Memorial dedicated to our founder Milan Vidmar

On this day 136 years ago, Milan Vidmar, the founder of the Milan Vidmar Electric Power Research Institute, was born. The great Slovenian electrical engineer, scientist, pedagogues, writer, philosopher and world class chess player. Academician Prof. Dr. Milan Vidmar was most certainly one of the most important Slovenian intellectuals of the first half of the 20th century. He was a great intellectual, a volcano of ideas and therefore a person that deserves great attention and admiration. We can only wonder how such a mind can emerge and grow and what decisive impacts influenced it. World technology history remembers him as an exceptional connoisseur of transformers, and he is perceived as the lighthouse to the younger generations and his great successors of our time.
