Concretely (Slovene: Konkretno) is a liberal political party in Slovenia led by former Minister of Economical Development and Technology Zdravko Počivalšek. Founding congress took place on 4 December 2021 in Celje. Concretely is a result of a merger between the Modern Centre Party (SMC) and Economic Activity Party (GAS). It is a member of Let's Connect Slovenia alliance.[1]
History
At Počivalšek's takeover on the lead of the political party in 2019 he announced consolidation of SMC party. On SMC congress on 16 September Počivalšek announced a fusion with GAS, which was led by the president of the National Council of Slovenia, Alojz Kovšca. Delegates of both parties supported the merger, they also announced a merger with a few[quantify] smaller local parties. GAS made a decision about consolidation in November 2021.
On 4 December 2021, SMC merged with the extra-parliamentary Economic Activity Party.[2] With this, SMC's membership in Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party (ALDE) was automatically terminated.[3] After the process, newly formed Concretely kept its 5 members of the Parliament. Later in December 2021, MP Mateja Udovč left the party,[4] leaving Concretely with 4 members of the parliament (the number which it kept until the 8th term of Slovene National Assembly concluded in 2022).
