💭As a small, open economy, Slovenia can turn global trends and challenges to its advantage. With the right strategy, which considers Slovenia's export-oriented economy, including its niche, innovative, and family-owned businesses, we can emerge as regional winners. For this reason, some international companies have established their development centers in Slovenia.   We will discuss these and other relevant topics at the ☕AmCham Business Breakfast titled: Global Investments in High Value-Added Companies - Frangež, Ljoljo, Massey and Mihelj Coustaury on Slovenian Potential   WHEN? 📅 September 17, 2024   SPEAKERS🎤: Matevž Frangež, Robert Ljoljo, MBA, MSc., Gabriel Massey, Jasna Mihelj Coustaury   MORE INFO ℹ️ https://lnkd.in/dfavhgcH
