The Norwegian Chamber of Commerce in Latvia was pleased to be represented at the ABSL Latvia Summit 2026, where the NCCL Chair of the Board Svetlana Kočerova, General Manager of the DNB Latvia branch, joined an expert panel discussing the evolving role of location strategy in a world shaped by risk, resilience and geopolitics. The panel explored how changing global conditions are influencing the way organisations approach location strategy and shape their international operations. As the global business services landscape continues to evolve capabilities, trust and resilience are becoming increasingly important considerations for organisations when determining where and how to structure their operations. For the Baltics, this creates opportunities to further demonstrate the region’s expertise, talent and ability to deliver high-value services in an increasingly complex international environment. NCCL is grateful to ABSL Latvia for bringing together industry leaders and creating a platform for the discussion and exchange. The Summit provided an excellent opportunity to share perspectives, learn from fellow industry representatives and continue the conversation about the future of business services in the Baltics. NCCL looks forward to continuing to support dialogue and cooperation between the Norwegian and Latvian business communities and contributing to discussions shaping the region’s future.
