“We design your success.”
„Mi oblikujemo vaš uspeh.“
For me, the best thing about being an entrepreneur is … … having control over my own destiny as well as the opportunity to lead a team of staff.
Zame je najboljša stvar pri podjetništvu……imeti kontrolo nad lastno usodo in priložnost za vodenje ekipe zaposlenih.
What should an entrepreneur do to overcome a crisis? Be resilient and redouble your efforts because 90 per cent of the business is still out there.
Kaj naj stori podjetnik, da bo lahko premagal krizo?Bodite prožni in podvojite svoja prizadevanja, saj 90 odstotkov posla še čaka na vas.
Genoveva Christova and her business partner didn’t have an easy task ahead of them when they decided to produce and export furniture in a ‘macho Bulgarian society’, yet their sales are now reaching close to €2m.
Genoveva Christova in njena poslovna partnerka nista imeli lahke naloge, ko sta se odločili, da bosta v „mačistični bolgarski družbi“ izdelovali in izvažali pohištvo, danes pa se dohodki njunega podjetja že bližajo 2 milijonoma evrov.
The Ligna Group exports hotel furniture made in Bulgaria to be fitted into new or refurbished hotels, primarily in France and Germany.
Podjetje Ligna Group izvaža hotelsko pohištvo proizvedeno v Bolgariji za opremo novih ali prenovljenih hotelov predvsem v Francijo in Nemčijo.
Despite the financial crisis, their business went up by 28 per cent whilst the Bulgarian furniture sector went down by 37 per cent.
Kljub finančni krizi se je njihovo poslovanje povečalo za 28 odstotkov v času, ko se je bolgarska pohištvena industrija skrčila za 37 odstotkov.
Their next goal is to break into the UK and Italian markets.
Moj nasvet tistim, ki razmišljajo o lastnem poslu, je…Če želite najti in zapolniti tržno nišo, poskrbite, da bodo vaše raziskave tržišča nepristranske in točne.
Mrs Christova and her business partner met in 1989 and set up the first Aerobics Studio in Varna.
Genoveva Christova in njena poslovna partnerka sta se spoznali leta 1989 in ustanovili sta prvi studio za aerobiko v Varni.
It was old Communist Bulgaria and they were young girls braving the world of business.
To je bilo še v stari komunistični Bolgariji, onidve pa sta bili mladenki,ki sta se spopadli s poslovnim svetom.
My advice to those who are considering starting their own business …Make sure your market research is honest and accurate in order to find a niche market to cater to.
Kaj je za vas najboljša priprava za novega podjetnika?Biti športnica ali športnik …to ti da željo po zmagi. Ključna je moč tvoje motivacije.

What is the specific quality that distinguishes your product from its competitors? As far as quality is concerned, I make no compromises, regardless of the cost.
Katera posebna lastnost razlikuje vaš proizvod od konkurenčnih?Kar se tiče kakovosti, ne sprejemam kompromisov, ne glede na ceno.
Since 1982, Csonka és Fiai Kft has evolved from a family business producing laboratory and gift glassware, to an internationally successful business focused on Trendglas, a unique brand of heatresistant glassware.
Podjetje Csonka és Fiai Kft se je od leta 1982 razvilo iz družinskega podjetja za proizvodnjo laboratorijskega stekla in darilnih steklenih izdelkov v mednarodno uspešno podjetje, ki temelji na Trendglasu, edinstveni vrsti stekla, odpornega na visoke temperature.
With certified quality, continuously improving technology and long-standing experience with heat resistant glass, the company is able to guarantee high-quality products for its customers.

In 1994, the family began to trade with the Schott Group.
Leta 1994 je družina začela poslovati s skupino Schott.
After Schott stopped the production for domestic glass in Jena, they bought some of their machines, moulding forms … and created their new brand, produced in Sopron (Hungary).
Ko je podjetje Schott ustavilo proizvodnjo gospodinjskega stekla v Jeni, so od njih odkupili nekaj strojev in kalupov … ter oblikovali novo blagovno znamko s proizvodnjo v Sopronu (Madžarska).
A new company has been established in Jena (Germany) for the trading business.
V Jeni (Nemčija) so ustanovili novo trgovsko podjetje.
Entrepreneurs are important to society, because …… they walk down new and unknown paths, which others can then follow.

