Gregor Jamnik
Managing Director at Hotel Slon»It is a great pleasure to be a member of BSCC and it means a lot to us in Hotel Slon. We host a great deal of British travellers, in summer many tourists, but throughout the year business travellers who visit Slovenia for their business interest. These business travellers visit Slovenian companies that make business with UK or they seek opportunities with UK companies expanding in this region. My team and I think it is a great advantage to be able to meet other BSCC members, exchange ideas and practices, meet new business partners and host BSCC events in our hotel.«
Andrej Krajner
Communication Manager at NLB Group»Simply put: to be connected to fair minded people from different backgrounds, knowledge, and experience, to be able to converse with them and exchange opinions, broadens horizons, introduces new ideas, and creates new opportunities. Many of them have been presented to NLB and NLB Group precisely because of our partnership with British-Slovenian Chamber of Commerce. We have been, for example, amongst other honoured to support the youth programme The Duke of Edinburgh Award, known as MEPI in Slovenia; and to organize a very informative visit to the London Stock Exchange, Level39 and ING Bank. We intend to further strengthen our partnership; therefore I look forward to new opportunities also in the future.«
Matej Golob Matzele
President of the Management Board at Modra zavarovalnica»The British-Slovenian Chamber is a key organisation for providing information and networking between businesses and business people from Slovenia and the UK, which is particularly important after Brexit. Its leadership, team and members also regularly offer very professional and relaxed joint meetings and events, especially in the areas of financial markets and new technologies. Its ambition goes even further, as the British-Slovenian Chamber is one of the chambers that most intensively covers broader global issues, such as climate change.«
