NCCL Inspires: How to catch the Oscar?

And the Oscar goes to... What an inspiring way to launch NCCL Inspires, a new initiative by the Norwegian Chamber of Commerce in Latvia, bringing exceptional stories to our business community!

We were delighted to welcome Matīss Kaža, Producer of the Oscar-winning animated film Flow, who shared insights into the extraordinary journey behind this international success. From creative independence and smart decisions to international partnerships, persistence and thinking beyond borders, Flow offers takeaways that reach far beyond the world of film. The story of Flow is a powerful example of what can be achieved when you dare to think big, believe in your dream and have the courage to create something that resonates with the entire world.

Adding another exciting dimension to the evening, Matīss revealed that he is currently working on a new Latvian-Norwegian co-production. Something exciting to look forward to!

And perhaps the evening's most unexpected guest? Oscar himself! His special appearance certainly added a touch of charm to the occasion and, quite naturally, stole a little of the spotlight!

Our sincere thanks to Matīss Kaža for sharing his experience, Hotel Bergs Suites for their wonderful hospitality and support, and everyone who joined us for this inspiring evening.

With NCCL Inspires we want to create a platform for bringing together people who dare to dream, challenge boundaries, turn challenges into opportunities and make a difference in their industries and communities. Because inspiration is not just about celebrating what others have achieved. It is about asking ourselves what we can achieve next!
