Two TEPSA members, the Centre of International Relations (CIR) at the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, and the Faculty of Economics, University of Podgorica, Montenegro, have successfully completed a bilateral research project ‘Transfer of Slovenian Experience in Building National Innovation System of Montenegro, with emphasis on increasing the competitiveness’. The project was funded through the bilateral agreement on scientific cooperation of Slovenia and Montenegro. The teams from the two partners prepared a policy brief, which was presented to relevant ministries, students, and media at a workshop at the Faculty of Economics, University of Podgorica. The two partners are also working on a joint publication as a result of this project.
