On Tuesday, February 2nd, the third webinar in Entrepreneurship in the new reality program took place. We hosted Raj Bhala from the University of Kansas School of Law (US), Sonja Šmuc from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia (SI) and Draško Veselinovič from the Slovenian Business and Research Association, Belgium and GEA College (SI). The webinar was moderated by Bojan Ivanc from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia (SI).

The main topic of the debate was the market reforms and changes required in this new reality context. The guests gave their in-depth views on how markets and governments should react to pandemic times, what measures are to be taken in order to help businesses and entrepreneurs, and what the future holds. We also learned about the differences between the US, EU and Slovenian approaches to solving reform issues. And like in the previous webinar, we ran a poll among participants, this time with the question: What kind of economic reforms should be the priority for local governments in the new reality in order to enable entrepreneurship growth? We will reveal the answers later on.
