During the Vidzeme Innovation Week this year, we will also discuss innovations in the provision of social services. Listening to industry experts and opinion leaders, we will try to answer the questions: How good social services are formed? Who initiates them? Why do some of these services evolve and some “die”? Does technology help deliver social services? In what way? /Exactly how? How open are companies and organizations in the industry in implementing new and innovative services?

Are the bio-economy, circular economy, open data and innovative services only hot topics everybody use, or are they really hiding the answers? Are all of them seemingly unfamiliar, just on the agenda of individual countries, or do we have our own Latvian examples, which are both innovative and environmentally friendly and relevant to society and environmental ecosystem? What we have and what we lack? Does Vidzeme have power now and will it have power in the future? Let us talk about those resources that are seemingly numerous, but which still conceal unrealized potential.

The aim of the competition is to facilitate the development of economic activities, the emergence of new businesses and new jobs in Beverina County, providing support for the provision of new services or the production of new products.The support intensity is 80% and the maximum amount of backing per project is EUR 2000.
