Young entrepreneurs from the SAŠA region impressed at the SAŠA event for young people
On 15 October 2025, in cooperation with the SAŠA incubator, we organised an inspiring event for young people: Entrepreneurship and the Future in the SAŠA Region, which brought together young, enterprising individuals and experts from various fields in Velenje.
The hackathon brought together entrepreneurial thinking, financial literacy, and networking with inspiring individuals from the valley.
The event offered participants the opportunity to develop their business ideas, learn the basics of financial literacy, try their hand at shooting promotional videos, and present their ideas to an expert jury.
The jury members were:
Rok Plankelj, Director of the Savinjska-Šaleška Chamber of Commerce and Industry,
Tomaž Sijarto, Director of Makom d.o.o.
Winners of the event:
Best business model: spominček.si – a device for reminding and managing medication intake
Best idea presentation: VaruškaGO – an app for ordering childcare with verified babysitters
Congratulations to all of the teams for their courage, creativity, and energy! 💚
