French Foreign Trade Advisors in Latvia
Business expertise and strategic dialogue in the service of the economic relationship between France and Latvia — for international development and long-term cooperation.
01About
CCEF Latvia brings together the Conseillers du Commerce extérieur de la France established in Latvia — executives and entrepreneurs appointed to place their field experience at the service of French public authorities and companies.
02France × Latvia
The relationship between France and Latvia can no longer be summed up by their shared membership of the European Union, NATO and the euro area. It is now being built through a growing number of concrete forms of cooperation: security, economy and investment, culture, education, research, innovation and partnerships between territories.
This momentum rests on institutions, companies, local authorities, universities and talent that are gradually developing new links between the two countries.
The French Foreign Trade Advisors in Latvia are part of this momentum: they bring their international experience and knowledge of the ground to inform companies, facilitate connections and contribute to the development of Franco-Latvian economic relations.
03Mission
The Conseillers du Commerce extérieur de la France are experienced business leaders and international experts who voluntarily contribute their expertise to France’s international economic development. Their action is structured around four official missions.
Providing public authorities, government bodies, regions and French embassies abroad with field intelligence, analyses, recommendations and practical insight on international trade, markets and economic developments.
Supporting companies in their international development through practical advice, long-term guidance, experience sharing and relevant introductions.
Sharing international experience and know-how with students and young professionals, and raising awareness of international careers and opportunities.
Promoting France’s economic strengths and helping to facilitate foreign investment decisions through relationships with business leaders and economic authorities in their countries of residence.
