Abstract Istra se nalazi na sjeveroistočnom dijelu Jadranskog mora te je najveći poluotok Jadrana. Ima povoljan geografski položaj. Sa Slovenijom graniči na sjeveru, na istoku i jugu sa Primorsko – goranskom županijom, a sa Italijom ima morsku granicu na zapadu. Prema popisu Državnog zavoda za statistiku Republike Hrvatske iz 2011. na prostoru Istarske županije živi ukupno 208.055 stanovnika, najzastupljeniji starosni razred je 50-54 godina. Županija je podijeljena na 41 teritorijalnu jedinicu lokalne samouprave, na 10 gradova i 31 općinu. Istarska županija spada u pet gospodarski najjačih županija. Prema posljednjim raspoloživim podacima DZS-a za 2016. godinu BDB per capita Županije bio je za 26,25 % viši od prosječnog BDP po stanovniku na području RH. Najzastupljenije djelatnosti Istarske županije po BDV-u su smještaj, priprema i usluživanje hrane i prerađivačka industrija. Dugotrajna nezaposlenost nije problem Županije. Županija kroz razne programe potiče poduzetnike i njihovo poslovanje, kroz klastere, poduzetničke i tehnološke inkubatore, razvojem poslovnih zona i slično.
Investicije značajno utječu na gospodarstvo i njegov rast. Predstavljaju ulaganje u određena područja od kojih se u konačnici očekuje profit. U širem smislu riječi investicija je prikupljanje kapitala u sadašnjosti s nadom ostvarenja dobitka u budućnosti. Ciljevi investiranja su povoljni poslovni rezultati, povećanje obujma poslovanja, produktivnosti rada, smanjenja troškova te povećanje kvalitete učinka. Razlikuju se tri vrste investicija: bruto, neto i nove investicije. Motivi investiranja ovise o motivu poslovanja. FDI su investicijske aktivnosti tvrtke izvan granica zemlje u kojoj imaju sjedište i u kojoj se donose glavne odluke. Mogu se podijeliti u nekoliko skupina ovisno o svrsi, cilju i motivu ulaganja. Dijele se na portfolio, direktne i ostale investicije.
Investicijski potencijal Županije čini lokacija, klima, razvijeno gospodarstvo te gastronomija. Indeks gospodarske snage županija objavljen od strane Hrvatske gospodarske komore pokazuje da se Istarska županija nalazi među najrazvijenijim regijama. Zemlje najveći ulagači u Županiju u razdoblju od 1993. – 2018. su Velika Britanija, Njemačka i Italija. Istarska županija se ističe među ostalim županijama Jadranske Hrvatske. Najviša ulaganja s obzirom na broj stanovnika po županijama u razdoblju od 1993. – 2017. godine nakon grada Zagreba ostvarena su u Istarskoj županiji koja jedina uz Grad Zagreb bilježi natprosječni FDI per capita.
Budućnost investiranja Županije usmjerena je na brendiranje Istre kao ICT regije. Primjeri dobre prakse i pozitivnog utjecaja na razvoj gospodarstva su Infobip, Rockwool te projekt Coworking Pula. Na kraju samog rada naveden je i Master Plan turizma Županije za razdoblje od 2015. – 2025. godine koji ima važnost za budući razvoj turizma. Njime su obuhvaćeni glavni zadaci, ciljevi razvoja turizma te operativne strategije za poboljšanje turizma.
