According to the European Innovation Scoreboard 2025, Slovakia's innovation performance stands at just 62.6% of the EU average. The challenge is often not a lack of ideas, but getting them to customers, investors and international markets.

Launching in Bratislava, the project is owned by UAE-based Tahaluf and led in Slovakia by Swiss company Innixus. We spoke with CEO Simon Reiniche, Head of Operations Alexandra Procházková and Head of Marketing Barbora Cisáriková about why Bratislava, and why now. In the latest episode of Slovak Sound Check, we expand our Slovak fruit vocabulary beyond the market basics.

Potrebuje alebo nepotrebuje Bratislava ďalšiu spaľovňu? Aj keď minister životného prostredia ešte pred rokom hovoril novému projektu spoločnosti Slovnaft nie, len pred pár týždňami jeho rezort vydal k celej veci kladné stanovisko. Podľa environmentálneho experta Ladislava Hegyiho, ktorý bol hosťom video relácie Index s Evou Frantovou, minister Taraba robí presný opak toho, čo sľuboval ešte donedávna - že zo Slovenska nedovolí urobiť odpadkový kôš Európy. „Krátko po tom, ako prišiel do funkcie, podpísal súhlasné stanovisko na výstavbu spaľovne pri obci Drieňov, len tridsať kilometrov od košickej spaľovne, ktorá svoju kapacitu ešte ani dnes nemá plne využitú. A teraz dovolil ďalšiu podobnú vec v prípade Slovnaftu,“ vysvetľuje. Proti spaľovni sa pritom búria aj mestské časti, ktorých sa projekt dotkne, ale aj magistrát mesta ako taký a aj obyčajní ľudia. Vyše 18-tisíc ich totiž podpísalo petíciu na zastavenie projektu. Prekáža im viacero vecí vrátane dosahov na stav ovzdušia v Bratislave, vzdialenosť od zastavaných oblastí, ale aj fakt, že Slovnaft plánuje do spaľovne zvážať odpad zo spádových oblastí, čo podľa Hegyiho nedáva ekonomický ani environmentálny význam. „Spaľovňa bude úplne mimo územia, odkiaľ by sa mali do nej zvážať odpady. Predstavte si, že smetiarske autá budú musieť prejsť desiatky kilometrov. Niektoré mestá sú totiž vzdialené 170 až 190 kilometrov a Slovnaft ich ani nemá nijako podchytené,“ dodáva Hegyi. V rozhovore sa dozviete: Aký veľký nesúlad je medzi tým, čo tvrdil Tomáš Taraba a čo reálne robí, prečo nedáva zmysel stavať spaľovňu len niekoľko metrov od už existujúcej, prečo zvážanie odpadu zo spádovej oblasti nie je domyslené, aké dosahy môže mať spaľovňa na už aj tak znečistené ovzdušie v Bratislave, na čo by sme sa ako krajina mali v prípade odpadu sústrediť radšej.

