  • IEDC Bled presented Future 100, a national selection of 100 Slovenian companies judged to have strong future potential.
  • The initiative reviewed about 203,000 registered and active companies before identifying 603 that met the OECD definition of high growth.
  • Organizers assessed companies across seven dimensions to create the ranking.

A new national list aims to identify the Slovenian companies best placed to shape the country’s economic future. The Future 100 selection was presented publicly on Monday at the Future 500 Forum.

The forum is a strategic initiative run by the IEDC business school in Bled, in partnership with the Atlantic Council and the Bled Strategic Forum. It selected 100 successful Slovenian companies considered to have the greatest potential for future growth.

Stjepan Orešković, founder of the Future 500 initiative and chairman of the IEDC supervisory board, said the ranking measured companies across seven dimensions. The organizers began by examining about 203,000 registered and operating businesses.

That review found that 603 companies met the OECD criteria for high growth. The standard requires growth of at least 20% a year for three consecutive years, Orešković explained. The Future 100 list was then drawn from a broader assessment of growth and other indicators.

Under this criterion, high growth means at least 20% for three consecutive years.
