Dearest Members!


I consider it as a great honor and pride to be appointed the President of the American Chamber of Commerce AmCham Slovenia at the regular General Assembly. I adopt the function as a big honor and a big responsibility at the same time. I have been in touch with the progress of the development of the American Chamber of Commerce as a Vice-President for four years and believe that we as a team and together with the exceptionally well-coordinated AmCham team along with the confidence of you, dear Members, have accomplished a lot.

Tomaž Lovše, who lead the Chamber from 2007 has by common consent of the Members of the Board of Governors received the title of Honorary AmCham Member. It is also his leadership and his support that led us to the foundations we have now and on the grounds of which we will be able to upgrade all our programs and activities even more. Everything begins and ends at members, therefore we have to strive for enlarging its circle, nevertheless shall not forget the fact that the Chamber` s reputation is reflected in the reputation of us, the members.

We will also in the future be active in four main spheres of activities: networking; advocacy; AmCham Young Professionals and international cooperation. I will gladly as well as the whole AmCham team be open to your proposals, needs and ideas. I am looking forward to spending time with you, perhaps the charity family sports picnic Slovenija: U.S. Sports Cup will be our first opportunity. Thank you once again for your confidence!


Matej Potokar,

President of AmCham Slovenia
