Juraj Matija Šporer or Ðuro Matija Šporer or George Sporer or Ðuro Matic Šporer (1795–1884) was a Croatian physician and writer who was one of the forerunners of the Illyrian movement.
Šporer was the first Croatian person who attempted to publish a native 'Illyrian' language newspaper.
His attempts failed because of the complete lack of interest for newspaper published in his native language.
