Protecting Knowledge as a Competitive Advantage

24 September 2026 | CUBO Golf Smlednik

SPIRIT Slovenia invites you to the first session of the FDI Executive Exchange Series, a leadership-focused programme of networking and knowledge-sharing events designed specifically for executives and senior decision-makers of foreign-owned and mixed-ownership companies operating in Slovenia.

This exclusive executive session brings together company leaders to discuss strategic topics that influence long-term business success, competitiveness and growth. The first event in the series, Protecting Knowledge as a Competitive Advantage, will focus on the importance of safeguarding intellectual property, trade secrets, know-how and innovative solutions as key assets for sustainable business development and international expansion.

Through a combination of business and legal perspectives, practical case studies and examples of good practice, participants will gain valuable insights into effectively managing and protecting knowledge-based assets in an increasingly competitive global environment.

More than a traditional training event, the FDI Executive Exchange Series is designed as a platform for peer learning, open dialogue and high-level networking among business leaders. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss common challenges, exchange practical experiences and build valuable professional connections with fellow executives and experts.

What participants will gain

  • Practical insights and solutions relevant to business operations
  • Examples of successful approaches and good practices
  • Exchange of experiences with executives from leading companies
  • Direct dialogue with experts and institutional representatives
  • Opportunities for high-level networking and new business connections


Following the formal programme, participants will be invited to continue discussions during a networking lunch.

Participation is free of charge, but registration is mandatory. Due to the exclusive nature of the event, the number of places is limited.
