On May 15–16, Riga is hosting the largest science-based technology event in the Baltics – Deep Tech Atelier. The conference brings together over 1,800 participants from more than 50 countries and serves as a platform where ideas, scientists, entrepreneurs, and investors meet.
At the conference opening, Minister of Economics Viktors Valainis emphasized:
"Innovation is essential to the competitiveness of our future economy, and Latvia continues to promote the development of artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, space, and defense sectors. All of these areas are interconnected and require bold ideas, smart people, and strong partnerships – and this platform helps turn ideas into real projects."
Parliamentary Secretary of the Ministry of Economics J. Miezainis highlighted during a panel discussion:
"The space industry is older than we often think. It has existed alongside humanity throughout all of recorded history. Today, space remains one of the biggest reactors and drivers of innovation, creating value for everyone."
The event also featured a startup pitch competition, an expo area, and investor presentations, offering numerous opportunities for networking and launching new business ventures.
