Gotoky: a smart walkie-talkie from a Slovenian start-up company https://citymagazine.si/en/gotoky-smart-walkie-talkie-of-a-slovenian-startup/ Wed, 23 Aug 2017 04:02:54 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=317354

Gotoky rhymes with gnocchi. And also with hips, children and tense bows. But it has absolutely nothing in common with the above. But it also rhymes with walkie-talkie, which is actually Gotoky. These communication devices are less common among us, and you might even think that time has run over them, but this is clearly not the case.

Column: Matija Goljar encourages young entrepreneurs - from executor to creator https://citymagazine.si/en/column-matija-goljar-encourages-young-entrepreneurs-from-doer-to-creator/ Thu, 09 Feb 2017 07:00:44 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=287600

In recent years, more and more young people feel as if someone has swept them off their feet. They did everything right and as their parents, teachers and the environment in general expected of them. They were studying. They had good grades, they went to college. They graduated. Because they were promised that a job would be waiting for them afterwards. But there is no job.

We talked to Dejan Roljič, the director of the ABC accelerator, who in the last two years has thoroughly ventilated the Slovenian start-up scene and has already helped many companies in the beginning of their global journeys. After recently setting up an accelerator in Munich, an office in Silicon Valley is opening its doors these days. But it seems that this is only the beginning of an extremely ambitious global story.

Scoutee - Slovenian ball speed meter measures the pulse of the market on Kickstarter https://citymagazine.si/en/scoutee-slovenian-speed-meter-zogice-measures-the-pulse-of-the-market-on-kickstarter/ Thu, 10 Sep 2015 04:18:17 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=183105

Scoutee is a Slovenian baseball speedometer, which recently started its Kickstarter company, with which it wants to raise 50 thousand US dollars to start production. The start is encouraging, but the ball is round, as they say, so the team must not chill the champagne yet. It is a radar device that measures the speed of the ball used in baseball (it is expected to measure other types of balls in the future), and their target group in the first phase is aspiring baseball players as well as coaches.

7 essential entrepreneurial skills for modern start-up entrepreneurship https://citymagazine.si/en/7-necessary-business-skills-for-a-modern-start-up-business/ Mon, 24 Aug 2015 05:02:20 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=179867

Technological knowledge, i.e. knowledge of computing and informatics, has never been more important for an entrepreneur than it is today. Today, for modern start-up entrepreneurship, business and management skills that enable mastering strategies and the business environment are far from sufficient. An entrepreneur must be innovative and creative, have a knack for dealing with employees, and cannot defend himself even with knowledge of corporate finance. To this must now be added appropriate technical knowledge such as knowledge of a programming language, mastery of website optimization and web programming, knowledge of creating a website skeleton (wireframe),... Which other necessary skills for modern start-up entrepreneurship are still important, but you are faithful in continuation.

The first Slovenian watch manufacturer, Chevall Watches, goes to Kickstarter https://citymagazine.si/en/the-first-slovenian-manufacturer-of-chevall-watches-goes-on-kickstarter/ Thu, 18 Jun 2015 03:10:56 +0000

Every man's secret desire is to become a cavalier. We used to do it with horses, today we reflect cavalry in a completely different way, with a watch. Unfortunately, many watches are unaffordable, especially for young people. Accordingly, Luka Badalič and Luka Žgajnar designed a watch that reflects quality, elegance and affordability. Chevall Watches are three different watches in one, designed for three different occasions.

Rok's Peanut Butter - peanut butter from Kickstarter = "butter" of a Slovenian https://citymagazine.si/en/roks-peanut-butter-peanut-butter-from-the-kickstarter-butter-slovenia/ Wed, 27 May 2015 05:59:47 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=article&p=164326

Rok's Peanut Butter is a new Slovenian product that found its way onto Kickstarter. The peanut butter, which is based on a unique recipe and is free of additional salt, preservatives and oils, was signed by 28-year-old Slovenian Rok Starič. The latter is no stranger to butter production, but the demand for his healthy product exceeded the supply, so he turned to a crowdfunding platform for help, where he is raising start-up funds to produce a grinder for finely grinding peanuts.

Brands of Friends: Much more than a local craft and design store https://citymagazine.si/en/brands-of-friends-much-more-than-a-store-local-crafts-and-designs/ Sat, 09 May 2015 06:30:10 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=restaurant&p=160830

Design on the one hand, industry on the other. This is the best description of the new project of Right Hemisphere and WoodStock. The idea matured this January, when the two teams together rented business premises on Čopova Street in Ljubljana. Here they will present themselves under the common brand Brands Of Friends, which will also include many other Slovenian brands. In addition to space for design and industry, it will also be a space for commerce.