Amsterdam became the centre of the European cocktail world, with pop-ups, parties, brand activations and some of the best bartenders in Europe gathering across the city.Athens had a huge showing, with Line taking the No.1 spot and The Bar in Front of The Bar coming in at No.2, underlining just how strong the Greek cocktail scene has become.London remains a major force in the best bars in Europe conversation, with bars including The Connaught Bar, Satan's Whiskers, Tayēr + Elementary, Panda & Sons, Waltz, Kwãnt Mayfair, Three Sheets Soho and Scarfes Bar all appearing on the list.Panda & Sons deserve a special mention, coming in at No.20 and also picking up the Siete Misterios Best Cocktail Menu Award.Barcelona continues to be one of Europe's most important cocktail cities, with Sips, Paradiso, Aldea, Boadas, Foco and others showing the depth of the city's bar scene.Central and Eastern Europe are becoming increasingly important on the cocktail map, with strong placements from bars in Bratislava, Tirana, Prague and Krakow.Sustainability, fermentation, low-waste practices, hyper-local ingredients and strong storytelling are clearly shaping modern cocktail culture.At the same time, the best cocktail bars are still the ones that combine technical skill with warmth, simplicity, personality, atmosphere and genuine hospitality.HighlightsLanding in a sun-soaked Amsterdam and heading straight into a packed few days of cocktail events.Visiting Advocatuur at Rosewood Amsterdam, a beautiful cocktail bar inside the former Palace of Justice, with thoughtful drinks, warm hospitality and a strong sense of place.Stopping by The Flying Dutchman at Sofitel Legend The Grand for a Gin Mare event with the team from Boadas Barcelona.Bumping into Simone Caporale from Sips Barcelona and lining up what will hopefully become a future episode of The Cocktail Academy Podcast.Attending The Cambridge Public House activation, complete with great drinks, a packed room, big energy and a sleeping Jack Russell in the middle of the madness.Finishing the first night at Belly of the Beast, with rum, gongs, colour and full tiki-style energy.Taking part in the Meet the Bartenders event, speaking with teams from Super Lyan, Tjoget, TAG, Aldea and Panda & Sons.Experiencing the main Europe's 50 Best Bars 2026 ceremony at De Kromhouthal, with the green carpet, packed room, brand activations, cocktails and the live countdown.Seeing Line in Athens crowned The Best Bar in Europe 2026.Celebrating Panda & Sons coming in at No.20 and winning the Siete Misterios Best Cocktail Menu Award.Ending the trip at the rooftop closing party at LuminAir, with sunshine, DJs, barbecue, sushi, cocktails and views over Amsterdam.LinksThe World's 50 Best Bars:https://www.theworlds50best.com/bars/The Cocktail Academy on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/welovecocktails/The Cocktail Academy on Tiktok Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/welovecocktailsx/https://www.tiktok.com/@welovecocktailsxThe Cocktail Academy:https://thecocktailacademy.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Hosťkou epizódy je Illah van Oijen, fotografka, organizátorka, spolutvorkyňa Dobrého trhu a jedna z ľudí, ktorí dlhodobo menia spôsob, akým Bratislava premýšľa o verejnom priestore, komunitách, susedstve, lokálnej ekonomike a mestskom živote. Rozprávame sa o tom, prečo Holanďania žijú s otvorenými oknami a Slováci za dvojmetrovými plotmi, kedy sa v Bratislave zlomilo premýšľanie o verejnom priestore, ako vznikal Dobrý trh, prečo nestačí iba nadávať na škaredú zastávku a ako sa z malých susedských a kultúrnych iniciatív stáva reálna zmena mesta.Ak sa vám epizóda páči, necenzurovaná verzia s otázkami od patreonov (o 28 minút dlhšia) je na:

