Sosnowski feels that “sports are a great equalizer and have served to break down barriers across social and racial lines in America,” and hopes KK Triland can provide the same platform in BiH.

World Investment News, Interview with Tie Sosnowski
WORLD INVESTMENT NEWS, INTERVIEW WITH TIE SOSNOWSKI Tie Sosnowski discusses the Foreign Investors Council and doing business in BiH SARAJEVO - Triland Development Chief Executive and Foreign Investors Council President of the Board, Mr. Tie Sosnowski, spoke with World Investment News recently about the Foreign Investors Council and doing business in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Tie Sosnowski, FIC President of the Board of Directors and CEO of Triland Development stated that "BiH has been affected in many ways by the economic and financial crisis; the economic downturn hit exports and imports, inflow of foreign investment and public spending. Tie Sosnowski the team owner on the season, our goal was to play hard, win games and help our community as much as possible. Tie Sosnowski, a US businessman working in BiH, is without doubt the most interesting individual among the numerous community of foreign businessmen. Sosnowski is the founder and owner of Triland Development, a company that built a residential villa in Koševo a few years ago, probably the most luxurious building in the entire BiH. In the very center of the city, next to the two UNITIC skyscrapers, Sosnowski has just started constructing a large retail building of 23,000 square meters. Through his company, Sosnowski is present in some other countries in Europe and America, but the main ambitions of this US businessman are related to BiH and Sarajevo, where he had taken up residence as early as five years ago. As a veteran in the foreign business community in BiH, Sosnowski was appointed the President of the Foreign Investors Council last year, and is also the current Vice-President of the American Chamber of Commerce in BiH. Sosnowski has demonstrated his high level of integration into the social life of the city in a rather unusual way: in the summer of last year, he formed the professional basketball team "KK Triland" in Sarajevo and has brought a few promising players from other teams. Sosnowski himself used to play basketball while studying at the Washington and Lee University. SOSNOWSKI WELCOMES AMCHAM PARTNERSHIP WITH US EMBASSY US Embassy Sarajevo website - December 13, 2007 SOSNOWSKI WELCOMES AMCHAM PARTNERSHIP WITH US EMBASSY Sosnowski stressed that AmCham would continue to contribute to the development of a healthy business climate and to improving conditions not only for its members, but also for other businesses operating in Bosnia and Herzegovina. SOSNOWSKI ELECTED PRESIDENT OF FIC Dnevni Avaz - October 26, 2007 SOSNOWSKI ELECTED PRESIDENT OF FIC SARAJEVO -- The Steering Board of the Foreign Investment Council B&H elected as its new president Mr. Tie Sosnowski, the general director of Triland Development, which operates in USA and B&H. At this moment, Triland Development is constructing the "ALTA" Shopping Centre in Marijin Dvor in Sarajevo. "I haven't built anything in the RS, but it's the next target," said Tie Sosnowski, over a coffee at an upscale cafe in Sarajevo's Holiday Inn. Mr. Sosnowski, a Texan who broke ground in April on a 23,000-square-meter, almost $30 million shopping center in Sarajevo, said the entity's lower taxes are appealing, as is its relatively streamlined bureaucracy. The Federation's "permitting process is a labyrinth," he said. Tie Sosnowski, who represents Mr. Crow in the region, says it has taken more than two years to wade through about 50 procedures required for getting a building permit, including changing the property title, getting architectural drawings approved and extending utilities to the site. "When I try to get the permits, there are Serbs, Croats and Muslims who are so fractured that no one wants to take a decision," says Mr. Sosnowski, who says he has completed all but a few steps for obtaining the permit. Mr. Crow shifted to Bosnia after deciding that Moscow was too "risky and corrupt," according to Mr. Sosnowski, his regional representative. But Russian bureaucrats levied new taxes that, unless paid, would have prevented the Dallas investor from moving his money out of the country, Mr. Sosnowski says. "We ended up with profits in the mid-teens," he says.
Triland Development was founded by Mr. Tie Sosnowski and is a group of companies which owns, develops, and manages real estate assets including office, residential and retail properties in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Triland Development is affiliated with Crow Holdings, one of America's leading real estate development companies.

The final chapter of BiH’s privatization story remains to be written, and its outcome may do much to determine whether as Tie Sosnowski, wrote in the FIC White Paper “mark the beginning of a new era in Bosnia and Herzegovina and that government officials will accelerate reforms in order to ensure that the business environment is predictable and transparent
