February 17, 2026

We are thrilled to officially introduce the 2026 cohort of the ASEF Visit Slovenia Fellowship. After an intensive selection process, these 8 talented individuals have been chosen to represent the next generation of Slovenian excellence from around the globe.

This year’s fellows bring a powerful mix of expertise, spanning across Economics and Finance, Law and Social Sciences, Business, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Physics, and Medicine. They are not just researchers and students; they are ambassadors of the Slovenian diaspora, ready to bridge their international experience with Slovenia’s leading institutions and companies.

  • Ignacio Farah Becaj
  • Geronimo Miguel Comba
  • Nikolas Gestrich
  • Kevyn O’Connell
  • Cecilija Rowane

A sincere thank you to the Government Office for Slovenians Abroad (Urad za Slovence v zamejstvu in po svetu), our dedicated mentors, and our supporters for making these opportunities possible.

Čestitke vsem! ✨
