Continuing a tradition spanning more than 30 years, the Liepāja Special Economic Zone Authority once again collaborated with artists this year to organise the small-scale plein-air event “Jūras elpa” (“Breath of the Sea”). The artworks created during the event will be exhibited at the Ludviķis Art Salon from 28 August to 10 October as part of an art competition and exhibition, where visitors will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite artwork.

The regular meeting of the Liepaja Special Economic Zone (Liepaja SEZ) Board was held on 19 August this year, at which seven decisions were adopted. These concerned conclusion of an investment agreement, pre-emption rights and approval of auction results. The Board also reviewed and decided to conclude an agreement on the implementation of the reconstruction project for Berth No. 46 and supported participation in the project “Science-Based Solutions for Promoting Climate-Resilient Adaptation of the Baltic Sea Coast.” In addition, the Board amended previously adopted decisions concerning security services and digitalization processes for data processing and analysis.

The Liepaja Special Economic Zone (SEZ) Authority is continuing to improve the infrastructure needed by the fishing industry by constructing an access road to Berth No. 92 at the Port of Liepaja.

Stevedoring company “Mols L” is constructing a new approximately 5,000-square-metre warehouse at the Port of Liepaja, significantly expanding its storage capacity. The total investment amounts to approximately EUR 1.55 million.

“Liepaja has strong potential for the development of the defense industry,” Defense Minister Raivis Melnis said following a one-day working visit to Liepaja.
