At the Annual Meeting of the Investors’ Forum association, members reviewed the results of the past year and presented the organisation’s priorities for the period ahead. The year was marked by steady growth, stronger leadership, and an increasingly prominent role in public discussions on key issues shaping the country’s development.

Over the past year, 16 new members joined the association, and today Investors’ Forum brings together more than 80 companies — leaders in their respective fields that create high added value for Lithuania’s economy. The association continues to strengthen its position as a trusted partner to public institutions and a constructive voice of business.

A significant development was the appointment of Vytautas Šilinskas as Executive Director one year ago. Under his leadership, the association has grown stronger both as a community and as a consistent, well-reasoned voice on the most important issues concerning the country’s development.

Over the past year, Investors’ Forum actively participated in discussions on tax reform, healthcare, education, security, and other key areas. The organisation’s goal remains unchanged — to help create the most attractive investment environment in Europe in Lithuania.

During the Annual General Meeting, the association’s Board was also renewed. It was joined by experienced business leaders:

• Auksė Žukauskienė, Head of Moody’s Lithuania,
• Chris Butler, Head of Citco Mercator,
• Nijolė Kvietkauskaitė, CEO of IKI Lietuva,
• Nerijus Nedzinskas, Managing Partner of PwC Lithuania.

The organisation’s expert base is also being strengthened, with economist and researcher Dr Adomas Klimantas joining the team. His extensive experience in analysing long-term economic growth, economic history, and the economics of migration will enable the association to further support its proposals with data and analysis.

Investors’ Forum will continue to focus on three main areas: strengthening an efficient public sector, building trust-based dialogue between business and government, and improving the talent development system.

The association remains committed to bringing the business community together and actively contributing to decisions that ensure Lithuania’s long-term competitiveness.
