The Lithuanian delegation is also actively promoting the “Life Science Baltic 2014” forum which will be held in Vilnius on September 10-12, 2014.
Intensive Lithuanian-Israeli cooperation in the field of life sciences started last year when a delegation of more than 100 businessmen and scientists from Israel attended the first life sciences forum in Vilnius “Life Science Baltic 2012” organized by “Enterprise Lithuania”. A keynote speech at the forum was made by Nobel Prize winner Israeli Professor Ada E. Yonatan.
Israeli companies are actively interested in Lithuania – venture capital funds and their companies are interested in investment opportunities, life science companies seek cooperation with Lithuanian companies in research, a number of Israeli companies are already conducting clinical trials of innovative products in Lithuania.
Recently signed agreement between the governments of Israel and Lithuania on bilateral cooperation in industrial research and development opens up new cooperation opportunities. According to the agreement joint projects of the Lithuanian – Israeli companies can be partially funded by the two states.
