On this occasion, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia (GZS) hosted also POLISH-SLOVENIAN INVESTMENT FORUM which was attended by many Slovenian and Polish business persons, economists, and diplomats. The forum opened with the ceremonial signing of the collaboration agreement between the Polish town of Miedzyzdroje and Slovenian town of Isola both represented by their respective mayors. The forum was also the meeting place for exchanging business-related experiences in Slovenia and Poland by the following attendees: managing director of Trimo Trebnje, Mr. Maciej Radomski, Executive Director of the Foreign Investment Department Invest in Poland, Mr. Adam Malecki, Partner PwC and auditing services manager for Eastern Europe, Mr. Pawel Peplinski, president of the Polish-Slovenian Business Club Triglav-Rysy, Mr. Matej Hojnik and the chairman of the Board of Armeton Group, Mr. Denis Vodopivec and others.
The attendees were also addressed by the GZS managing director, Mr. Samo Hribar Milič and the Ambassador of the Republic of Poland in Slovenia, His Excellency Pawel Czerwinski, whereas the official part of the meeting concluded with the speech delivered by the Polish President and his host, the President of the Republic of Slovenia, His Excellency Borut Pahor. As part of the efforts of the international business-investor programs Invest to Slovenia - investo.si and International Investors` Network - invest-to.net, at the invitation of the organizers, the event was also attended by the PanSlovenian Investors’ & Shareholders’ Association (VZMD) President, Mr. Kristjan Verbič, who seized this opportunity to talk to many attendees.
VZMD has been collaborating with the Polish business and investment community since 2011, when they jointly under the leadership of the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE) and Polish Retail Investors Association (SII) organized the Slovenian Day at the Warsaw Stock Exchange (VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZphM1YDjsGI). Ever since then, VZMD has with its business-investor programs co-organized and actively participated in numerous events such as Slovenian Center in Wroclaw (VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atTySBetyg4), international conference »Warsaw Capital Market Summit 2014« and last year’s Congress of European local and regional authorities in Krakow, Poland. The VZMD President was invited to the latter as a speaker this year as well, but due to the simultaneous visit of the President of the Republic of Poland to Slovenia and the investment forum, he cancelled the participation.
