Latvia's startup ecosystem is already making a significant impact.

In 2025, nearly 600 startups operated in Latvia, employing more than 5100 highly skilled professionals, attracting €78 million in private investment, and contributing over €110 million in taxes to the state budget.

As Latvia approaches the parliamentary elections, Latvian Startup Association Startin.LV., together with Startup House Riga, Outlast Fund, and UniLab, is bringing together Prime Minister candidates to discuss what it will take to build more globally successful startups in Latvia, strengthen the country's competitiveness in the Baltics, and understand which political leaders have concrete plans to support the growth of the startup ecosystem.

The discussion will be moderated by journalist Jānis Domburs and streamed live on Delfi.lv.

📅 20 August | 16:00–18:00
📍 Startup House Riga

⚠️ In-person attendance is limited and requires prior registration and confirmation from the organizers. Registering does not guarantee a seat. If you are not confirmed for the in-person event, you'll still be able to watch the discussion live on Delfi.lv.
