Na agenciji Spirit Slovenija, ki finan\u010dno podpira izvajanje raziskave nacionalne konkuren\u010dnosti Slovenije, je 16. junija potekala tiskovna konferenca ob objavi lestvice konkuren\u010dnosti, ki jo pripravlja Mednarodni in\u0161titut za razvoj mened\u017ementa (IMD) iz Lausanne. Na tiskovni konferenci sta sodelovala Sonja Ur\u0161i\u010d in Damjan Kava\u0161 z In\u0161tituta za ekonomska raziskovanja ter Mateja Drnov\u0161ek z Ekonomske fakultete. In\u0161titut za ekonomska raziskovanja kot nacionalni partner IMD za Slovenijo v sodelovanju z Ekonomsko fakulteto spremlja nacionalno konkuren\u010dnost Slovenije po metodologiji IMD \u017ee vse od leta 1999. V okviru tega vsako leto izvedemo mnenjsko raziskavo med mened\u017eerji slovenskih podjetij, njeni rezultati v kombinaciji z naborom statisti\u010dnih kazalnikov pa sooblikujejo uvrstitev dr\u017eave na lestvici konkuren\u010dnosti. V okviru tiskovne konference smo predstavili uvrstitev Slovenije na leto\u0161nji IMD lestvici konkuren\u010dnosti in pri tem osvetlili konkuren\u010dne prednosti in slabosti Slovenije na klju\u010dnih podro\u010djih ter izpostavili izzive, ki jih mora Slovenija nasloviti za izbolj\u0161anje svoje konkuren\u010dnosti. Slovenija je po padcu v letih 2023 in 2024, ko je skupno izgubila 8 mest, letos zadr\u017eala lansko uvrstitev na 46. mestu.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10261,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[149],"class_list":["post-10260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-novice","tag-149"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-05-20 17:55:54","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10260"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10260\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10264,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10260\/revisions\/10264"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10261"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ier.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
