Agenda:

Our guests will deliver a presentation on Energy Challenges caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. This lead to Latvia swiftly moving towards reducing energy dependency and imports from Russia.

Presentation will be followed by networking. Light appetizers and refreshments will be provided.
