UK-EU Trade Conference

The British-Slovenian Chamber of Commerce, SPIRIT Slovenia, and the Ministry of the Economy, Tourism, and Sport invite you to join us at the upcoming UK-EU Trade Conference, held in partnership with the House of the EU.

The UK remains a leading European economy, while export-focused Slovenia excels in manufacturing, technology, energy, and logistics. Interest in boosting bilateral trade, particularly in advanced engineering, pharmaceuticals, green tech, and services, is growing. Foreign investment is also rising, supported by favourable policies and partnerships. With global alignments shifting, defining the future UK-EU trade relationship is essential. This conference provides a platform for leaders and experts to review UK-Slovenia ties, address key challenges, and set future priorities.

Attendance at the event is free of charge; however, advance registration via this link is required. Cancellations are free of charge up to 24 hours before the event. If you are unable to attend and fail to notify us by the deadline at info@bscc.si or events@bscc.si, a no-show fee of EUR 50 + VAT will apply.

Program:

9:00 AM - 9:05 AM | Opening Remarks 

9:05 AM – 09:25 AM | Presentation

UK-EU trade relationships in a Euro-Atlantic geopolitical turmoil.

9:25 AM - 9:45 AM | Leaders’ Top Talk 

09:45 AM – 11:15 AM | Panel Discussion

Trade and investment between the UK and Slovenia are built on mutual interest and adaptability in a changing global landscape. Post-Brexit, EU-UK dynamics are increasingly shaping this cooperation. 

Slovenia’s stable economy and central location continue to attract UK investors, while the UK remains a major European investor in sectors like energy, manufacturing, and digital tech. 

We will address how both countries can strengthen ties through regulatory cooperation, streamlined customs, and shared opportunities in green and digital transitions, while supporting sustainable growth and competitiveness. 

11:15 AM – 11:30 AM | Executive Wrap Up
