Agenda | Participating Slovenian companies | Registration | Related links

We invite you to the first business forum New partnership trends for a more competitive EU, organized by SPIRIT Slovenia Business Development Agency and Managers' Association of Slovenia at the Slovenia House in La Villette Park.

The Slovenia House in La Villette Park will be a place of numerous business events during the Olympic games. We invite you to visit and enjoy a concise and delightful menu of inspiring business networking, all flavoured with the unique excitement of the Olympics. Join us for an unforgettable experience and discover why Slovenia is the perfect blend of green innovation, smart solutions and creative excellence.

Here are some compelling reasons to explore Slovenia:

  • Slovenia is the third most industrialized country in the EU, with a strong commitment to sustainability.
  • Our economy ranks 11th globally in complexity.
  • 80 % of our GDP comes from exports.
  • We host one of Renault's most efficient factories.
  • We are forging a deep aerospace partnership with France.
  • The first International Research Centre on Artificial Intelligence under the auspices of UNESCO was established in Ljubljana.

The automotive industry accounts for more than 7% of the EU gross domestic product. Discussions will take place with eminent national and international business representatives on what the EU needs to do to become more competitive and what regional and global partnerships are needed to successfully manage our common European industrial policy. The conversation will focus on mobility, but the answers will be common to the future of the wider European industry, which is highly developed but faces many challenges in the global race with its competitors. Slovenian companies are an important part of European industry and need to make an ambitious contribution to its resilience and to forging partnerships for our common improved competitiveness.
