VIDZEME INNOVATION WEEK 2020: 24 - 28 FEBRUARY
For the first time, Innovation Week is organized in Vidzeme. The Vidzeme Planning Region encourages to integrate innovation into daily life and to change the notion that innovation is only about technology or programming. Vidzeme Innovation Week is an ensemble of events that take place throughout the region within five days, aiming to encourage existing and future employees, entrepreneurs and managers to see the potential of innovation in their everyday work. Sometimes it is necessary to encourage, sometimes – to meet the right people, sometimes – to get the confirmation that it is time to act!
Innovation begins with a change in thinking. Vidzeme is changing.
Listen, find out, meet your researcher or a new partner. The Innovation Week is a platform for new initiatives and new goals.
Innovation can be present in any company, farm, and even public administration. Everything starts with a desire to change. And no matter who you are – an employee, an entrepreneur, auxiliary worker, an idea generator or a researcher. Be brave and look around! See and evaluate what opportunities are there for you!
Innovation is not just high-tech solutions, and it can be affordable for everyone. The resource that is at your disposal hides more value than you would initially expect. Just look at it from a different angle. Sometimes the invented wheel stands just behind the corner – take it as a basis and proceed!
Crowded conferences and seminars are not rare. But how much of what we have heard we have also tried to incorporate into our daily lives? What matters to us is doing. There are no borders, neither for opportunities nor for innovation. Get started!
The 17 Sustainable Development Goals endorsed by the United Nations (UN) are binding on everyone, both nationally and individually. Success is in the interest of us all, both now and in the future.
Taken together, the chosen objectives have the potential to stimulate innovation, strengthen economic growth and development. In addition, they show new business directions.
It is clear that the usual business environment needs to change in order to achieve its goals.
In order to achieve the intended results and discover new business opportunities, it is necessary to strengthen knowledge and contacts, and competitors will need to become partners.
There’s No I In Team.
Vidzeme Planning Region draws attention to three sustainable development goals during Vidzeme Innovation Week 2020.
In order to promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, Vidzeme region attaches special importance to strengthening the capacities and knowledge of small and medium-sized enterprises. We strive to create a business environment that encourages companies to be ambitious - to harness the potential of science and research, to make innovations everyday, to be creative and to focus on high value-added end products. But do so in a responsible way, respecting the environment and not harming your fellow human beings.
The infrastructure and innovation capacity of the industry are essential for maintaining sustainability. The infrastructure must be of good quality, reliable, sustainable and sustainable. There is tremendous potential in collaboration, the ability to share and see business opportunities, not just in commodity trading, but also to offer unique technologies and skills as a service. Internationalization is not just an export, many resources and infrastructure can be found in foreign markets and can be used for business development and prosperity in the region.
We have resources in our hands that are unlocking untapped potential. Combined with responsible consumption patterns and improved production models, it is possible to ensure sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources. Be aware of the residues that can be transformed into new products or minimize them, attract scientists, try or adapt new technologies, or create your own unique - it's interesting, responsible, and promising. It is the beginning of a quality life on Earth and new business ideas.
