In order to help Latvia build closer cooperation with leading professionals and entrepreneurs living abroad, the University of Latvia’s Diaspora and Migration Research Center (LU DMPC) is implementing a study with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Latvia. Its purpose is to find out how to promote cooperation and networking in entrepreneurship and business with people of Latvian origin living abroad, as well as to find out the attitude and opinion of diaspora entrepreneurs and professionals about cooperation with Latvia – its obstacles, possible benefits and development directions.

If you are currently working outside of Latvia as a self-employed person, entrepreneur, leading specialist or manager in a private sector company, we invite you to participate in the survey!

The questionnaire takes about 15 minutes to fill out. If you have received an individual invitation to participate in the study from us, please use the individual survey questionnaire link sent to you by e-mail to fill out the survey.

If you have any questions about the progress of this research, please write to the LU DMPC research group at info@diaspora.lv. If you have any questions about the processing of survey data within the scope of this study, please ask them by writing to inta.mierina@lu.lv. Please read more about data security and the privacy policy here.
