Named after Mount Triglav, Triglav National Park (TNP) is Slovenia's only national park. Mount Triglav, the highest mountain in the heart of the park and also the highest summit in Slovenia (2864 metres), is also a national symbol which can be found in Slovenia's coat of arms and on its flag. Triglav National Park is managed by the Triglav National Park Public Institute, based in Bled, which operates under the Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning.

Triglav National Park extends along the Italian border and near to the Austrian border in the northwest of Slovenia, that is, in the southeastern section of the Alps. The park's territory is nearly identical with that occupied by the Eastern Julian Alps. The park covers 83,807 ha, or 4% of the territory of Slovenia. It is relished for its pristine nature with beautiful trekking paths into the high mountains, glacier lakes, cosy lodges and shelters and a lot of historic ethnographical and natural monuments. TNP was among the earliest European parks; the first protection by law dates back to 1924 when the Alpine Conservation Park was founded, but the first serious idea for protection came from seismologist and natural scientist Albin Belar already in 1908.

IPF - Institute for Protection of Phonogram Performers and Producers Rights

IPF - Institute for Protection of Phonogram Performers and Producers Rights was established in 1997 as a non-for-profit collecting society for implementation of the rights of performers and producers of phonograms. The organisation collectively asserts and protects the rights of national performers and producers of phonograms and, on the basis of international agreements, also brings into force and protects the rights of foreign performers and producers of phonograms in Slovenia.

The co-founders of the institute are Slovene record companies: Menart Records, Dallas Records, Nika Records, Dots Records and the Slovene Musicians Syndicate (SGS). In the year 2000 the institute was issued a permission by the Slovenian Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) for collective management of the rights in Slovenia.
