Riga Conference's business forum to discuss security's role in economic growth
On September 9, the University of Latvia's Small Hall will host the Riga Conference Business Forum, focused on the role of security as a driver of growth. The event brings together entrepreneurs and other participants to discuss this connection.
On September 9, the Business Forum, part of the Riga Conference program, will take place at the Small Hall of the University of Latvia in Riga. This year's central theme is "Security as a Driver of Growth," reflecting growing interest in linking security issues to the economic development of both the state and businesses.
About the event
The forum is part of the broader annual Riga Conference series of events, which traditionally brings together representatives from various sectors to discuss topics relevant to the development of Latvia and the wider region. This time, the focus will be on how security aspects — whether geopolitical, economic, or otherwise — can serve as a foundation and stimulus for growth, rather than merely being viewed as a risk factor or a cost item.
The venue, the Small Hall of the University of Latvia, is known as a location that regularly hosts significant public discussions and conferences, including those connected to the Riga Conference, one of the largest security policy events in the Baltic region.
Detailed information about the forum's participants, speakers, or the specific content of the discussions is not provided in the source material, though the choice of theme itself suggests organizers aim to foster dialogue between the security and economic sectors.
