Dragana Pajovic is the first recipient of the annual SACC New York Centennial Scholarship and will work with Membership and Events at the Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce Inc., New York during 2008.

Dragana recently graduated from Lund University with a Master of Science in International Economics. She has also studied at University of California, San Diego and Konstanz University in Germany, specializing in trade and political economy. Additionally, she speaks five languages and has vocational experience from Washington D.C. and Slovenia. Dragana has a strong interest in international trade and public relations and looks forward to broadening her knowledge in these areas.
“I am very grateful for being awarded this scholarship and seeing as it is the first time a scholar is directly sponsored by the Chamber’s Centennial fund, I feel even more honored. Working with projects and events in the Chamber means working in a dynamic setting in the financial capital of the world – the perfect springboard towards an international career.”
