Slovenia

Slovenia’s competitive advantages have attracted large and small foreign investors from neighbouring countries as well as from around the globe.

A business taxation regime, a well-educated and well-trained workforce, high business ethics and a commitment to quality have sustained economic growth, making Slovenia the best prepared candidate for EU membership. That is quite an achievement for a small country. But, to become a choice location for investors, Slovenia has paid attention to entrepreneurship and innovation capabilities by providing a functioning investment and regulatory environment.

Synchronised government measures and incentive packages are aimed at facilitating investment by maintaining macroeconomic stability while fostering investor-friendly administration at the local level. The latest programmes support technology-based ventures and provide more incentives to small and medium-sized enterprises to develop cutting-edge innovations.

Slovenia has all the attributes of a top destination for smaller knowledge-economy projects, high-tech centres, distribution and logistic hubs, and call centres. The co-operation between universities and businesses coupled with the development of internationally competitive industrial clusters confirms the commitment at all levels to be at the forefront of business.
