The field of business consulting includes both scientific research and business consulting work. On the one hand, we study the patterns and trends that define the developments at the corporate level, the response of companies to current challenges (e.g. the economic crisis in 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic), compare the performance of Slovenian companies with companies from other countries, and provide economic policy makers with appropriate scientific and professional support in defining effective strategies, policies and measures. On the other hand, we quickly and effectively transfer our own and other current scientific research findings to companies through business consulting, helping them to follow the latest business trends and improve their competitiveness and business results.
