The leading committee of Sustainable Entrepreneurship in countryside met on 7.-8. February in Latvian region of Jelgava in a small tourist farm Viesu Lici.

With all eight partners of the project, the status was discussed and entreprenuer exchange pairs agreed. The dates of entrepreneur exchange will be announced in March 2017. The idea of entrepreneur exchange is to enable learning from each others’ experience and possibly cooperate in some areas.