“Never stop, always continue or start again.”
„Nikdar se ne ustavi, vselej nadaljuj ali začni znova.“
Twenty-eight women from Syros, a Greek island suffering from endemic unemployment, decided to create a workers’ cooperative in 2000.
Osemindvajset žensk z grškega otoka Ano Syros, kjer je vladala endemična nezaposlenost, se je leta 2000 odločilo, da ustanovijo delavsko zadrugo.
Most of them were housewives without any specific skills or education, yet with the assistance of EU funding they have taken control of their present and future.
Med njimi je bilo največ gospodinj brez posebnih znanj ali izobrazbe, toda ob finančni pomoči EU so prevzele nadzor nad svojo sedanjostjo in prihodnostjo.
What were your biggest obstacles when starting your own business? People’s prejudice towards us as women.
Katere so bile največje ovire, ko ste ustanavljali lastno podjetje?Predsodki ljudi do nas kot žensk.
We had to overcome the mistrust of the local market operators and the closed-minded attitude of suppliers in working with female entrepreneurs who lacked qualifications, education and training.
Morale smo premagati nezaupanje vodstev lokalnih tržnic in zaprtost dobaviteljev pri sodelovanju s podjetnicami, katerim je primanjkovalo kvalifikacij, izobrazbe in usposobljenosti.
The cooperative produces sweets and provides catering for parties locally and on other islands.
V okviru zadruge pripravljajo in dostavljajo sladice in drugo hrano za zabave na njihovem in drugih otokih.
They have opened a successful restaurant selling traditional Greek food at low prices, which is possible due to the cooperative nature of the workers.
Članice so odprle uspešno restavracijo, kjer nudijo tradicionalne grške jedi po zmernih cenah, kar omogoča zadružno povezovanje zaposlenih.
In developing your product/service (s), have you been using any national/regional support schemes/programmes for small and medium-sized enterprises?
Ali ste v razvoju proizvodov in storitev uporabljali kakšen nacionalen ali regionalen podporni program za MSP?
We were luckily involved in the EQUAL programme for the promotion of women entrepreneurship (“initiative NOW”for the start up of social enterprises, “Emigrants’ agro jobs”for the training of foreign ladies and project EXADA for the publication of a book with local recipes in English and Greek).
Imeli smo srečo, da smo bili vključeni v pobudo EQUAL za pospeševanje ženskega podjetništva (pobudo NOW za ustanovitev socialnih podjetij, program za zaposlovanje priseljencev v kmetijstvu za usposabljanje tujih delavk in projekt EXADA za objavo knjige lokalnih receptov v angleškem in grškem jeziku).
Their activity permitted also to restore part of the old deserted catholic monastery of St Sebastian, the abandoned cells and warehouses of which were used to store ovens, kitchens, refrigerators and other electrical devices …
Dejavnost zadruge je privedla do obnove dela starega opuščenega katoliškega samostana Sv. Sebastijana, kjer so v zapuščenih celicah in skladiščih uredili shrambo pečic, kuhinjskega pohištva, hladilnikov in drugih električnih naprav.
Entrepreneurs are important to society because …They create growth and employment.
Podjetniki so pomembni za družbo, ker…Ustvarjajo rast in zaposlitev.
Being a cooperative we offer security to employees who are at the same time members.
Kot zadruga nudimo varnost zaposlenim, ki so hkrati tudi člani zadruge.
Being a non-profit enterprise we also have the status of offering proximity services to people in need.
Kot neprofitna organizacija ponujamo tudi storitve sosedske pomoči vsem, ki jih potrebujejo.
My advice to an entrepreneur – how to overcome a crisis …To start again immediately after a failure and to always offer high quality goods or services.
Moj nasvet podjetnikom – kako prebroditi krizo…Po neupehu takoj začeti znova in vselej zagotavljati visoko kakovost dobrin ali storitev.

