💥 Latvia is gearing up for one of 2025's most exciting events: Expo 2025! 💥 From April 13 to October 13, Latvia 🇱🇻 and Lithuania 🇱🇹 will join forces in a unified Baltic Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka, Japan, the world’s premier event for enhancing national image, boosting exports, and addressing global social challenges. 🟩 On 13 November, our pavilion concept, "We Are One," was presented - an interactive experience blending nature, people, and technology. At its heart is the "Wall of the Future": a green glass installation symbolizing Earth and the lush Baltic forests. Created by the KETTLER consortium, this concept was chosen through a competitive process. Japan is the world's fourth-largest economy, with incredible potential for economic cooperation. 🤔 Yet only 11% of Japan's population currently knows about Latvia. We’re ready to change that by setting high ambitions for Expo 🎯: to double export turnover, increase Japanese investment in Latvia by up to 20x, and enhance our visibility overall. Through the Baltic Pavilion, we aspire to engage with millions by highlighting our innovations, technologies, and distinctive strengths while creating new avenues for partnership and growth. ℹ️ Read more: https://lnkd.in/dbb3AG6g Ekonomikas ministrija/ Ministry of Economics | DATU TEHNOLOĢIJU GRUPA | Variant Studio | Ozols Ir | 7 A.M. | Inspired Latvia | YES WE CAN #InvestinLatvia #missionLatvia #Expo2025 #WeAreOne
