ABOUT
US
Who are we?
The
Union of Christian Business Executives of Slovenia
(ZKPS), the Slovene branch of UNIAPAC, is a
non-governmental organization established in
1991. Our members are directors of small business
enterprises, leading managers of private, public
companies and governmental institutions, company
board members, entrepreneurs and others. Most
of us are employers. Some of our members are
distinguished public or political personalities.
We support, or are members of various, mainly
center-right, political parties, but share the
Christian values and the Union mission.
The members of ZKPS - UNIAPAC Slovenia are committed
Christians who accept and practice the Christian
social principles and in their professional
life they profess and promote the fundamental
principles of a just social -market oriented
economy. New members are recruited among small
and medium enterprise owners as well as managers
of larger companies who demonstrate a high level
of ethical responsibility through their work.
The membership in ZKPS is mandatory and the
eligibility for membership does not depend on
the citizenship.
Since 1993 the Union has been a member of the
International Union of Christian Business Executives
- UNIAPAC with the main office in Brussels.
Being a part of a world-wide association of
business executives is extremely important for
Slovene executives especially in the process
of Slovenia's accession to the European Union.

How

and thus facilitate their potential cooperation.
Consequently, members can support each other.
We organize meetings, visits with professional
background, entertainment and other events.
We also promote the Union, its values and aims
as well as its members.
Some activities tend to be focused on young
prospective entrepreneurs. We want to encourage
them to decide for a business career and to