やすよさんのインスタグラムJoin our community Japanese Together「旅モード」と「日常モード」の違いは、本当に場所によって決まると思いますか。建築や空間のデザインが、人の感情や考え方に与える影響についてどう思いますか。「世界があなたの庭」という考え方から、どのような生き方を想像しますか。旅行中に仕事を続けるスタイルには、どんなメリットやデメリットがあると思いますか。歴史や芸術を事前に学んでから旅行することは、体験をどのように変えると思いますか。In this episode, Yasuyo returns as a guest to talk about her busy April and her recent trip through Central Europe. She visited Vienna in Austria, Budapest in Hungary, and also took a day trip to Bratislava in Slovakia. Although the trip lasted only about ten days, it felt unique because she mixed travel with online teaching. Sometimes she would go to an opera or museum and then teach a lesson shortly afterward, creating a strange feeling where travel and daily life blended together.A major highlight of the trip was architecture. Yasuyo was especially inspired by the work of Austrian architect Otto Wagner in Vienna and by the “House of Music” designed by Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto in Budapest. She describes how certain spaces gave her emotional energy and made her reflect on ideas like freedom, perspective, and how “the world can become your garden.”The conversation also explores the meaning of travel itself. Yasuyo talks about how continuing her normal routines abroad—such as working, going to concerts, or even using saunas—made her question what really separates “travel mode” from “daily life.” The episode becomes a thoughtful discussion about mindset, borders, culture, history, and the joy of seeing the world with curiosity.久しぶり（ひさしぶり）- after a long time落ち着く（おちつく）- to calm down録音（ろくおん）- recording日帰り（ひがえり）- day trip首都（しゅと）- capital city感覚（かんかく）- sensation, feeling歴史（れきし）- history都（みやこ）- capital実験的（じっけんてき）- experimental体力的（たいりょくてき）- physically深夜（しんや）- late at night寝不足（ねぶそく）- lack of sleep憧れる（あこがれる）- to admire建築家（けんちくか）- architect郵便局（ゆうびんきょく）- post office豪華（ごうか）- luxurious地下鉄（ちかてつ）- subway溶け合う（とけあう）- to blend together文化施設（ぶんかしせつ）- cultural facility緩やか（ゆるやか）- gentle, gradual景色（けしき）- scenery意識（いしき）- awareness引き寄せられる（ひきよせられる）- to be attracted温泉（おんせん）- hot spring哲学的（てつがくてき）- philosophical日常（にちじょう）- everyday life配慮（はいりょ）- consideration移動（いどう）- movement, travel雰囲気（ふんいき）- atmosphere賑やか（にぎやか）- lively

RERUN: On the occasion of International Women in Diplomacy Day (June 24), a public discussion was held at the European Parliament Liaison Office in Bratislava. In this follow-up, we bring you highlights from the event and conversations with both the organizers and guests about the importance of women's representation in diplomacy and other high-level leadership positions. Among the speakers are former Slovak ambassador, former State Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, and two-time Permanent Representative of Slovakia to the OECD in Paris, Ingrid Brocková; former ambassador, chief of protocol, and director of the Press Department at the Office of President Michal Kováč in the 1990s, Anna Tureničová; and Zuzana Maďarová, a researcher at the Faculty of Social and Economic Sciences at Comenius University. Together with the event organizers, they share personal stories from their diplomatic careers, reflect on how the profession has evolved over the years, and speak candidly about the challenges and progress in achieving gender equality in diplomacy and society at large. The latest episode of the Slovak Sound Check introduce the conjugation of the verb mať – to have.

Show Notes:River cruising has officially gone mainstream — and a recent US News & World Report ranking proves it. For the first time, they ranked river cruise lines based on expert and traveler ratings, industry awards, pricing, and itineraries. AmaWaterways took the top spot, followed by Uniworld Boutique and Viking River Cruises. Ryan and Julie dig into what makes river cruising so compelling, and then go beyond the basics to highlight four specialty cruise experiences that match your interests — not just your dates.Christmas Market Cruises If you've ever considered river cruising, this has probably crossed your mind. AmaWaterways' Taste of Christmas sailings take you along the Rhine from Amsterdam to Basel, stopping in Cologne, multiple German towns, and Strasbourg, France — famously described as the real-life town from Beauty and the Beast. Each stop features multiple Christmas markets, onboard holiday celebrations, and seasonal local events. Pack an extra bag.Golf Cruises AmaWaterways' golf itineraries let you play up to five championship courses in Europe with a dedicated guide, luxury Mercedes transfers, club care, and lunch with beer and wine included at each course. Along the Seine, courses include Paris Saint-Germain Golf Club — ranked 14th in Europe and host to the French Open nine times. You'll go home with a scorecard and some serious bragging rights.Oktoberfest & Beer Cruises This seven-night Danube sailing from Germany to Slovakia weaves Oktoberfest experiences into every port. Think underground tours of historic beer tunnels, monastic brewery visits, cellar tastings, and — yes — a hike up to a castle (optional, apparently). The beer comes to you in Passau, Linz, Vienna, Bratislava, and Budapest.Smithsonian Journeys For the intellectually curious traveler, AmaWaterways partners with the Smithsonian Institution to offer sailings with two onboard Smithsonian experts for the entire cruise. Exclusive excursions include a behind-the-scenes tour of Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum, a visit to the EU Parliament in Strasbourg, and a guided tour of the UNESCO-designated Neuf-Brisach Citadel. Same river, deeper experience.Where in the World? Ryan is sending a couple on an incredible Canadian Rockies adventure — Rocky Mountaineer, Banff, Jasper National Park, the Columbia Icefield Skyway, and Glacier National Park in Montana. A trip built for a photography-obsessed traveler and his wife.Next week: stay tuned for another episode of All Things Travel!Wonder and Beyond Travel → wonderandbeyondtravel.comSupport the showLove the podcast?

