraine — special-case coverage

We place Ukrainian engineers under our Bulgarian license or via our Polish/Romanian EOR partners. We're transparent about timeline, mobilization, and risk. Ask us during the briefing call.

Note on AI Data & Expert Networks: Activate engagements often source globally, not just CEE — AI training data and expert-network work follows the language and expertise, not the geography. CEE remains the anchor for the other three verticals.
