CanCham will organize its work using a cluster approach. Clusters are special topic/interest groups that will focus on promoting the objectives of the groups. Members of a cluster will be those who have an interest in a topic and wish to participate in the group. To participate in a cluster, one must be a CanCham member, but members may invite guests to meetings. Meetings will be held in Riga and Toronto, but accommodations will also be made for those not able to attend meetings to involve them in these activities.
There will be two main programs:
1. Partnership for Profit
2. Governance
1. Partnership for Profit
