The Forum

Published: 14 July 2003 y., Monday
The American Lithuanian Business Forum held in Vilnius attracted many well-known American businessmen of Lithuanian origin to Lithuania to participate in the discussions on how to promote mutually beneficial and profitable business ties between Lithuania and America and look for new business opportunities. ”It would be wrong not to take advantage of the experience and contacts of American Lithuanians who are successful in the U.S.A. as they can help Lithuanian businessmen to better understand American business traditions and take advantage of the demanding but very attractive possibilities of the US market”, said Vygaudas Usackas, Ambassador of the Republic of Lithuania to the U.S.A. The Forum was organized by the Embassy of the Republic of Lithuania to the U.S.A., the Association American Chamber of Commerce in Lithuania and the Lithuanian Development Agency and aimed at presenting and discussing business expansion possibilities in Lithuania as well as providing an opportunity to make and promote business ties between US and Lithuanian business representativemen. The Forum received a strong support from Rolandas Paksas, President of Lithuania, Algirdas Brazauskas, Prime Minister as well as many other outstanding Lithuanian and American personalities and businessmen.
