The round table entitled Development of entrepreneurial opportunities was held as part of this year's FESTINNO as an open public event and combined with the course Entrepreneurial Society in postgraduate studies and the course Entrepreneurial Activity in undergraduate studies. In which entrepreneurs participated, the event was organized and moderated by assoc. prof. Jasna Auer Antončič on May 8, 2023. The roundtable was attended by 100 participants.

Entrepreneurs Matjaž Elšnik (Guardi Slovenia), Anja Bordon (Gaia Naturelle), Željko Perović (One Sails Slovenia), and Petra Parovel (SWY Brand) presented their companies and how they were created based on entrepreneurial opportunities. Each in their own way, they said which factors they attribute the most important to the success of the company and which challenges they encountered on their entrepreneurial journey.

The event was interesting and the students learned a lot about entrepreneurial practice. Entrepreneurs gave advice to young people who are starting with entrepreneurship or considering an entrepreneurial career.

Matjaž Elšnik: "Believe in your idea."

Anja Bordon: "Be persistent."

Željko Perović: "Choose an activity that makes you happy."

Petra Parovel: "Achievements require a lot of work."

The draft of the record was prepared by student Martin Ilievski.
