My name is Matjaz Knez, I am an associate professor, the head of the Laboratory for green technologies in logistics, and also a Vice-dean for Economic Affairs at Faculty of logistics, University of Maribor.

I have many international experiences as a researcher and have been working at institutions outside Slovenia, e.g. lecturer and senior researcher at the Edinburg Napier University, Scotland, UK. I have been involved in many international and national projects, focusing on environmental protection, environmental management, sustainability, environmental innovations, and the development of sustainable supply chains. 

During my research and project work, I have been collaborating with various international partners, including academia, companies, decision-makers, and NGOs. I am a member of the Editorial Board at Elsevier journal – Sustainable Cities and Society. I am continually presenting and disseminating ideas of sustainable transport and sustainability issues at local, regional, and international scientific and professional conferences and symposiums.
