The year of 2018 is the centenary year of Restored State of Lithuania.

The 5-day programme includes lectures, workshops, Executive’s forum and International conference “Innovative (Eco-)Technology, Entrepreneurship and Regional Development” which will focus on technological and eco innovations, entrepreneurship and cooperation with social partnership.
Participants are expected to bring into the discussion examples from their own institutions and present best practices or innovative approaches to the issues addressed above.
