About Maribor

Sitting in the wine soaked hills on the Drava River; Maribor is the 2nd largest city in Slovenia and the largest city in the region of Lower Styria. Known as a culinary destination for those into their food in a big way, this is where you can get stuck into iconic dishes such as mushroom soup with buckwheat mush, cheese dumplings and tripe to tickle the taste buds. You can check out the Vinag Wine Cellar with its horde of 5.5 million liters of wine that is home to the oldest grapevine in the world estimated to be 440 years old. You can sit in the town's main square and sip on espresso watching the passing parade of humanity or poke your nose into a 15th Century Maribor Castle house. It's where you will find the University of Maribor plus quite a few other educational institutions, so there are plenty of tech savvy youth heading to coworking venues that have opened up in the city.

Slovenia does have a growing tech startup scene happening with the past few years seeing a few successful Slovenian companies building products and entering the global market place, such as Celtra and Zemata to name a few. These fresh young startups are creating an inspiring role to the tech savvy minds bunkering down in coworking venues around the country causing a startup culture and community to blossom. Slovenia has always had its fair share of high tech companies, but today its seeing a generation of entrepreneurs managing to conquer global markets with niche high-tech engineering products such as ultra-light planes, exhaust systems and solar cells, plus those focusing on software and digital technologies - think social media, mashups and telecommunications. The Slovenia scene is not mature at all, as most startups are in the seed or early stage of development, but it's showing some successes.

The entrepreneurs of Slovenia are actively creating tech communities of which coworking venues are forming a vital part where they can connect, collaborate and get their ideas out into the stratosphere.
