About the book

A story of work, people and friendship

This is not a book about success but about the road to it: the town he set out from, the Vienna that became home, a business built over decades, and the people without whom none of it would have been possible.

01

Life’s journey

Born in Paraćin, at home in Vienna today. The book follows the road from his first steps in Austria — the club “Karibik”, opened in 1991 — to the present day: married, father of four, entrepreneur and senator.

02

Entrepreneurship

The travel agency “Falcon Tours”, founded in Vienna in 1997 with offices in Belgrade and Montenegro; from 2003 founder and co-founder of several real-estate companies; today owner and shareholder of investment companies with over 220 employees.

03

Humanitarian work

More than thirty years of humanitarian engagement — from aid to the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia in the 1990s to the floods of 2014; 27 years of support for the St. Anna Children’s Hospital in Vienna; work with “Humanitas”, the “Serbian Center” and community associations.

04

Testimonies

Friends, colleagues and partners speak from their own perspective — about the man, not the title. Their words form a chapter of their own.
