Doing business in Monaco opens a door to large profits. The real estate market in Monaco is very specific due to its limited offer. There is a high demand for premium-class property by very wealthy buyers, and an insignificant amount of new development.
The main driving forces of Monaco’s economy are service industries, especially banking, property management, and financial services, including insurance. Tourism is a major factor in the services sector, making up to 25% of the total revenue. A lot of progress has been made in renewable energies and sustainable initiatives. Agriculture and industry are next to impossible in Monaco due to the scarcity and cost of land. However, excellent business conference venues are available to showcase the best enterprises all year round.
Grimaldi Forum Cultural and Exhibition Centre is Europe’s largest conference venue, which provides three terraced auditoriums and massive exhibition halls. The convention centre and auditorium can house up to 1,100 visitors. The International Conference Centre has the capacity for another 450. These venues are especially remarkable as they were built on land reclaimed from the sea.

Another important attraction in Monaco is its casinos. Gambling in Monaco contributes a significant part of the GDP of the country. The chic and never-ending holiday of Casino Monte Carlo attracts millions of tourists every year.
