IMB news

IMB recently hosted a guest lecture delivered by Borut Jamnik, President of the Management Board of SID Bank.

We were delighted to welcome our alumnus Uroš Ivanc, CFA, Member of the Management Board and CFO of Triglav Group, as a guest lecturer in the Financial Management course.

We recently hosted Kruno Abramovič, CFO at GEN energija, d.o.o, a finance expert with extensive senior management experience who transitioned from the investment funds industry into the energy sector.

We had the pleasure of welcoming Tim Umberger, an IMB alumnus, Board Member at Advance Capital Partners, and co-founder of Capital Partners, as a guest speaker for our students.

We recently welcomed Matej Pregarc, an IMB alumnus currently working at Hilti, for an engaging guest lecture.
Matej offered valuable insights into Hilti’s business strategy, organisational culture, and international career opportunities, with a particular emphasis on internships and early career development. His contribution was especially meaningful because he spoke not only as a company representative, but as an alumnus who once sat in the same lecture halls as our current students.

The IMB Alumni hosted a fireside chat featuring two distinguished speakers whose work has profoundly shaped economic thought both globally and in Slovenia: Professor Jan Svejnar and Professor Janez Prašnikar. Professor Svejnar is the Richard N. Gardner Professor of Economics and International Affairs at Columbia University, with a long-standing academic career and extensive advisory experience with international institutions such as the World Bank, the EBRD, and numerous governments. He was joined by Professor Prašnikar, Professor Emeritus at the School of Economics and Business and founder of the IMB Programme, who is widely recognised as one of Slovenia’s leading economists and a pioneer of empirical economic research in the region.
