Government officials were briefed on challenges that Zasavje faces as a region that used to be a mining and energy heavyweight but which is now lagging behind despite a strong high-tech cluster.
Economy Minister Zdravko Počivalšek said Zasavje would get a third of the EUR 250 million in just transition funds for the restructuring of mining regions, and the ministry would also earmark a million euro for better management of business zones. Companies from the region can hope for a share of the EU’s recovery and resilience funds as well.