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast ahead of the US Darts Masters.   The boys kick off the show with a look back at the last week of action on the ProTour and, after winning his seventh and eighth titles in Players Championship 21 and the Slovak Darts Open, will Wessel Nijman become a major champion this season, before giving their thoughts on Players Championship 22 winner Rob Cross, who also made the final in Bratislava at the weekend.   Fred Krueger (18:31) joins the show ahead of making his TV debut in the US Darts Masters later this week. The American looks back on his time in the sport so far, from playing against the PDC professionals around 25 years ago when they played tournaments in North America, taking a long break from the game, and then his son inspiring him to pick up the darts again last year, winning his CDC tour card at Q-School at the start of this year, qualifying for the US Darts Masters and what it means to be playing at Madison Square Garden and on the big stage for the first time.   The boys continue to recap the last week in darts and turn their attention to the PDC Women's Series, with the eight-player line up for this year's Women's World Matchplay now confirmed.   Brayden Hall (51:18) calls in ahead of making his debut in the US Darts Masters this week. The Canadian talks through his career so far, from playing in the PDC World Youth Championship in 2023, coming through the youth ranks back home, winning his CDC tour card for the first time this year, making a final on his first CDC weekend and beating the likes of Stowe Buntz and David Cameron on the way, qualifying for this week's World Series event in New York and how his PDC big-stage debut will form the final few days of a busy stretch of tournaments which also includes competing in the nationals.   Alex and Burton wrap up the show with a look ahead to the North American Darts Championship and predict who will lift the title at Madison Square Garden. *** Get your own Alex Moss replica shirt (as worn by our co-host at the Las Vegas Open 2026) from DJD here!

Petržalka, nemocnica na Kramároch či dnes už neexistujúci Istropolis patria medzi stavby, ktoré sú už desaťročia predmetom verejných sporov. Často bývajú označované za symboly architektonických zlyhaní socializmu alebo za zdroje krízy vizuálnej identity Bratislavy. Na druhej strane máme stavby, najmä z medzivojnového obdobia, ako napríklad Avion, ktoré široká verejnosť naopak prijíma. Prečo je to tak? Na prvú by sme mohli povedať, že je to celkom prirodzene tým, že zatiaľ čo Avion pripomína obdobie našej prvej demokracie, naopak Kramáre či Petržalka sú spomienkou na totalitu. V aktuálnej epizóde podcastu toto tvrdenie sproblematizujeme: budeme diskutovať o tom, či môžu tieto stavby za režimy, v ktorých vznikli. Pozrieme sa na to, aké boli pôvodné ambície autoriek a autorov týchto projektov a ako podobu týchto stavieb ovplyvnili politické zásahy, ekonomické limity či zmeny režimov. Tento podcast je záznamom z diskusie na tému Kríza mestskej identity v minulosti a dnes, ktorá sa uskutočnila 13. júna 2026 na festivale Sútok, multižánrovom festivale, každoročne organizovanom Múzeom mesta Bratislava. Historička Agáta Šústová Drelová sa rozprávala s historičkou a architektkou Laurou Krištekovou a kunsthistoričkou Katarínou Haberlandovou z oddelenia dejín architektúry na Historickom ústave SAV, kde sa venujú výskumu histórie, teórie a plánovania architektúry 20. a 21. storočia a aktívne pôsobia aj na poli ochrany moderného architektonického dedičstva. Tento podcast vzniká vďaka podpore JUDr. Daga Vaškora, zberateľa, fanúšika histórie, fanúšika nášho podcastu. Ďakujeme za podporu.

