CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, September 3, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — From 21 to 22 September 2023, the Institute of Economics of the Latvian Academy of Sciences will host the VI International Economic Forum. This year the main theme of the event will be “ОPEN INNOVATION: from the Creativity of the Individual to an Innovative Science-Based Economy”. The main knowledge partner of the forum is the well-known scientific and expert world center – the University of Berkeley (The University of California, Berkeley).

For two days, the Latvian Academy of Sciences will turn into a world-class center of expertise: outstanding scientists, entrepreneurs, and public figures will meet at the VI International Economic Forum. Over 20 panel discussions will be held during three plenary sessions on the most relevant topics: how to get access to the world’s best technologies and competencies? How to increase the effectiveness of open innovation in practice? How to choose effective tools for open innovation? How to promote the development of creativity and motivation at schools, universities, and enterprises? Also on the agenda are other actual themes that are designed to respond to the global challenges of the modern economy…

“The VI International Economic Forum is an authoritative and competent platform, which not only has a leading position in the Baltic and Northern European countries but also intends to take one of the most prestigious positions in the EU. The purpose of the forum is to promote the development of the business environment by drawing more attention to the study of obstacles that hinder the growth of entrepreneurship, as well as providing evidence-based recommendations for improving public administration and business support.

The forum serves as a platform for sharing best practices and cooperation between scientists, entrepreneurs, and politicians, stimulating the inflow of local and foreign investment, and developing an innovative national economy in the long term. It is important that the forum and the Latvian Academy of Sciences, in such a difficult geopolitical environment, become a bridge that brings together researchers, investors, and experts from the EU, Central Asia, the USA, India, as well as government officials.

We are united by the belief that today’s global challenges, if properly assessed and approached promptly, provide an opportunity to build a better future in all sectors of the economy and countries,” says Dr. Nina Linde, Director of the Institute of Economics of the Latvian Academy of Sciences.
