The goal of the initiative is to promote knowledge sharing and collaboration amongst entrepreneurs by providing opportunities to forge new business contacts, gain ideas and share experiences that help find valuable solutions in ever-changing circumstances.

To date, the Entrepreneur Experience Days platform has contributed to experience sharing amongst more than 1,300 businesses across Latvia, bringing together representatives from over 300 companies in 28 experience-sharing sessions last year alone. In the Experience Sharers section, companies are invited to host visits, discussions, tours or other types of events at their company, offering other companies the opportunity to attend these in order to expand their network of contacts and develop new ideas. Those who are interested to learn from the experience of others can sign up in the Experience Learners section by choosing the company and the offered Experience Day.
“The exchange of experience is one of the most valuable resources for business growth. We see that it is precisely this openness, this willingness to share both successes and the lessons learnt that helps entrepreneurs find new solutions, strengthen their competitiveness and develop collaborative partnerships. Over nine years, the Entrepreneur Experience Days have evolved into a significant platform for Latvia’s business community, demonstrating that, together, we can create a stronger and more resilient business environment. “During Patriot Month, we particularly wish to emphasise that every successful business contributes to Latvia’s growth and prosperity,” says Jevgenijs Ivanovs, Board Member and Head of Corporate Customer Division at Swedbank.
The Entrepreneur Experience Days are organised by Swedbank in collaboration with the Latvian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LTRK), Latvian Employer Confederation (LDDK) and the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia (LIAA) as part of the Global Entrepreneurship Week.
