Amusnet at Bulgaria Wants You: Building Bridges Back Home
This past Sunday in Munich was more than just a sunny day - it was full of inspiration, stories, and interesting conversations. We had the privilege to participate in the Bulgaria Wants You event for the very first time, and travelling over 1,300 kilometres to meet so many talented Bulgarians was an experience we will never forget. Established in 2020, Bulgaria Wants You has organised more than 15 events in Bulgaria and in big European cities, meeting young and talented professionals with top companies. The goal is very simple yet important to all of us - to show people living abroad that there are many opportunities for career development in Bulgaria.
The event gathered more than 800 people, all eager to explore the possibilities of returning home and developing a career. Together with 25 other companies, we spent the day talking careers, dreams, and new beginnings.
Our team - Boyana Petkova, Veliyana Stoyanova, Dessislava Koeva, and Filip Batoev - met countless individuals, each with a unique story. Some had left Bulgaria to chase professional opportunities. Others sought a different lifestyle. But all were united by one powerful feeling — the desire to come back home, to be closer to family, friends, and the familiar places they hold dear.
We know that returning is not an easy decision. It means letting go of a life already built elsewhere and embracing change once again. That’s why we didn’t just talk about jobs at Amusnet - we talked about the small joys, the challenges, and the things that truly matter when you’re making such a choice. We had the chance to meet a truly diverse group of professionals - from students eager to take their first career steps, to experienced experts in fields like economics, finance, marketing, software development, and team management. We were genuinely happy to share with each of them the opportunities Amusnet can offer and to open the door to what their professional path could look like back in Bulgaria.
Bulgaria has a lot to offer, from beautiful nature and amazing people to many career opportunities from international and local companies. It’s also a great place to launch a startup, with a supportive ecosystem and rising entrepreneurial spirit. And of course, the vibrant cultural scene and lively nightlife are still very much part of the charm we all know and love.
To support those conversations, we prepared a special presentation with up-to-date information about the cost of living in Bulgaria - real, practical insights for a new beginning.
And what touched us most was the energy and hope we saw in everyone's eyes. The belief that life in Bulgaria is getting better - and that there is room for dreams, growth, and a future here. It made us even more certain: Bulgaria’s biggest treasure has always been its people.
We’re proud to announce that this event is only the beginning of our partnership with Bulgaria Wants You. We’re excited about what’s ahead, and we know that together, we can create even more bridges between Bulgaria and its people abroad.
Stay tuned for more joint events and initiatives that we will share soon. Because sometimes, the biggest opportunities are waiting for us right where we started — back home.
