(8 february 2019) The 7th edition of the Italian Business Forum (IBF) will be held at the Jožef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana on 12th February. The theme on which this year's interventions are focused is Creativity - a strategic organizational competence.  The Italian Business Forum brings together prestigious Italian and Slovenian guests, encouraging the exchange of opinions and experiences on the theme of creativity.  The purpose of this edition of the IBF is to present innovative Italian and Slovenian case studies, to expose them to a broad public and to create fertile ground for an even more fruitful collaboration between Governments, researchers and companies in both the countries.  The event was organised by the Italian-Slovenian Forum in collaboration with the Italian Embassy in Ljubljana, the Italian Trade Agency, the Italian Cultural Institute, and the Jožef Stefan Institute.
