The topic will be featured in discussions on Wednesday, January 22 from 16:00–18:00.

“This marks the fourth year of the TOP101 insightful discussion series at SSE Riga, focusing on empowering Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) as key drivers of growth in the Baltic region. Panelists will examine the opportunities and barriers SMEs face in areas such as development, securing financing, and scaling their businesses. The conversation will offer an in-depth look at the complexities these businesses encounter — from accessing funding and navigating regulatory landscapes to fostering innovation and building resilience in a competitive market,” says advance material.

Speakers include LSM’s regular contributor, the renowned Danish economist Morten Hansen, an expert on the Baltic states.

The event is open to the public and free of charge, but attendees are asked to register in advance. If you are unable to attend in person, a livestream will also be available on the SSE website.
