Interview: Aljaž Osetič, high school student and entrepreneur who goes across the pond for knowledge
Aljaž Osetič is a 4th-year student at Velenje High School. And like every high school student, he also has to take the matriculation exam first, and then study. But Aljaž was not satisfied with just anything, he enrolled at the exclusive entrepreneurial university in Watson, USA, where only fifteen students per year are taught by Nobel laureates. He successfully passed the entrance exam, and so this year at the end of August, he is going to face new challenges. Even earlier, he will finish his project with the Trjajalnik team, where they developed a product to shorten the reaction time of firefighters during an intervention (a sign that a volunteer firefighter places with a magnet on the roof of his vehicle when driving in an emergency). What does the future alma mater bring and what does the project mean for firefighters, below.
