is the longest running large-scale nautical event in Slovenia. With its long tradition, Internautica has undoubtedly surpassed the borders of the nation and is held in great esteem throughout Europe and most recently, also around the world. Internautica, therefore, is not only a Boat Show exhibiting vessels and setting the latest trends in maritime equipment. It is, above all, a showcase of Slovenian success in business acumen, as well as in tourist attractions. Both of these aspects have an impact on the development of tourism and on the strengthening of the economy in our region.
Borut Pahor
Prime Minister of the Republic of Slovenia
Honorary Chairman of Internautica 2011.
The local coastal tourism has already reached a prestigious level therefore, an event such as Internautica gives it added value by affording visitors to Slovenia the opportunity to experience Slovenian excellence in the nautical industry. Therefore, Internautica and Slovenian tourism complement each other well. The Slovenian Government closely studies and supports all activities and events which contribute to our common progress. We are enthused by the fact that this year’s Internautica will dedicate much of its program to actively promoting environmentally friendly technological development. This is incredibly important for our commitment to sustainable development.I can only wish for more projects of this kind. The kind of projects which mean a step forward for the Slovenian economy and entrepreneurship, as well as an encouragement for development of new ideas by the best innovators around. I wish to thank the organizers of Internautica, all Slovenian manufacturers and innovators, and last but not least, the local tourist workers, who have once again prepared one of the best nautical events in Europe. With your continuing dedication and work you demonstrate that Slovenia, as a maritime country, can be an important meeting point of international activities in the nautical field and maritime industry."