“Innovation is creativityapplied to good common sense.”
„Inovativnost je ustvarjalnost, povezana z zdravo pametjo.“
The event that inspired me to start my own business … … was spending one month volunteering in a nursing home in Brazil after 20 years as a bank director.
Dogodek, ki me je navdihnil za ustanovitev lastnega podjetja,……mesec dni sem preživela v domu za bolniško nego v Braziliji po tem, ko sem bila dvajset let direktorica banke.
I realised how helpful I could have been if I had been working and helping marginalised people at the same time!
Ugotovila sem, kako koristna bi lahko bila v tem času, če bi ob delu v banki pomagala tudi ljudem z obrobja družbe!
Officina Creativa’s new brand, “Made in Carcere” (“Made in Jail”), gives a ‘second chance’ to both the materials used to make their products as well as to the people who make them.
Nova blagovna znamka organizacije Officina Creativa „Made in Carcere“ („Narejeno v zaporu“) ponuja „drugo priložnost“ tako materialom, uporabljenim za izdelavo njihovih izdelkov, kot ljudem, ki jih izdelujejo.
The non-profit social cooperative contributes to the training and rehabilitation of female prisoners, who are engaged in the production of fabric shopping bags made out of refined and recycled materials.
Neprofitna socialna zadružna organizacija prispeva k usposabljanju in rehabilitaciji zapornic, ki se ukvarjajo z izdelavo tkanih nakupovalnih torb iz prečiščenih recikliranih materialov.
This gives the women the chance to build their job skills while improving their chances of re-integrating into the social and working worlds once they return to their communities.
To je priložnost, da zapornice pridobivajo delovne spretnosti, hkrati pa si izboljšujejo možnosti za ponovno vključitev v družbeno in delovno okolje, ko se bodo vrnile v svoje skupnosti.
What is the specific quality that distinguishes your products and services from its competitors? Our products and services tell the story of marginalised people who have gained a second chance!
Katera posebna lastnost razlikuje vaš proizvod od konkurenčnih?Naši izdelki in storitve pripovedujejo zgodbo o ljudeh z obrobja, ki so dobili drugo priložnost!
Our products are‘handmade with values’and transmit the significance of female prisoners using recycled waste materials to create accessories with passion and creativity.
Naši izdelki so„ročna dela z vrednostjo“ in odsevajo pomen, ki ga ima za zapornice izdelovanje modnih dodatkov iz recikliranih odpadnih materialov s strastjo in ustvarjalnostjo.
A further initiative of Officina Creativa is the ER-RE, the “Desk for Easy Renewable Energy”.
Še ena pobuda organizacije Officina Creativa je ER-RE, „Pisarna za enostavno obnovljivo energijo“.
This desk is dedicated to raising awareness about saving energy and the use of renewable energy sources.
Pisarna je namenjena osveščanju ljudi o varčevanju z energijo in uporabi obnovljivih virov energije.
To reach its goals, the ER-RE uses social communication activities and provides assistance to people who must make technical and financial choices in planning and implementing energy-using systems.
Da bi dosegla svoje cilje, pisarna ER-RE vodi družbene komunikacijske dejavnosti in nudi pomoč vsem tistim, ki morajo sprejeti tehnične in finančne odločitve v zvezi z načrtovanjem in izvedbo energijskih sistemov.
Has the recent economic crisis affected your business strategy in any way?Our strategy was born out of the crisis: the economic crisis and the crisis of values.
Ali je zadnja ekonomska kriza kakor koli vplivala na vašo poslovno strategijo?Naša strategija se je rodila iz krize: gospodarske krize in krize vrednot.
We focus on the need to ‘save’ by using existing, renewable sources of energy (the sun), recycled waste materials (bags and other materials) and ‘marginalised’ human resources (female prisoners).
Osredotočeni smo na potrebo po„ohranjanju“ in tako uporabljamo obstoječe, obnovljive vire energije (sonce), reciklirane odpadne materiale (torbe in druge materiale) in človeške vire „z obrobja“ (zapornice).
Entrepreneurs are important to society because …… of their capacity to innovate and for being the drivers of development.
Podjetniki so pomembni za družbo, ker……zaradi njihovih inovativnih zmožnosti in zato, ker so gonilna sila napredka.

“Believe in yourself and your abilities.”
„Verjemite vase in v svoje sposobnosti.“
What was your biggest obstacle or fear when starting your own business? Finding a bank that believed in and accepted my idea and investment.