REMINDER: ONE WEEK TO GET THE VALIANT KICKSTARTER FUNDED Things Discussed: The Weddle comment: What does Bryce have to show this year to show this is working? Craig: If they win more than 8 games. Brian: Get the running game down. If he can read out an option everything becomes easier for him. Early Vince Young. Seth: He's got to show us his Detroit Hustles Harder side. There's a misconception in sports that money equals softness, but Underwood was the #1 prospect in his class because he was as much a grinder as he was talented. Let that show, and he'll win hearts and minds. Get to where JJ was as a true sophomore. Terrelle Pryor Year 2. Sam: Shoulda paid for a QB coach last year. He's got to stop looking at the rush. Statistically he was better than he looked. We're overrating his dismal Spring Game performance and underrating how often he had touchdown passes that his receivers botched or interceptions they didn't fight for. Andrew Marsh wasn't even looking for the ball early in the season. JJ Buchanan isn't missing the plays Freddie Moore didn't make. Whittingham recruiting: They're serious and they're recruiting the way they do, but it's interesting that they're also doing things that Harbaugh did. Tank (metal name!) Watson wasn't a Utah-style recruitment; it's a Harbaugh trick to go to big Southern schools and look at the late-developing fifth guy the scouts aren't watching because there are 4- and 5-stars all over the field. Is he a pure linebacker? Might be an edge, might be a Cole Sullivan. Sam: Dakota Guerrant is leaning Oregon but Michigan won't give up on him; they won't lose an NIL battle, but they need to prove they can pass the ball this fall. Gabe Osborne is the best player in the country; don't care what it costs. Like that he committed to hometown Oklahoma instead of Ohio State. Sam shares how Michigan flipped an NCAA decision to screw over SMSB by inviting all the campers to Michigan. Reminds us of the early Harbaugh alacrity in recruiting. Milan Momcilovic: Sam is down on Pope, thinks you don't go to Kentucky for any reason but money. Brian gives him a mulligan because UK was injured; Sam says if they don't go further than Texas this year he's fired. Funny that BYU has money as soon as Pope leaves. Michigan to play an outdoor basketball game at the Marlins stadium, because Fox was mad they didn't get to broadcast it if they played at MSG. B10 has rights to those games. Whatever the rationale is, it's a sad statement about how the sport is structured. The latest frontier is streaming. Seth thinks this is a very bad turn; how many streaming services do you need to sign up for to watch every Michigan football and basketball game this year? Worse, putting games behind paywalls is putting them out of reach of fans, especially young adults, who will find something else, cannibalizing your future (and destroying smaller market teams) for a few bucks today. Can't fault Dusty May and Michigan because they're just playing the game. I do fault the commissioner of the Big Ten and the TV execs who can't see past what money sticks to their fingers. Seth Dream: Cut out the TV guys, develop your own streaming network and keep all of the money. If you put a tenth of the money the TV guys get into production you'd have it. Brian: You're crazy; they outsource everything, and when they don't they create Big Ten Plus. Seth: not crazy, because TV takes a greater share now than they ever have before, because streaming is a new frontier that hasn't calcified yet, sports fans would rather install a free app where they could watch all of their games for free than six apps they have to sign up for. What makes it impossible is Michigan and Ohio State etc. won't like it because it's too fair.
