DMC System |
The DMC system for business development between Latvia and Canada has been further developed with the addition of DMC Coordinators, and explained in http://cancham.lv/dmc/how-dmc-works (updated). Companies interested in exporting and developing strategic partnerships should take note. |
| “Show & Tell” member presentations evenings |
These events allows members and those interested in presenting to the CanCham to provide a five minute ppt presentation to both members and those interested in the particular subject. We will also invite Canadian companies to present via ZOOM. Four events are planned in the coming months.
Group leaders are assembling lists of presenters. Canadian companies are being approached to participate. |
| Special Recognition |
We wish to recognize those members who advance CanCham’s objectives by having signed up at enhanced membership levels:
|
Shadow program |
The International School of Riga is promoting internships, CAS and other volunteer opportunities for its older students. The CanCham has agreed to support this initiative and has named it “the Shadow program”. As the program develops, students will participate in CanCham in-person and ZOOM events. Member companies who wish to do so can arrange for students to be involved in their companies. Three students are now involved in this program. |
| Issue/Solution Process |
| This identifies member issues that should be presented to government deputies and officials for resolution using the method established by the CanCham, and is particularly aimed at those affected by the COVID-19 situation. If you wish government officials to know of specific issues your business has because of the effects of COVID-19, please contact Ed Kalvins at ed.kalvins@cancham.lv. |
