SORAINEN Latvia office assisted 28 members of the Latvian start-up community on a pro-bono basis in establishing the Latvian Start-up Association. The founding members include Uldis Leiterts, co-founder of Infogr.am and Fragmentic, the best drone of CES 2015 Airdog, Latvia’s oldest and biggest co-working space TechHub RigaLVCA, Latvia’s recent successful science exit Naco Technologies, and many other start-ups, organisations and individuals.

As remarked by Jekaterina Zaiceva, chair of the Latvian Start-up Association board, the ambition of the association is to help Latvia grow into “a hub of the north-eastern European startup movement”. SORAINEN Latvia advised the founders on choosing the optimal organisational structure for the association and helped with registration formalities.
