This article focuses on online systems for conference administration. The aim is to analyse the available systems for academic conferences administration. The theoretical part describes the process of conference organization, user roles and the process of adding articles. The current state of the use of conferencing systems was determined by analysing secondary sources. We analysed the most used conference management systems and compared their functionality. The research compares different systems, revealing the shortcomings of each system but also their strengths. It shows the differences in paid and unpaid conferencing systems and compares the functionality between the most used paid and unpaid systems. Each conference organiser has different requirements for the system. Based on the comparisons, we draw conclusions that show the advantages and disadvantages of each system.

The article addresses the issue of managing the initial stages of the information system life cycle. The existence of the position of CEO and its inclusion in the organizational structure is important for the management of the entire information system. The article monitors the inclusion of the CEO in the organizational structure of non-agricultural and agricultural enterprises. Equally important for a quality information system is the existence of an information strategy. The correct classification of the CEO and the existence of an information strategy has a positive effect on increasing the competitiveness of the company.

The Slovak spirits industry represents a stable part of the national food and beverage industry. Its position was determined as competitive on the national and international market by national authorities. The manuscript investigates the position of the industry on the domestic and international markets. Quantitative data relating to the number of enterpúrises and employment show positive change within the observed period of time. However, the production was basically on the same level in the last observed year 2018 compared to the year 2018. Our investigation of the domestic market shows a sign of premiumization of spirits produced within the Slovak Republic with a focus on vodka and spirits aromatized with Juniperus. The international trade with Slovak spirits shows decreasing competitiveness among the dominant categories. There were two of three main categories competitive on the European Single market while there was only one competitive category in the last observed year 2018.

The importance of the research stems from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the experience economy in general, and the tourism industry in particular, as well as changes in tourism's contribution to the global economy. The objective of the research is to evaluate how the coronavirus pandemic has influenced the experience economy through the prism of changes it might cause in the operations of tourism enterprises. The object of the research is how the tourism market functions in terms of a pandemic. The subject of the research is the potential influence of the coronavirus pandemic on tourism operations. The following research methods are applied: tabular, graphical, statistical, abstract-logical, method of comparative analysis, method of synthesis, survey, documentary analysis, cross-analysis. The prerequisites for the experience economy's formation are described; tourism as a part of the experience economy is portrayed. The coronavirus pandemic potential influence of the experience economy is assessed; tourism was evaluated as a part of the global economy by showing its contribution to global GDP and share in the global world’s exports. The evaluation of the carried out survey is given in order to assess society’s response to the changes in travel norms due to COVID-19 and to understand what peculiarities tourism firms should consider. The critical issues that tourism enterprises must address are: a significant decrease in local and international travel (due to governmental restrictions) despite their revenue level; growing demand for promotions and sales despite tourist enterprise losses during the COVID-19 pandemic; and the emergence of a number of formalities as a result of the pandemic. Even though given matters are growing, the pandemic has stimulated a desire for real experience among the population. Weighing up all the arguments, we suggest consideration of cancellation policies, refund procedures, and different insurance possibilities as the directions for further research in the given field.

This article aims to determine the competitiveness of Slovak agri-food products. The article applied a comparative advantage (RCA) index and Lafay Index (LFI). The monitoring period was from 2011 to 2020. The Slovak Republic has long been competitive in trade in live animals, cereals, and oilseeds. Of food products, we are only competitive in sugar and confectionery, milk products and malt, as well as in milk and dairy products and cocoa products. Exports are dominated by lower value-added products, with higher value-added products predominating on the import side. This is ultimately reflected in the ever-deepening passive trade balance of the Slovak Republic in trade in agricultural and food products. Slovakia has a trade structure oriented on trade flows of old EU members. These interpretations provide policymakers with information on Agri-trade competitiveness.

In the proposed paper, the issues of self-evaluation in the context of vocational subject teachers’ digital competencies are elaborated with an accent placed on the currently applied reference frameworks in the European environment. Special attention is paid to the DigCompEdu reference framework, within which digital competencies are considered among teachers’ key competencies in the current information society. From among the number of reference frameworks, we mention ECDL – European Computer Driving Licence, as well as ISTE and MENTEP standards. Particularly, the questions of educational transformation in the context of distance teaching and opportunities for improving the quality of the teaching profession in the information society are dealt with. Self-evaluation is presented as a dynamic process of a changing set of interconnected activities, which are in mutual interaction. The topic is discussed in the context of the European environment having an impact on education in Slovakia.