Starting out by laying parquet flooring on his own for ten years, Patrick Deumer was presented with the new challenge of building a terrace in 1999.
Patrick Deumer je samostojno polagal parket že deset let, ko je leta 1999 sprejel nov izziv in zgradil teraso.
Although everything went well at first, three months later many of the planks shifted, breaking the screws.
Čeprav je šlo na začetku vse gladko, so se po treh mesecih deske zvile in polomile vijake. Ta dogodek ga je navdahnil, da je oblikoval sistem za pritrjevanje lesa, ki je bil trajen in hkrati estetski. G.
By investing in a completely automated production line, he is able to respond quickly to the demand with only a handful of employees.
Z vlaganjem v popolnoma avtomatizirano proizvodno linijo se lahko na povpraševanje odzove tudi z le peščico zaposlenih.
Why are entrepreneurs important to society?Entrepreneurs are the motors of the economy and the creators of tomorrow’s world.
Naša rešitev je, da obiščemo več sejmov, poiščemo več strank, ki bodo sčasoma zamenjale večje, ki stagnirajo…
In 2009, Mr Deumer was awarded the Great Prize of Walloon Entrepreneurship, in the “Enterprise starter” category.
Leta 2009 je g. Deumer prejel Veliko nagrado valonskega podjetništva v kategoriji „novoustanovljena podjetja“.
My advice to those who are considering starting their own business is …… to prepare a realistic business plan and respect your commitments.
Moj nasvet tistim, ki razmišljajo o lastnem poslu, je……pripravite realističen poslovni načrt in spoštujte svoje obljube.

“Follow your vision, set your goals and stick to them.”
„Sledi svoji viziji, zastavi si cilje in se jih drži.“
The event that inspired me to start my own business … … was the entry of Cyprus into the European Union and the need to comply with European legislation that deals with hazardous waste.

George Fantaros’ company started as a medical (clinical) waste sterilisation service and quickly evolved into a hazardous waste management service.
George Fantaros je svoje podjetje ustanovil, da bi ponujalo storitve za sterilizacijo medicinskih (kliničnih) odpadkov, leto se je pa hitro razvilo v podjetje za upravljanje z nevarnimi odpadki.
The operation is a typical case of “small is beautiful and feasible” providing a solution to the island-state’s problem and practically putting a stop to the hassle and cost of exporting small quantities of waste to larger countries for disposal.

Why are entrepreneurs important for society?In my opinion entrepreneurs are an energetic component of society, which can contribute the most to its development.
Zakaj so podjetniki pomembni za družbo?Menim, da so podjetniki energičen del družbe, ki lahko največ prispevajo k njenemu razvoju.

When Ségolène Finet started mamaNANA, an e-Boutique devoted to the fashion needs of breastfeeding mothers, many people were doubtful: Why start a breastfeeding clothing company in a country that has one of the lowest breastfeeding rates in Europe?
Ko je Ségolène Finet odprla spletni butik „mamaNANA“, ki zadovoljuje modne zahteve doječih mater, je veliko ljudi dvomilo: zakaj ustanoviti podjetje z oblačili za doječe matere v državi, kjer je delež doječih mater med najnižjimi v Evropi?
What inspired you to start your own business?
Kaj vas je navdihnilo za lasten posel?
In California, breastfeeding was the norm in my circle, and I happily breastfed my first child.
V mojem krogu prijateljev v Kaliforniji je bilo dojenje pravilo in prvega otroka sem dojila z veseljem.
Then back in France, I saw that chic women did not breastfeed!
Ko pa sem se vrnila v Francijo, sem videla, da elegantne ženske niso dojile!
By providing fashionable nursing lingerie and clothes, I wanted to break cultural barriers and enable women to nurse in style.
Z oblikovanjem modnega spodnjega perila in oblačil za dojenje sem želela porušiti kulturne pregrade in omogočiti ženskam, da dojijo s stilom.
What is the specific quality that distinguishes your product from its competitors?
Z zgornjimi deli oblačil in oblekami mamaNANA so lahko ženske oblečene tako modno, kot si le želijo, hkrati pa lahko diskretno in udobno dojijo.
You would never guess that our tops and dresses are nursing clothes, because they are as fashionable as regular clothes.
Vsa oblačila so videti kot običajna, posebnost je le v prilagojenem kroju, ki omogoča otroku preprost dostop do dojke.
