Dear Colleagues,

Let me kindly to invite you to the Košice Economic Forum (KEF), which will take place on Tuesday, October 20, 2026, at 11:00 a.m., in Conference Room No. 001 at UVP Technicom TUKE.

This time, Mr. Michal Horváth (Chief Economist of the National Bank of

Slovakia) will speak at the KEF on the topic “The Slovak Economy Is Barely Growing.”

The presentation will be followed by a discussion, to which I trust participants will gladly contribute thought-provoking questions and opinions.
