Non-profit association · Since 2017

Our mission

We bring entrepreneurs together to learn from each other and to strengthen the region.

The association exists to develop the entrepreneurial environment of the Baltic and Nordic region: to make practical business knowledge accessible, to build trust between entrepreneurs across borders, and to support a culture of responsible, ethical business.

We are a membership-based non-profit. Our activities are financed by membership fees and partner contributions; every euro is used for the statutory goals of the association, not distributed as profit.

01

Knowledge exchange

Peer-to-peer learning between founders and executives: real cases, honest discussion and practical decisions instead of theory.

02

Cross-border cooperation

Connecting the business communities of Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius, Helsinki and Stockholm through joint meetings, visits and delegations.

03

Entrepreneurial culture

Promoting responsible leadership, ethical business conduct and mutual support as the norm of the regional business community.

Programmes

What we do for the wider community

Beyond member activities, the association runs two programmes that are open to entrepreneurs outside the club. They are the core of our public-benefit work.

Programme 01

Open Events

Public talks, business breakfasts and thematic sessions where experienced founders share what actually worked — and what did not. Open Events are our way of giving the region's entrepreneurs access to first-hand experience without a membership.

For whom
Entrepreneurs, managers and founders at any stage — membership not required.
What
CEO Talks, business breakfasts, AI Room sessions, panel discussions and event summaries published as articles.
Where
Tallinn (regularly), Riga, Vilnius and online.
Participation
Free or at cost by registration; announced on this site and in our newsletter.
Programme 02

Cross-Border Baltics

A programme that builds working relationships between the business communities of the five cities: joint meetings, business visits to leading companies of the region, entrepreneur delegations and partnerships with local business associations.

For whom
Business communities, associations and entrepreneurs from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Sweden.
What
Business tours, cross-border meetings, joint events with partner organisations, introductions between entrepreneurs of different countries.
Where
Tallinn – Riga – Vilnius – Helsinki – Stockholm.
Participation
Open to partner organisations and invited participants; contact us to join a delegation or host a visit.
