At the beginning of February, we had the pleasure of welcoming Inga Ulmane, Economic and Trade Counsellor at the Embassy of the Republic of Latvia in Austria,<\/strong> to the Styrian Chamber of Commerce.<\/p>\n

Together with President Josef Herk, Honorary Consul Dr. Prof. Peter Grieshofer, ICS Managing Director Karl Hartleb<\/strong> and Sandra Tanos<\/strong>, we held a stimulating and highly valuable exchange with the Embassy Counsellor.<\/p>\n

The focus was on the importance of a united Europe and the wide range of opportunities for cooperation within the EU. Particularly exciting potential areas of cooperation between Latvia and Styria discussed included tourism, logistics, health & pharma, and mobility.<\/p>\n

Naturally, we also took the opportunity to provide insights into Styria\u2019s foreign trade activities as well as the broad range of initiatives of the Styrian Chamber of Commerce and the ICS Internationalisation Center Styria.<\/p>\n

It was an inspiring dialogue that further strengthens cross-border cooperation and networking!<\/p>\n

With around 2 million inhabitants, Latvia has been a member of the European Union since 2004 and is a reliable, committed partner within the European community. Covering 64,500 km\u00b2\u2014making it smaller than Bavaria\u2014the heavily forested country impresses with its strategic location, international openness, and a dynamically growing economy. Key export goods include wood and wood products, electrical machinery, and mineral fuels, with major target markets such as Lithuania, Estonia, Germany, and Sweden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
