  Jožef Stefan International Postgraduate School - Established in 2004 - The initiative for the establishment of IPS came from the JSI. It was strongly supported by industry (Gorenje, Kolektor, Salonit) and an international network of cooperating universities and research institutes from European Union, the USA, Japan, and a number of other countries. Programes: •Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies •Information and Communication Technologies •Ecotechnology

  NANOS SCIENTIFICAE d.o.o. •Multi-purpose magnetic nanoparticles for the R&D in the ares of targeted delivery of medicinal substances, healing of cancer with hyperthermia, MR imaging, diagnosing tumors, separation of proteins in biopharmaceuticals, and nanotoxicology. PARTICULARS d.o.o. •Measuring systems for laboratories which deal with semiconductor detectors for charged particles. Their measuring systems enable much more effective studies of radiation injuries in LHC in Cern. RGA d.o.o. •The company develops highly productive grain genetics (F1 hybrids, lines with desired characteristics, synthetics) for regional and global seed industry. Their new species will be more effective and better adapted to the climatic conditions. Jožef Stefan Institute: Spin-Out companies
