During business breakfast we will be discussing how to help social business and innovations grow in Lithuania, and how businesses can be more actively involved into creation of meaningful social change.

We will get to know the ways of the Swedish, who improved the results of math exams, and of the Danish, helping children with dyslexia, and of Latvians, engaging children from small rural areas into extra curricular activities, and many more. What do they have in common? What does it take for social innovations to foster in Lithuania?

The event will be attended by social innovators from Lithuania and Latvia, Impact Manager of Reach for Change Ida Johansson, and partners of the Game Changer campaign in Lithuania – TELE2, TV3, The Ella fund and The Nordic Council of Ministers Office in Lithuania.

National competition Game Changer is being organised for the 6th time. The best social business ideas are selected and awarded with financial and expert support.

Venue: The Nordic Council of Ministers in Lithuania (Didžioji g. 5)
Time: November 21st, 9.00-10:30h.
