Slovenia at Expo 2020: Green and Smart Experience

With the long-awaited opening of Expo2020, Dubai seems to be where we should be at the moment. And it's also where you will "meet" Slovenia. Slovenia is represented in Dubai with the motto "Slovenia. Green and Smart Experience", which will highlight the sustainable, modern and creative side of our character. It addresses the global public with stories that speak of the unique intertwining of pristine nature, knowledge, innovation and a pioneering economy.

And Slovenia is not bored these days either, as the EU Council Presidency is in full swing. The EU-Western Balkans Summit will take place here on 6 October, but as you will read below, intensive work is also underway in other areas.
