Estonian Business Awards in Lithuania 2025 — Call for Applications
Estonian entrepreneurship in Lithuania is getting a dedicated stage this year. The Embassy of Estonia in Lithuania, together with the Estonian Chamber of Commerce in Lithuania, has launched the Estonian Business Awards in Lithuania 2025—a new initiative recognising Estonian-owned companies that drive Lithuania’s economy, technological progress and social well-being. Two categories are open: Estonian Innovative Business Model Ambassador in Lithuania and Estonian Investment Leader in Lithuania.
Behind the awards is a clear purpose: to highlight innovation, sustainable business models and investment that deepen Estonian–Lithuanian cooperation. By showcasing concrete success stories, the organizers want to amplify the region’s reliability and competitiveness at a time when investors are scrutinizing stability and long-term value.
What’s in it for participating companies? Beyond the accolade itself, the programme brings public recognition, visibility in the Lithuanian market, and high-level networking with business leaders, officials and potential partners. Past experience shows that such spotlights also inspire peer companies to adopt innovative and sustainable practices—raising the bar across sectors.
The categories reflect two complementary strengths of Estonian business. The Innovative Business Model Ambassador honours firms that have successfully adapted a model created in Estonia to the Lithuanian market—capturing the spirit of digitalisation, efficiency and sustainability. The Investment Leader recognises companies whose capital commitments translate into jobs, technology upgrades and lasting economic value, grounded in responsible, sustainable practice.
Who can apply? Estonian-owned companies registered in Lithuania—either through self-nomination or nomination by partners, associations or public institutions (with the company’s consent). Submissions are open until 14 November 2025.
How to apply. Send applications by email to snieguole@estcham.lt in Word or PDF, signed by the CEO or an authorised person (qualified e-signature or scanned signature). Include a short company presentation and concise descriptions aligned to the chosen category’s criteria. Information is used solely for evaluation, and only content explicitly marked public will be disclosed. If anything is missing, you’ll be asked to supplement within three working days.
