About the EIT Community RIS Hub
The EIT Community RIS Hub in Latvia serves as a vital bridge, connecting the Latvian innovation ecosystem with the extensive resources of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT).
Dedicated to fostering innovation and supporting local businesses, entrepreneurs, and researchers, the Hub, launched on 1st March 2024, works to integrate Latvian stakeholders into the European innovation community, providing access to a wide range of opportunities and resources.
Throughout 2024 and 2025, the EIT Community Officer will host a series of community-building events in cities across Latvia, uniting stakeholders, talent, and aspiring innovators. These events will offer high-quality networking opportunities and access to both financial and non-financial support. They aim to connect local entrepreneurs with the EIT community, facilitating their access to European markets, expertise, resources, and networks.
By acting as a bridge between Latvian businesses, industry, talent, venture-building initiatives, educational institutions, and the opportunities offered by EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs), the Hub aims to create a central platform for scaling innovative solutions, commercialising technological advances, and accessing critical knowledge and funding.
“We have launched a major initiative to create a central hub and unify our ecosystem around the importance of building an inclusive knowledge-based economy in Latvia. With EIT’s support, we will develop strategies and tools, both financial and non-financial, to continuously enhance our innovation ecosystem. Our goal is to provide quality opportunities and essential resources at every stage of business development. We will engage more stakeholders by forming international partnerships and sharing best practices, ultimately benefiting everyone in Latvia and strengthening the export potential side of the economic development.”
