About us

The objective of the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia (LIAA) is to promote business development by facilitating more foreign investment, in parallel increasing the competitiveness of Latvian entrepreneurs in both domestic and foreign markets. Having more than 15 years experience in the attraction of foreign direct investment to Latvia and promotion of foreign trade, the Agency has worked constantly to improve the business environment and provided services appropriate to the needs of business.

At the same time LIAA has been evaluating its own performance, comparing it with world best practices, and subsequently introducing new services and solutions for our customers.

 The main priorities of the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia are to increase the competitiveness of entrepreneurs and promote further of foreign investment.

After Latvia’s accession to the EU, the Agency needed to adopt new methods and tools, including the effective utilisation of resources from EU Structural funds. Today LIAA offers an integrated solution – it supports companies in Latvia trading internationally, as well as overseas businesses seeking partners or locations in Latvia; administrates state support programmes for entrepreneurs, co-financed from EU Structural funds.

An ability to anticipate the rapidly changing needs of businesses and markets by offering new services characterises the Agency’s own competitiveness, built on the knowledge and competencies of our experienced specialists.
