eCom21 conference as the world in miniature - work and holiday
The forum is traditionally held under the
auspices of the Latvian bank Rietumu
– the regional leader in the field of e-commerce services.
“Our regular guests who arrive to eCom21 every year, around a third of all
participants, know that the conference is not limited to purely working
sessions and panel discussions. A not less important part of the conference is
the eventful and varied informal programme of each day,” says Vice-President of
Rietumu Bank Anna Panchenko.
As is well known, Riga eCom21 is a platform for business experts, who need not
only new and useful information, but also efficient networking, communication,
a possibility to exchange opinions, strike up new business acquaintances and
find business partners.
“Such an event, where like-minded people from all over the world gather, is an
ideal place for achieving all of these practical purposes. And we apply all
efforts to creating conditions where the participants have good opportunities
for communicating in the forum “fields”, where ideas are exchanged, new
cooperation opportunities arise and, at times, the foundations of a future
business are laid,” emphasises Anna Panchenko.
The daily programme of eCom21 changes every year, but what stays invariably the
same, is the traditional hospitality and the elegant style of social events
Riga is famous for.
On the first day, upon completion of the official part, an official reception
is scheduled in the recently opened Kempinski Hotel in the very heart of Riga.
The elite grand hotel is located in the historical building - at the end of the
19th century the famous Rome Hotel was located there, and in Soviet times the
not less prestigious Riga Hotel. Now the building has been fully reconstructed,
and its new interior, created by the architect A. Kravets, harmoniously
continues the classical traditions of elegant luxury from Kempinski with great
artistic taste.
The Last Night of eCom21 will be arranged in a different way. Its main intrigue
is kept secret by the organisers, but what is known, is that guests will watch
the original interactive show in one of the most unusual halls of the Old Town,
located virtually underground - under the City Hall Square, where spectators
can also take part.
“Preparation of an international conference is hard work, and we start
preparing for it practically as soon as the previous conference is completed.
We work on a good and eventful programme, which is focused not only on what is
important today, but also on what will be important tomorrow.
At the same time, we proceed from the fact that such an event will bring much
more benefit when its format is interesting, the environment is engaging, and
the interior and the environment - comfortable. To some extent, this is the
world, business and the entire life of a human being in miniature, and it is
great to work and live, when you do it with pleasure,” concludes Anna
Panchenko.
