The true spirit of Christmas is a spirit of giving. AmCham kicked off the holiday season with its Annual Christmas party and charity raffle. This year together we have raised EUR 1500 for three charities: Latvian Foster Family Association, RMHC Latvija's Care Mobile and SOS Children's Villages in Latvia.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs and Chair of AmCham EU discussed the priorities of the upcoming Latvian Presidency of the European Council with a focus on TTIP. Competitive Europe, Digital Europe and Engaged Europe will be the three pillars of the Presidency.

Members explored virtual reality at Giraffe360 with latest visualization technologies in a chill and peculiar start-up environment.

Robbie Vitrano, a successful and inspiring American entrepreneur, addressed AmCham members on how to embrace the entrepreneurial spirit.
