Slovenia Cameroon Business Club Business Conference.​

Events / By

Slovenia Cameroon Business Club Business Conference.

Theme: ‘‘Bridging the Gap between Slovenia and Cameroon Business Environment’’

Slovenia Cameroon Business Club (SCBC),  is thrilled to present an engaging and informative online conference that casts a spotlight on the business climates of both Slovenia and Cameroon. 
This significant event, co-organized with the Chamber of Commerce of Primorska and rra-Podravje Maribor, aimed at fostering business collaboration between Slovenia and Cameroon. The conference, scheduled on the 22nd of JUNE 2023 from 11 am -13pm central European time, is designed to address the knowledge gap between the two diverse business environments and to identify potential avenues for mutual cooperation and facilitate economic exchange.
 At the heart of this conference is the theme “Bridging the Gap of Slovenia and Cameroon Business Environment”. The main objective is to navigate the complexities and uniqueness of both business environments, highlighting the opportunities and challenges present in each. The conference seeks to bring these two worlds closer together, thereby creating a more cohesive and supportive business network.

The two-hours Hybrid(virtual and physical) conference will feature distinguished speakers, drawn from a balance of Slovenian and Cameroonian backgrounds. Their presentations will delve into the nuances of their respective business landscapes, providing attendees with a deeper understanding and appreciation of each context.

A standout segment of the conference will be the “Presentation of Use Case: C-Astral Aerospace (C-Astral, proizvodnja zračnih in vesoljskih plovil d.o.o.)”. As a key supplier of drones to the Cameroonian military, this use case offers a real-world glimpse into successful Slovenian-Cameroonian business collaborations, and illustrates how Slovenian enterprises are making their mark internationally.

Following the individual presentations, a panel discussion will be held, where strategies for strengthening Slovenia-Cameroon business ties will be explored. The audience will also have the opportunity to engage with the speakers during a dedicated Q&A session, promoting active participation and enriching conversation around the conference’s central theme.

The conference aims to create an interactive platform that encourages the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and experiences between Slovenian and Cameroonian businesses. Through this event, we hope to catalyse partnerships and collaborations that will promote economic growth and business innovation in both countries.

In essence, this conference represents a crucial step towards more robust international collaboration between Slovenia and Cameroon. We believe that by bridging this gap, we can unlock a plethora of business opportunities and contribute to the economic prosperity of both nations.
